Designed to contribute to women’s fertility and ease some of the pregnancy-related symptoms women may experience
Nestlé has unveiled two new nutritional solutions, Materna Pre and Materna Nausea, designed to contribute to women’s fertility and ease some of the pregnancy-related symptoms women may experience, such as nausea and vomiting.
The demand for solutions to support women’s health is growing, with the market expected to record high single-digit growth over the next three years. Critical gaps exist when it comes to addressing specific needs related to conception, digestive discomforts during pregnancy as well as post-partum recovery. For example, up to 70 per cent of pregnant women experience nausea and vomiting during the first trimester of pregnancy, or throughout their entire pregnancy. Women require specific nutrients to help them address these challenges. Launching these new products aims to capture the opportunities of this underserved and promising market.
Serena Aboutboul, Senior Vice-President and Head of the Nutrition Business at Nestlé said, “Scaling up our maternal health offerings is a strategic business priority. Our expansion of the Materna range with these two new products reflects our commitment to providing women with tailored, science-based nutrition products and supporting them before conception, during pregnancy and after childbirth. This will ultimately help enhance health outcomes for mothers and their babies.”
The new Materna Nausea, which contains natural ginger and vitamin B6, is scientifically proven to reduce the severity of nausea and vomiting during pregnancy.
The company will launch the new products in Latin America in 2025, with plans to expand to other Zones and geographies later.
