Abstract
The present invention is directed to a method for increasing the bone mineralization of a human, and more preferably an infant or toddler. The method comprises administering to said human a source of calcium and a fat blend that is low in palmitic acid. The enhanced mineralization results in the production of a higher peak bone mass and correspondingly lowers the incidence of osteoporosis.
