KEY ACQUISITIONS
The acquisition of Vitaflo - based in Liverpool, UK - has enabled Nestlé Health Science to establish a position in the fast growing market for products exclusively formulated for various congenital metabolic disorders that become apparent shortly after birth.
The metabolic disorders affecting people do not have the enzymes needed to break down the fat, carbohydrates or food protein, resulting in serious health problems and often requiring a specialized diet and nutritional solutions for life.
Vitaflo's nutritional solutions help maintain or restore patients' metabolic homeostasis, often occupying the most important role in disease management. The development of products with pleasant flavors that are easy and conveniently to use is an important factor in promoting adherence to protocols during a highly restrictive diet. It should be noted that these products are always administered under medical supervision.
