23 Nov 2015 --- DSM Nutritional Products hosted a special event alongside the 9th Developmental Origins of Health and Disease (DOHaD) World Congress in Cape Town, South Africa. The event highlighted the prominent role nutrition-related solutions play in addressing key global health concerns in developing infants, and how these solutions also help to ensure a better quality of life. Lectures by three leading scientists outlined micronutrient requirements necessary during the first 1,000 days of an infant’s development, this period being the time between the start of pregnancy and the child’s second birthday.
