The present disclosure relates to a lipid source for nutritional compositions, comprising an enriched lipid fraction which comprises structured fat globules. The enriched lipid fraction provides fat globules having a desired size and fatty acid composition and may be stabilized by components such as phospholipids, cholesterol, milk-fat globule membrane protein and combinations thereof. Additionally, the disclosure relates to methods of supporting lipid digestion in a pediatric subject by providing a nutritional composition comprising an enriched lipid fraction having structured fat globules that are more accessible to lipases. The chemical composition, size and structure of the fat globules may improve digestion. The disclosed nutritional compositions may provide additive and or/synergistic beneficial health effects.

Disclosed are processes for removing lactose from dried milk products to produce dried protein fortified and/or mineral fortified milk products having a reduced lactose content with minimal use, or even without the use, of membrane ultrafiltration, diafiltration, or additional drying equipment. Additionally, a high lactose-containing stream product is also produced. The dried protein fortified milk products are physically and chemically similar to dried milk protein concentrates and can be used for protein fortifiers in various food applications.

A system for modifying dairy protein functionality can include a milk protein input, a treatment process, and a milk protein output. A controller can be in communication with the treatment process and can be configured to receive one or more input parameters. The controller can generate one or more treatment parameters based on the one or more input parameters. The controller can then initiate the treatment process based on one or more of the treatment parameters. The modified dairy protein functionality can be selected or optimized based on a target functionality of the milk protein output.
