Abstract: The present invention relates to a nutritional composition comprising at least one human milk oligosaccharide comprising 3? sialyllactose (3-SL), 6? sialyllactose (6-SL), 3-fucosyllactose and any combination thereof for improving language development in a subject, preferably born from a A-tetrasaccharide positive mother and/or the subject fed with a mother's milk rich in A-tetrasaccharide

Abstract: The present invention relates to a nutritional composition for improving the temperament of young children. The nutritional composition for an infant or toddler comprises a2-?-casein, wherein the a2-13-casein represents more than 50%, preferably, more than 70%, more preferably, more than 90%, even more preferably, 95%, or most preferably 100% of total ?-caseins. The composition has been clinically shown to improve the temperament in toddlers and young children.

Abstract: The invention relates to a nutrition composition with oligofructose and optionally high sn-2 palmitate triglycerides for inducing gut microbiota patterns in the guts of infants or young children that are similar in composition and diversity to the microbiota of breast fed infants. The infants can be 0-12 months or 0 to 36 months of age and the composition can be an infant formula. The composition promotes a healthy intestinal microbiota and can have long term effects.

Abstract: The invention relates to a nutrition composition with oligofructose and optionally high sn-2 palmitate for down regulating, decreasing or inhibiting the growth of pathogenic bacterial populations in the guts of infants or young children. The infants can be 0-12 months of age and the composition can be an infant formula. Higher dosage of oligofructose intensifies the effect. The composition promotes a healthy intestinal microbiota.

Abstract: An infant formula having a relatively high content of triglycerides having palmitic acid in the sn-2 position. The formula may include oligofructose. The formula may also include at least one omega 6 fatty acid and at least one omega 3 fatty acid. The formula may also have a relatively low protein content and an alpha-lactalbumin content similar to human milk The invention also includes a method for improving the stool consistency, increasing bifidobacteria in the colon, reducing potentially pathogenic bacteria in the colon and reducing calcium soaps in the stool of a formula-fed infant.
