The World Health Organisation (WHO) reported in 2017 that the prevalence of chronic energy deficiency (CED) among pregnant women worldwide ranged from 35-75%. According to the 2018 Riskesdas, the prevalence of CED among pregnant women in Indonesia was 17.3%, and the province of West Java was 14.1%. This prevalence is still above the target of the 2020-2024 Strategic Plan with target 10%. One of the intervention carried out is the provision of additional food.

F3 is the best formula that is favoured by the panellists.
