One is the most ‘Innovative Pediatric Nutraceutical Brand’ award at the 5th edition of the Nutrition & Wellness 2019’ conference organised by CIMS Medica and the other is ‘Emerging Pediatric Nutraceutical Brand’ by ET Now – Rise with India, for excellence in the healthcare category, a company release said.
The annual conference ‘Nutrition and Wellness 2019’ acknowledge the proactive and innovative approaches undertaken by companies and is dedicated to propelling innovation by encouraging healthy competition amongst companies. ET Now-Rise with India is one of the most trusted platforms that recognizes par-excellent contributions made by organisations in their respective sectors.
Expressing gratitude at receiving the two accolades, Suresh T L, Business Director – Pharmaceuticals Division, The Himalaya Drug Company, said, “Being a wellness partner to consumers, we understand that there is a need to include macro- and micro-nutrients in everyday diet, which is inadequate now. This causes a deficiency of vitamins and minerals, leading to ‘Hidden Hunger’ in children, limiting their growth and development. Quistakidz have scientifically researched nutrition and time-tested traditional ingredients to support growth and development in children.”
The ‘Nutrition & Wellness 2019’ conference, organised by CIMS Medica, recognises excellence in the nutraceutical industry under various domains such as research & development, manufacturing, packaging, distribution, etc. Their aim to recognise excellence in the healthcare industry has taken a step forward. Along with healthcare providers, the platform now also recognises wellness providers whose work contributes to the vision of a healthy India in the real sense.
Suresh added, “We are honoured to have received such recognitions in the first year of the launch itself. This is a big motivation to continue innovating and meeting consumer needs with our exceptional in-house research strengths”.
Quistakidz, infused with the goodness of herbal ingredients, is a blend of milk protein, which supports growth; ginger, which improves digestion; and inulin, a prebiotic fiber that improves gut health. It also includes colostrum, Tulasi, and vitamins like A, C, and E, which are known to build immunity, and Folic acid, Vitamin B12, Iron, Iodine, along with Almond and Mandukaparni that are known to help improve memory.
