ELSE NUTRITION HOLDINGS INC.
(BABY.V)
(BABYF)
(0YL.F) ("Else" or the
"Company") the Plant-Based baby, toddler and
children nutrition company has identified Pediatricians as a key
partner in working with parents to provide better nutrition for
their kids.
According to the American Academy of Pediatrics,
there are 67,000 Pediatricians in the United States, and several
thousand in Canada, caring for over ~17 million infants and
toddlers. This equates to every Pediatrician impacting over 200
kids per year! These clinicians are experts in assessing the health
and development of their patients, and in providing meaningful
advice to parents, especially when it comes to feeding their child.
Data shows that nearly 9 out of 10 parents consult their
Pediatricians for a specific recommendation related to nutritional
products for their children. These parents are seeking expert
advice on what they should and should not be feeding their children
for optimal growth, development, and health.
With that in mind, and also recognizing that the
majority of physicians receive minimal training on nutrition during
Medical School and Residency, there is an opportunity to support
their continuing nutrition medical education post graduation.
Market research among Pediatricians has identified that there are
many misconceptions regarding the benefits of plant-based nutrition
for toddlers and children, leading to an opportunity to help
educate this directly.
Else Nutrition is committed to creating
education programs which will demonstrate that plant-based
nutrition can deliver the same nutritional benefits for healthy
growth and development as dairy-based alternatives. These programs
will serve as a significant importance when Else Nutrition launches
the first non-dairy, non-soy plant-based infant formula.
Several key initiatives have recently been
launched to the Healthcare Community in the US, including:
- Website – New
website at hcp.elsenutrition.com allows Pediatricians to
easily get the answers to their questions, order product samples
and access the full library of professional resources for all Else
products.
- Digital Outreach –
A variety of outreach programs including email, social, and digital
programs are being leveraged to share news, invite participation,
and create awareness.
- Parent Sampling –
Parents are starting to consult Pediatricians about plant-based
options and Else Nutrition specifically, so we have created patient
materials and sample kits for doctors to hand out to parents as
they discuss nutritional options.
- Conferences – Half
of all Pediatricians attend at least 1 conference per year, where
they learn about new brands, innovations, and data to help support
them. Else will be there as well to share new data and patient
programs for Pediatricians to take back to their practice.
- Clinical Studies –
Else has already initiated a significant clinical research program,
with over 30 centers, using Else products among the intended
patient population.
This is just the start, Else is committed to
developing other programs that will help Healthcare Professionals
and parents to make the right choice about plant-based formulas and
supplements for their children. Some of these key programs
include:
- Continuing Medical
Education – Required annually for all healthcare
professionals, Else will look to provide resources to these
professional to learn more about whole food plant-based nutrition
and receive the credit required to maintain their licenses.
- Speaker Programs –
Else continues to work with world-renowned Pediatricians to support
development of these programs so other Pediatricians can learn from
a well-respected physician regarding the science of Else
products.
- Association
Partnerships – Most Pediatricians are part of one or more
medical associations, and Else will partner with these
organizations to publish information and help educate their
clinician members.
- Innovative
Programs – We continue to explore a variety of new ways to
interact with and educate Pediatricians, which has been shown to be
critically important during COVID.
