FIEO
Severe Acute Malnutrition (SAM) is one of the most urgent public health challenges, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Millions of children under the age of five are at risk of life-threatening consequences due to malnutrition, including stunted growth, compromised immunity, cognitive delays, and death. Addressing this crisis requires therapeutic nutrition products that are safe, effective, and aligned with global health guidelines.
F-100, a high-energy, micronutrient-dense therapeutic food, is specifically formulated for the stabilization and recovery phase of SAM. As a WHO-recommended formula used in community-based and clinical management of malnutrition, F-100 plays a crucial role in helping children regain lost weight and nutritional status.
BluepillExpress, a certified third-party pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturer, specializes in the formulation and production of F-100 Starter Diet Nutrition. We provide reliable, high-quality, and compliant third-party manufacturing services to NGOs, governments, healthcare institutions, and brands working in the field of humanitarian nutrition and child health.
What Is F-100?
F-100 is a therapeutic milk-based formula used during the rehabilitation phase of SAM treatment in children. It contains a precise ratio of macronutrients and essential micronutrients that facilitate rapid weight gain and recovery following initial stabilization.
The key components of F-100 include:
- High-energy content (~100 kcal/100 ml)
- Proteins from milk to support muscle and tissue rebuilding
- Fats for energy and essential fatty acids
- Carbohydrates for quick energy replenishment
- Electrolytes and minerals to correct imbalances
- Vitamins to support immune function and growth
F-100 is used after a child has been stabilized with F-75, the initial therapeutic formula, and is ready to begin the weight gain and recovery process.
