A mixture (M) comprising or, alternatively consisting of: (i) water-soluble oligosaccharide, or a water-soluble complex carbohydrate, or mixtures thereof; (II) a casein; (ill) n3 and/or n6 fatty acids; (iv) an extract of Vaccinium macrocarpon. The present invention further relates to a pharmaceutical composition, or a food for special medical purpose (FSMP), or a medical device formulation or composition, or a dietary supplement comprising the aforementioned mixture (M), for use as medicament, or for use in the treatment of a chronic inflammatory bowel disease, in particular of states of malnutrition in subjects suffering from said chronic inflammatory bowel disease.

The present invention relates to a nutritional composition, for infants and young children (about 12 to 36 months) in which the sum of the triacylglycerols (TAG) sn-1(3) palmitic acid (PA), myristic acid (MA) and stearic acid (SA) constitutes less than 13.0% of the TAG. The composition promotes absorption of fatty acids and calcium in the gut, improves gut comfort, decreases abdominal pain associated with hard stool formation, promotes regular bowel movements and reduces the incidence and severity of constipation in infants and young children (up to the age of about three years old). The composition also promotes bone mineralization, increasing bone strength and bone mineral density.

The present invention concerns a lactic composition useful for the prevention or treatment of diarrhea such as antibiotic associated diarrhea or “tourista.” The composition according to the invention contains at least a bacterial strain selected from the group consisting of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Lactobacillus acidophilus I-1492, Lactobacillus casei and a mixture of thereof.

The invention is a nutritional composition in unit dosage form for oral administration to an animal or human, which includes at least one ingredient from each of six biological Kingdoms selected from the group consisting of animals, plants, fungi, bacteria, protist and archaea. Each ingredient is co-admixed with every other said ingredient without further addition of synthetic excipients or fillers, and is typically formulated in dried powder form as a drink mix, food or beverage additive or as the fill for hard or soft capsules or other dosage forms including tablets (the compositions of the invention can generally be tableted without addition of ingredients beyond the nutrients themselves).
