Compositions and methods are disclosed containing lingual lipase or another pregastric esterase as a nutritional composition for use in neonatal mammals or mammals with fat maldigestion. The compositions may be used as a stand-alone feed, or an additive to milk, milk or replacers. The composition may also include micronutrients, macronutrients, and bioactive dietary components for neonate mammals or mammals of any age with fat maldigestion Mammals include ruminants, porcines, horses, camelids, dogs, cats, or humans. Lingual lipase or pregastric esterase as a nutritional supplement may substantially improve the digestion of fats in mammals unable to effectively digest fats. The lingual lipase or esterase is preferably from an animal source. The composition may contain butterfat, micellar casein, whey, non-denatured proteins, and a source of lactose. Methods of treating fat maldigestion with the compositions are also disclosed.

The present disclosure relates to nutritional composition in powder form capable of being used as an adjunct to a ketogenic diet program. The disclosed ketogenic nutritional composition can produce elevated and sustained levels of ketone bodies in blood and can synergistically induce nutritional ketosis in a subject. The ketogenic nutritional composition disclosed herein can exhibit improved physical stability, solubility, homogeneity and aqueous dispersibility as compared to existing ketogenic diet supplements, and is substantially free of carbohydrates. Further the disclosed ketogenic nutritional composition can contribute to reduction in body fat mass in individuals who are trying to lose weight, and can provide long-lasting energy and improved athletic performance to individuals during strenuous exercise. In an aspect, the present disclosure provides a ketogenic nutritional composition in powder form for promoting nutritional ketosis in a subject in need thereof, wherein the composition can include a fat, protein, vitamin, and phospholipids.
