Bringing Infant Formula Closer to Breast Milk with HMOs

Pioneering Abbott research helps bring its baby formula closer than ever to breast milk. When it comes to a new baby no detail gets overlooked – from the room paint, to the perfect crib, to the beautiful blankets and brand new coming-home outfits. Parents of newborns: meticulously preparing for that special day while leaving absolutely nothing to chance. That's especially true of what to feed your baby. We share a similar passion. While mother's milk is always best, for many moms, breastfeeding is not always an option. "Breastfeeding my babies is the best thing nutritionally but that doesn't always work out for me and my busy schedule," said Kaitlin O'Rourke of Columbus, Ohio. ABCs of HMOs 2'-FL HMO, or 2'-fucosyllactose (few-co-syl-lactose) human milk oligosaccharide (ol-i-goh-sak-uh-rahyd); is a prebiotic found naturally in breast milk. About 80 percent of mothers make 2'-FL in their breast milk. Excluding water, HMOs are the third most abundant ingredient in breast milk after fat and carbohydrates. What is an HMO's job? Simply, they help the good bacteria do the good things you want in your baby's gut. 2'-FL HMO also travels through the bloodstream. "We wanted to replicate HMOs so that babies who drink formula can benefit from them," Rachael Buck, Ph.D., associate research fellow and immunology expert at Abbott, said. Similac Pro-Advance and Pro-Sensitive with 2'-FL HMO are the only formulas available with an added HMO. The 2'-FL HMO in Abbott's formulas is bio-structurally identical to the 2’-FL HMO found in mother's milk and it is produced in a similar way to the way some vitamins are made.Learn more about how to live your fullest and healthiest life: https://www.lifetothefullest.abbott/e...
