About us

Breakthroughs in genetics and the development of patient-centric healthcare make science-based personalized nutritional solutions possible: the surge of chronic disease, with huge economic and human costs - is fuelling demand for their application, creating a new market between Food and Pharmaceuticals. Announced in September 2010 and operational since January 2011, Nestlé Health Science and Nestlé Institute of Health Sciences bring a competitively differentiating combination of capabilities and ambition, geared towards pioneering the development of science-based personalised nutritional solutions.

We aim to bring a new dimension to the nutrition, health and wellness strategy of Nestlé Group by pioneering the development and application of evolving science to create a new role for nutrition in disease prevention and management. In so doing we can play a key role in stemming the rising tide of chronic disease in our increasingly ageing, sedentary societies, relieving the cost burden of chronic disease and transforming the quality of lives of millions. Thus we can create a major growth opportunity for the Group.
