WHY ALANNA STAGE 2 INFANT FORMULA?

• AIanna IF has aII the nutritionaI ingredients required for a baby's deveIopment
• Inadequate nutrition has a direct impact on a chiId's development and growth and is the major cause of malnutrition and aIso micro- nutrient deficiencies (such as Vitamin A, Iron, Iodine, Zinc and other essential micro-nutrients)
