Embodiment 1

[0099] Human milk samples collected from male infants or mothers of female infants at various postpartum stages were analyzed for α-lactalbumin concentration. Human milk samples were collected as part of a cross-sectional survey of human milk. The research criteria are as follows:

[0100] research population

[0101] ·Number of subjects

[0102] A total of 540 healthy subjects were enrolled, allowing for a 10% dropout rate. Subject composition:

[0103] – 480 lactating mothers in 3 cities (Beijing, Suzhou and Guangzhou)

[0104] – 5 time points (5 to 11 days, 12 to 30 days, 1 to 2 months, 2 to 4 months and 4 to 8 months postpartum), with 30 mothers per city for each time point.

[0105] Inclusion / Exclusion Criteria

[0106] · Inclusion: Healthy Chinese lactating mothers with no history of acute and chronic diseases; mothers who were fully breastfeeding 4 months after delivery.

[0107] Exclusions: Chinese lactating mothers with a history of psychiatric illness and ...

Abstract

Gender specific synthetic nutritional compositions for infants of up to 2 months of age wherein, the concentration of alpha-lactalbumin is adapted based on that found in HM produced for an infant of the same gender and age, and nutritional systems comprising them.

Description

[0001] Technical field: [0002] The present invention relates to sex-specific synthetic nutritional compositions, nutritional systems comprising such compositions and their use in providing optimal nutrition and / or one or more health benefits to infants. Background technique [0003] While breastfeeding is the optimal way to feed an infant, the presence of certain conditions may mean that breastfeeding is contraindicated (American Academy of Pediatrics, 2012; Lawrence, 2013 (AAP, 2012; Lawrence, 2013)). In situations where infants cannot utilize this sole source of nutrition, alternative strategies for feeding infants must be devised. One such strategy is to feed infants synthetic nutritional compositions (eg, infant formula). [0004] The composition of the aforementioned synthetic nutritional composition aims to replicate the composition of human milk. However, replicating human milk is no easy task. Human milk not only contains multiple components, but its composition i...
