    Patent number: 6156368
    Abstract: A lactose-containing food compositions for infants for improving the stool color of infants closer to that of breast-fed infants, which contains the lactose-containing foods for infants of which the only protein source is substantially cow's milk protein and/or a processed product of cow's milk protein modified to be administered to infants, and raffinose added into the foods for infants at a ratio of at least 0.05% (by weight) in a ready-to-use state.
