Nestlé and Dr. Lilac call for science to help growth and development

News from this newspaper, since the "Healthy China 2030" Planning Outline and the National Nutrition Plan (2017-2030) have clearly put forward relevant requirements such as focusing on strengthening the construction of healthy schools and carrying out actions to improve student nutrition, balanced diet and nutrition for students have become a social issue.

The "Report" shows that 77% of parents do not know the exact time of the golden period for height growth, so they cannot scientifically help their children's height development; 95% of parents do not have a comprehensive understanding of the factors affecting height, nor do they have a comprehensive understanding of genetics and nutrition.

"More than half of the parents believe that the child's current height does not meet their expectations
