Unlocking Your Child’s Potential with Enfagrow A+ MindPro

By the age of five, children are at a pivotal stage where 90% of their brain development has already occurred, setting the groundwork for their future endeavours. As the main decision parent who prioritizes their children’s health, providing them with the best nutrition becomes imperative.

Enfagrow A+ MindPro contains a breakthrough ingredient called Milk Fat Globule Membrane (MFGM). Research shows that children who consume MFGM-enriched milk formula have significantly higher mental performance on the Full-Scale IQ score. MFGM enables faster brain stimulation, hence increasing the child’s brain performance in processing information. This benefit is long-lasting, extending beyond 5 years, to prepare children to be future-ready and successful with long-term higher mental (IQ) and emotional (EQ) development. This component, crucial for brain growth and immunity, works synergistically with brain-nutrient DHA, providing children with a long term advantage for both (IQ) and (EQ) advancement. This combination enhances cognitive development and fosters better emotional regulation, aiding children in navigating social situations more effectively.

“What sets Enfagrow A+ MindPro apart is its unique ability to incorporate MFGM into children’s milk formulas,” says Choy Yee. “As a mother, I understand the importance of giving children the best possible start. At Enfagrow A+ MindPro, we’re dedicated to supporting mothers in this journey by offering innovative nutritional products for children backed by scientific research. Through our scientifically formulated products, mothers can trust that they’re giving their children the tools they need to thrive mentally and emotionally, setting them up for success in the years to come.”

“We believe that with Enfagrow A+ MindPro, parents can help unleash their children’s potential, nurturing them to be a step ahead of others to be school-ready and future-ready. It’s not just about providing nutrition; but about empowering children to thrive and succeed in every aspect of life”
