Start Healthy, Stay Healthy™
Our unwavering commitment to nourish a healthier generation, one baby at a time.
As a parent it's your top priority to keep your child happy and healthy. And as parents who happen to work for the makers of GERBER® products and NESTLÉ® GOOD START® formulas, it's ours too.
In 2002 we took our first step to respond to the rising number of overweight children. We conducted the Feeding Infants and Toddlers Study (FITS), a survey of the eating habits of 3,000 infants and toddlers in the United States. Together with the American Dietetic Association, we published the results, one of which was poor eating habits at surprisingly early ages. We found that french fries were the most commonly eaten vegetable at only 15 months! And 7-month-olds were drinking soda!
This groundbreaking research created a passion to do something more. That's why we've pledged to help nourish a healthier generation, one baby at a time. Every day, we make your child's nutrition our priority by:
Conducting clinical trials and pediatric nutrition research at our Nestlé Research Center—and in more than 15 countries worldwide.
Continually improving the nutrition of our products
