Danone Nutricia Research joins EIT’s Food4Health MuscleCancer project

World Prematurity Day on 17 November is an important opportunity to shine a light on the health challenges.

Defined as a baby who is born before 37 weeks, preemies have immature immune system and are more susceptible to infections. With growth expectations up to five times higher than term born peers2, sleep and adequate nutrition play an important role in helping preterm children to fight off bugs effectively on their own and ensure they grow up to be healthy individuals.

Continuous research is important, as not only do we see a trend towards a growing prevalence in food allergy, but also a rise in severity of the allergy.
