November 29, 2024,Bangalore(S.N): Dutch Medical Food B.V., a global leader in medical nutrition, in partnership with Pristine Pearl Pharma Pvt. Ltd., proudly announces the launch of specialized nutritional products targeting respiratory diseases at the National Pulmonary Conference (NAPCON) 2024 in India.

These innovative solutions are designed to support patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and other respiratory conditions, addressing critical nutritional challenges that impact recovery and quality of life. COPD, which affects approximately 55.3 million people in India, is one of the leading causes of disability and death; and is often accompanied by severe malnutrition that worsens health outcomes.

Patients with COPD frequently suffer from malnutrition, which exacerbates muscle loss, decreases energy levels, and compromises overall health. “Respiratory diseases like COPD often lead to severe nutritional deficiencies that undermine patients’ recovery and resilience,” said Dr. Guru Ramanathan, Co-founder of Dutch Medical Food. “Our solutions bridge this gap, offering vital nutritional support alongside standard treatments.”

This launch signifies a new era in personalized nutrition to address disease-related malnutrition in India. “By introducing these solutions at NAPCON, we aim to empower India’s healthcare professionals with effective nutritional tools that integrate into treatment protocols,” said Dr. Rolf Smeets, co-founder of Dutch Medical Food.

A Collaborative Mission to Enhance Patient Care Dutch Medical Food’s scientific expertise combines with Pristine Pearl’s understanding of India’s healthcare landscape, ensuring these innovative products meet the specific needs of Indian patients. Mr. S.M. Ayoob, Managing Director of Pristine Pearl, stated, “This launch reflects our commitment to providing high-quality, evidence-based nutritional solutions to enhance patient outcomes across the country.”
