Cereal-based semi-liquid and/or semi-solid compositions suitable for supporting the transition period wherein the infant changes from a diet consisting of breast milk or liquid infant formula to solid adult foods, comprising uronic acid carbohydrates with a degree of polymerization (DP) between 10 and 300 and also uses thereof are disclosed.

Cereal-based infant nutrition with fibre

A composition comprising, a non-digestible saccharide A and a non-digestible saccharide B, optionally combined withand the use of said composition for the treatment and/or prevention of gastro-intestinal disorder, immune disorder and/or endocrine disorder.

Nutritional composition with probiotics

A food or supplement for pregnant women comprising water soluble, non-digestible saccharides is described. The composition is used to improve the flora and/or immune system of the pregnant women, to improve the immune system of the infant and to improve the intestinal flora of the infant after birth.

Use of non-digestible saccharides for giving an infant the best start after birth

The invention relates to the use of specifically designed lipid component with optimal fatty acid profile, an enhanced portion of the palmitic acid residues in the sn-2 position and present as lipid globules with a phospholipid coating for an early in life diet for improving the development of a healthy body composition, in particular prevention of obesity, later in life.

Metabolic imprinting effects of specifically designed lipid component

The invention pertains to the use of a composition in reducing the number of infections episodes and the occurrence of infections in young children, said composition comprising: (a) long chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, wherein the amount of arachidonic acid is less than 0.06 gram per 100 gram fatty acid; and comprising, per 100 g fatty acids: (i) 0.3-0.6 gram docosahexaenoic acid; (ii) 0.2-0.4 gram eicosapentaenoic acid; and (b) between 1.5 and 2.5 gram indigestible oligosaccharides per 100 kcal, comprising: (i) 1.4-2 gram short-chain galactooligosaccharides; and (ii) 0.1-0.5 gram long-chain fructopolysaccharides.

Method for reducing the occurrence of infection in young children

The invention relates to a kit of parts comprising 2 to 100 containers each containing an infant formula, wherein each infant formula is in a form suitable for administration to an infant and/or toddler or in a form suitable for administration to an infant and/or toddler after admixing with an aqueous liquid, wherein the kit of part comprises at least two different infant formulas which differ from each other in taste and/or flavor by having a different protein fraction or by being a fermented infant formula, wherein each of the different protein fractions is selected from the group consisting of intact milk proteins including cow milk proteins, intact plant proteins including soy protein, hydrolysed proteins, free amino acids, or mixtures of two or more thereof.

Early stimulation of taste and/or flavour acceptance

The invention relates to the use of triglycerides which an enhanced portion of the palmitic acid residues in the sn-2 position for an early in life diet for improving the development of a healthy body composition, in particular prevention of obesity, later in life.

Metabolic imprinting effects of structured lipids

The invention relates to a kit of parts comprising 2 to 100 containers each containing an infant formula, wherein each infant formula is in a form suitable for administration to an infant and/or toddler or in a form suitable for administration to an infant and/or toddler after admixing with an aqueous liquid, wherein the kit of part comprises at least two different infant formulas which differ from each other in taste and/or flavor by having a different protein fraction or by being a fermented infant formula, wherein each of the different protein fractions is selected from the group consisting of intact milk proteins including cow milk proteins, intact plant proteins including soy protein, hydrolysed proteins, free amino acids, or mixtures of two or more thereof. The invention further relates to the use of such kit of parts for stimulating the acceptance and/or liking of a broad range of fruits, vegetables and/or whole grain cereal products by infants and/or toddlers or later in life. In another aspect, the invention relates to such kit of parts for increasing familiarization with multiple tastes and/or flavors and/or for reducing the risk of food refusal and/or other eating difficulties. In a further aspect the invention relates to such kit of parts for the prevention of obesity, diabetes, atherosclerosis, hypertension, cardiovascular diseases, high blood pressure and cancer at an age of above 36 months.

The invention relates to a liquid nutrition comprising short chain fatty acyl chains and a non-digestible, fermentable saccharide. The composition is particular suitable for use as an infant nutrition. The composition is also suitable for treatment and/or prevention of gut barrier related disorders.

Nutrition with lipids and non-digestible saccharides

The invention relates to a liquid nutrition comprising short chain fatty acyl chains, polyunsaturated fatty acyl chains, vegetable oil and a non-digestible, fermentable saccharide. The composition is particular suitable for use as an infant nutrition. The composition is also suitable for treatment and/or prevention of gut barrier related disorders.
