About Follow-up Milk
Follow-up milk is a reliable partner that
supplements the nutrients that tend to be
deficient in weaning diets.
As babies move to having three solid baby meals a day and become more active―crawling and pulling themselves up―they tend to lack the essential nutrients, such as iron and calcium, from meals alone.
This is where follow-up milk complements weaning diets to provide essential nutrients.
About Meiji Step Nutrition
Provides total support for the essential nutrients that are difficult to get from everyday meals and cow's milk alone!
