Stunting is a significant issue among Filipino children, yet it often goes unnoticed. According to recent data, 5 in 10 Filipino children are stunted and at risk of stunting. Alarmingly, 2 out of 3 mothers do not recognize stunting in their children. Therefore, it is important to take proactive steps in measuring the height of children and intervening early to help them catch-up on growth.

A complete, balanced oral nutrition supplement like PediaSure Plus® can play a crucial role in helping address and prevent stunting. It is enriched with essential nutrients that support optimal growth and development, ensuring children reach their full height potential.

Milk for Height Growth: Ensuring Good Height and Growth

A child's height-for-age is a good indicator of healthy growth and proper nutrition. When children do not receive the nutrients, rest, and support they need, their growth can be affected, making it harder for them to reach their full height potential.
Two key factors that support healthy growth are:
- Proper nutrition
- Adequate sleep

Children who consistently receive the right nutrients and healthy daily habits are better positioned to grow, stay active, and keep up with their peers.

One of the most important steps parents can take is to provide complete and balanced nutrition scientifically designed with growth nutrients every day. Along with three balanced meals, PediaSure Plus® helps support growth with specialized nutrition designed for children at risk of growth gaps.

Not all milk for height growth are the same to support faster growth in children

PediaSure Plus® is scientifically formulated with the PeptiGro System of Casein Phosphopeptides (CPPs), Natural Vitamin K2, added Arginine and 37 growth nutrients to help children at risk reach their full growth potential.

Unlike regular kids' milk, PediaSure Plus® provides comprehensive nutrition that supports 2x growth improvement (vs no nutritional supplementation; with three balanced meals and exercise). By incorporating PediaSure Plus® into your child's diet, you can ensure they receive the essential nutrients needed to maximize their growth potential and achieve a healthier, taller stature.
