  • AGE-TAILORED NUTRITION SYSTEM FOR INFANTS
    Publication number: 20140037787
    Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a protein source comprising whey and casein proteins for providing an age-tailored nutrition system to an infant which system comprises two infant formulas each appropriate to an infant of a different age and each comprising the protein source wherein the whey casein ratio of each formula is chosen in the range from 100:0 to 40:60 and decreases according to the age of the infant and the protein content of each formula is chosen in the range from 1.5 to 3.0 g protein/100 kcal and decreases according to the age of the infant.

  • NUTRITIONAL PRODUCTS HAVING IMPROVED QUALITY AND METHODS AND SYSTEMS REGARDING SAME
    Publication number: 20120171339
    Abstract: Nutritional formulas and methods for producing same are provided. In an embodiment, the present invention provides a nutritional composition produced in a process requiring a heating step, the composition comprising a reduced amount of undesirable reaction products formed from chemical reactions between proteins and carbohydrates during exposure to heat. For example, the composition can have a reduced amount of AGEs compared to similar products made by conventional heat treatment processes.
