Dr. Russell James MerrittDr. John S., Director of the Center for Nutritional Support and Digestive Recovery at Children's Hospital Los Angeles, California (USA), recounts that during consultations with parents on how to help children catch up on healthy growth, he discovered that the most effective method is a combination of dietary counseling and maintaining oral nutritional supplementation (ONS). This method helps children absorb calories and micronutrients more efficiently, while catching up on growth and maintaining healthy, stable development even after the counseling program has ended.

A large-scale study in 2013 showed that supplementing with oral nutrition twice daily for 48 weeks consistently provided children with adequate and balanced nutrition, meeting at least 50% of the essential nutrients for growth and immune system development.

According to doctors, both being overweight or underweight indicate an unhealthy growth pattern. Therefore, parents need to be aware of the importance of a scientific diet, especially during the embryonic stage and early childhood. This will allow for early intervention to support children, reducing the incidence of short-term nutrition-related diseases and negative impacts on long-term development.
