Embodiment Construction

[0011] Accordingly, the present invention relates to a method for promoting the postnatal growth trajectory or physical development of an infant to approximate a growth trajectory or physical development similar to that observed in human milk-fed infants, said The method comprises administering to the infant a nutritional composition selected from infant formula and second stage formula, wherein the nutritional composition comprises 3 g to 7 g lipid / 100 kcal, 1.25 g to 5 g protein / 100 kcal and 6 g to 18 g digestible carbohydrate / 100kcal, and wherein said nutritional composition comprises lipid globules having the following characteristics

[0012] a) a mode diameter of at least 1.0 μm based on volume and / or a diameter of 2-12 μm based on an amount of at least 45% by volume of total lipids, and / or

[0013] b) has a phospholipid coating at least partially on the surface.

[0014] In one embodiment, a growth trajectory or physical development similar to that observed in a human...

Abstract

The present invention relates to formulae for infants comprising large lipid globules and / or lipid globules with a coating of phospholipids for rendering the growth trajectory or body development during the first year of life more similar to that observed for human milk fed infants.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to infant nutrition, in particular infant formula, intended to be used as the sole source of nutrition. Background technique [0002] When it comes to infant nutrition, human milk is the undisputed gold standard. However, in some cases, breastfeeding is insufficient or unsuccessful for medical reasons or because of choosing not to breastfeed. For these situations, infant formulas or follow on formulas have been developed. Today, commercial infant formulas are commonly used to provide a supplemental or sole source of nutrition early in life. These formulas contain a range of nutrients to meet the nutritional needs of a growing infant and typically contain fats, carbohydrates, proteins, vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients that contribute to optimal infant growth and development. Commercial infant formulas are designed to mimic the composition and function of human milk as closely as possible. [0003] It has long bee...
