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.

The present invention concerns a nutritional composition, for example a synthetic nutritional composition, for use in reducing the metabolic stress. This composition is for use in mammals, preferably in humans, more preferably in infants. The nutritional composition comprises one or more medium chain fatty acid (MCFA) derivative or derivatives for use in reducing metabolic stress. Conditions and/or diseases associated to the metabolic disorders and/or imbalances in an infant are selected in the group consisting of neurological, growth and/or gut retarded development or abnormalities, hypoglycemia, hyperglycemia, hyperinsulinemia, hypertriglyceridemia. The infant is born preterm or with low-birthweight (LBW) or who experienced intra-uterine growth retardation (IUGR) or small for gestational age (SGA)).
