Disclosed embodiments provide nutritional compositions and methods of enhancing maturation of an infant's brain. The methods include the step of administering to the infant a nutritional composition comprising a protein with a degree of hydrolysis of 10% to 75% in combination with at least one of a monoglyceride, a free fatty acid, a salt of a free fatty acid, a phospholipid, and cholesterol.

Disclosed are compositions containing a lactoferrin hydrolysate, glycerophosphorylinositol or salts thereof and/or verbascoside which are useful for the prevention and/or treatment of dermatological, otological and stomatological inflammations and infections, in particular in the veterinary sphere.

The present invention relates to the cosmetic or pharmaceutical use for a composition comprising a salicylic or nicotinic acid derivative inhibiting chemokines, for preventing or treating chronic internal and/or external inflammatory conditions.

The present invention a polyphenol complexes with amino acids, peptides, proteins, glycosaminoglycans, polysaccharides, mucopolysaccharide, disaccharides, monosaccharides, amino sugars, glycol-proteins, DNA/RNA oligonucleotides, mRNA, siRNA, antibodiesor other micro- or macro biomolecules.

Nutritional compositions are provided herein for optimizing fats, carbohydrates, and protein caloric ratios as they relate to balanced nutrition, general health, and muscle performance during exercise and to muscle cell repair and recovery following the cessation of exercise.

Administration of certain chromium complexes in combination with a starch provide unexpected benefits regarding increasing amino acid absorption, protein synthesis, exercise tolerance, lean muscle mass, skeletal muscle hypertrophy, muscle power, muscle endurance, muscle strength, FSR, and decreasing delayed onset muscle soreness, muscle protein breakdown, and fat mass.

Provided herein is a particle made of a protein or a peptide covalently bound to a prebiotic carbohydrate, thereby forming a conjugate. The particle may be used for selectively promoting probiotic bacteria growth in the intestine, particularly the colon and may be used to selectively deliver additional probiotic growth factors, or other bioactives and drugs to probiotic bacteria in the intestine, particularly to the colon. Furthermore, provided herein are methods for preparing the particle, and for delivering a substance bound to, or entrapped within the particle, into the gastrointestinal tract of a subject in need thereof.

The present application relates to nutritional compositions comprising lactic acid-producing bacteria.
