The present invention relates to an amino acid-based nutritional formulation comprising, per 100 g total amino acids, between about 4.5 and about 5 g glutamate. The ratio of cysteine:methionine is in the range of about 0.9:1 to about 1:1.2. The nutritional formulation may also comprise a lipid source, a carbohydrate source, an emulsifier comprising CITREM or DATEM, and amino acids, wherein glutamate is present in an amount of between about 4.5 and about 5 g per 100 g total amino acids.

Amino acid-based nutritional formulations

The present invention relates to a liquid human milk supplement comprising a protein component, a fat component, a carbohydrate component, vitamins, and minerals, where the pH of the human milk supplement is between about 4.0 and 4.6.

Acidified liquid human milk supplement

An emulsifying system for elemental diet compositions is provided that contains a protein source that may be a extensively hydrolyzed protein, free amino acids, short-chain peptides, or a mixture thereof; a lipid source; a carbohydrate source; and an emulsifying system comprising an ocentyl succinic anhydride modified starch and an acetylated monoglyceride emulsifier. The composition may be prepared as a powder or liquid nutritional composition for formulas prepared for infant, pediatric and adult populations in need of an elemental diet. The invention provides a commercially acceptable product in terms of desired stability and physical characteristics and is particularly useful for hypoallergenic infant formula preparations.

Elemental nutritional products

An emulsifying system for elemental diet compositions is provided that comprises a protein source that may be a extensively hydrolyzed protein, free amino acids, short-chain peptides, or a mixture thereof; a lipid source; a carbohydrate source; and an emulsifying system comprising an ocentyl succinic anhydride modified starch and an acetylated monoglyceride emulsifier. The composition may be prepared as a powder or liquid nutritional composition for formulas prepared for infant, pediatric and adult populations in need of an elemental diet. The invention provides a commercially acceptable product in terms of desired stability and physical characteristics and is particularly useful for hypoallergenic infant formula preparations.

The present invention concerns nutritionally complete food compositions which contain partially hydrolyzed pectin. The partially hydrolyzed pectin has a peak molecular weight less than unmodified pectin and greater than 3,300.

Partially hydrolyzed pectin in nutritional compositions

The present invention is directed to nutritional compositions at an acidic to mid pH containing a vitamin D ester, an amino acid source, a carbohydrate source and a certain amount of a lipid source. The compositions have improved vitamin D stability upon storage.

Nutritional compositions containing vitamin D esters

An improved oral rehydration solution comprising a mixture of rice dextrin and required electrolytes is provided. The functionality of the rice dextrin in oral rehydration solutions is superior to glucose in infants with chronic diarrhea resulting in lower stool output and enhanced water retention. Rice dextrin also has a polymer profile which provides more readily available glucose than corn dextrin or rice fluor. There is also provided a process for clarifying solutions of rice dextrin which involves a first filtration at 35.degree. C. and 50.degree. C. and a second filtration at temperatures above 80.degree. C. using filter aid and activated carbon.

Rice dextrin oral rehydration solution
