Nestle has introduced the new Milo Nutri Pluz in Malaysia offering 2x calcium & Vitamin D compared to Milo UHT. While Milo Nutri Pluz is less sweet with a milkier taste, Milo UHT is more chocolatey which meets different consumers’ taste preferences.
According to Nestle, a 7-9 years old child needs 1,000mg of calcium and 15µg of vitamin, while a child aged 10-12 needs 1,300mg of calcium and 15µg of vitamin D, based on Recommended Nutrient Intakes (RNI) for Malaysia 2017.
1 serving of Milo Nutri Pluz (200ml) provides 240mg Calcium and 4µg Vitamin D respectively, which means 1 serving of Milo Nutri Pluz meets 24% (7-9yo) or 18% (10-12yo) of the daily calcium and 26% of the daily vitamin D requirement.
At the moment, 1 in 2 Malaysian children experiences calcium & Vitamin D deficiency.
