Compositions are provided comprising a pro-reparative factor such as a colostrum, a nutritional protease inhibitor to decrease enzymatic digestion of the pro-reparative factors, and optionally a stabilizing agent, to allow the pro-reparative factors to reach the small intestine intact following oral administration. Methods are provided for treating, alleviating, and preventing inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) and other disorders of the gastrointestinal tract.

Disclosed is a method for the manufacture of a spray-dried powder consisting essentially of 3-fucosyllactose, the spray-dried powder, its use for the manufacture of nutritional compositions, and nutritional compositions containing the spray-dried powder.

Provided are food compositions configured to promote neurodevelopment in developing subjects. Food compositions of the present disclosure may make available to a subject those nutrients that are required by or otherwise positively influence developing brain regions, and the neurons thereof, during specific windows of neurodevelopment. Also provided are kits and systems that relate to the subject food compositions as well as methods, such as methods of formulating the described food compositions.

The present invention concerns a food composition for use in preventing nutrients' inadequacies in lactating women with high saturated fatty acid type dietary patter.

There is provided a method of manufacturing a nutritional composition comprising carbohydrate in an amount of at least 250 g l.sup.−1 of composition. The method comprises the steps of: (i) combining a first gelling agent and water, (ii) heating the mixture produced in step (i) to a temperature of between 60° C. and 100° C.; (iii) combining a second gelling agent with the heated mixture of step (ii) with mixing; and (iv) maintaining the mixture produced in step (iii) at a temperature of between 70° C. and 100° C. for between 10 and 120 minutes; with a carbohydrate component being combined with the mixture during one or more of said steps. Also provided is a nutritional composition.

An infant formula for preventing gastro-esophageal reflux is disclosed comprising whey protein and/or casein, a galactomannan thickener, and a fermented milk-derived product.

This invention comprises compositions and methods to detect and treat gastrointestinal diseases.

The present disclosure relates to a novel Lactobacillus plantarum CJLP475 strain having acid-resistance, bile-resistance and an immune-enhancing activity, and a composition including the same.

A method of inhibiting inflammation with milk oligosaccharides or glycoconjugates containing the oligosaccharides.

This invention relates to the use of a nutritional composition comprising sialylated oligosaccharides for enhancing cognitive development and learning skills in mammals. The nutritional composition comprises 3′-Siallylactose (3′-SL) and 6′-Siallylactose (6′-SL) in a weight ratio between 10:1 and 1:10 and is specifically for use in enhancing learning skills and/or enhancing memory function in an individual by increasing the sialic acid (Neu5Ac) concentration in the brain of said individual.
