Alika Nutrition is the result of a passionate professional quest to improve diet in all kinds of circumstances and for different stakeholders. Our goal is to provide healthy food products by combining excellent nutritional profiles with ease of use and versatility.

The founding of our company was based on a few facts:

• Many years ago, as a physician, one of the founders was intrigued to see her father's muscle mass gradually decline as he aged, without any serious underlying illness. Protein deficiency is one of the risk factors for sarcopenia. This term ' sarcopenia' to describe age-related loss of muscle mass was first introduced in 1988.

• Protein deficiency can also be problematic for elderly people who follow a one-sided diet based mainly on sweet comfort foods. This may be the case for both independently living elderly people and elderly people in care homes. The key is optimizing daily protein intake and this is where Alika Nutrition can help by providing the ingredients for a nutritious meal.

• Another important event occurred a few years ago when one of the founders became a doctor for a Belgian non-profit organization that carries out medical humanitarian missions in Africa. The diet of a large part of the African population is often one-sided and insufficient. We also noticed that mission members often bring all kinds of food from home (with the associated logistical problems) simply out of uncertainty about what could be purchased locally.

Because we want to be part of the solution to these problems, Alika Nutrition developed protein-rich products to which only water needs to be added to easily prepare a nutritious and tasty meal.
