Definitions

  • the present invention relates to the field of infant nutrition and the effect of the lipid component of the diet on the body composition later in life.
  • Breast-feeding is the preferred method of feeding infants.
  • Breast fed infants have a decreased chance of becoming obese later in life, compared to formula fed infants, but little is known about the effects of ingredients in the infant formulae on obesity later in life.
  • Obesity is a major health problem in the Western world. It is a medical condition in which excess fat has accumulated to the extent that it may have an adverse effect on health, leading to reduced life expectancy and it is associated with many diseases, particularly heart disease and type 2 diabetes. Obesity is a leading preventable cause of death worldwide, with increasing prevalence in adults and children, and authorities view it as one of the most serious public health problems of the 21 st century.
  • the present invention relates to infant nutrition with a lipid component beneficially effecting the body composition later in life.
  • WO 2007/073194 relates to infant formulae comprising phospholipids, sphingolipids, and cholesterol for the prevention of obesity.
  • WO 2007/073193 relates to infant formulae with specific linoleic acid to alpha-linolenic acid ratio's, low linoleic acid content and comprising phospholipids, sphingolipids, cholesterol and/or choline plus uridine for the prevention of obesity later in life.
  • Infant milk formulae comprise predominantly vegetable oils as lipid source and in vegetable oils the palmitic acid is mainly in the sn-1 and sn-3 position.
  • the pancreatic lipases hydrolyse the palmitic acid and the liberated free palmitic acid easily forms calcium- fatty acid complexes in the intestine, thereby reducing the bioavailability of calcium and palmitic acid and increasing stool hardness.
  • Synthetic or structured lipids are known comprising more palmitic acid residues in the sn-2 position and their presence in infant formulae increases palmitic acid absorption, calcium absorption and softer stools. Also an increase in bone mass is reported.
  • EP 0 698 078 discloses triglyceride compositions as obtainable by 1 ,3-specific enzymic interesterification of a triglyceride mix, comprising over 30 % palmitic acid and/or stearic acid, from which over 35 % is bonded at the 2 position, while the remaining fatty acid residues are mainly unsaturated.
  • EP 1 557 096 Bl relates to an improved infant formula resulting in reduced constipation, abdominal discomfort and gastrointestinal problems, which comprises a protein component having a phosphorus content of less than 0.75 g P/100 g protein, and a lipid component that can easily be digested by an infant, comprising fatty acid triglycerides, in which palmitic acid residues make up more than 10 % (w/w) of all fatty acid residues present in the triglycerides, at least 30 % of the palmitic acid residues in the triglycerides being in the Sn2 position.
  • a diet of the present invention that comprised triglycerides with increased palmitic acid residues esterified on the sn-2 position, had been administered, it was observed that later in life the body composition was changed, resulting in less fat mass accumulation, less fat mass relative to total body weight, increased lean body mass, increased body weight and increased muscle tissue compared to the body composition upon administering early in life a control diet with conventional triglycerides, even when the diet consumed later in life was the same in both groups.
  • Fat mass in young children has important roles in energy storage, insulation, storage of fat soluble vitamins and hormonal development, such as the development of leptin and insulin sensitivity and it is therefore not desired to decrease fat mass in infants and young children. So due to the lipids of the present invention differences in patterns of growth in infancy arised and programmed the body which results in a healthier growth later in life, i.e. adulthood.
  • the present invention relates to infant formulae or growing up milks for toddlers comprising triglycerides with an increased portion of the palmitic acid residues esterified on the sn-2 position of the glycerol backbone.

  • the direct of the diet was different in that the mice receiving the diet with triglycerides of the present invention had a higher body weight, fat mass and lean body mass.
  • composition of the present invention is advantageously used in preterm infants or small for gestational age (SGA) infants, in particular for feeding a preterm infant or an infant small for gestational age.
  • a preterm or premature infant relates to an infant born before the standard period of pregnancy is completed before or on 37 weeks pregnancy of the mother, i.e. before or on 37 weeks from the beginning of the last menstrual period of the mother.
  • SGA babies are those whose birth weight lies below the 10th percentile for that gestational age.
  • Premature and/or SGA infants include low birth weight infants (LBW infants), very low birth weight infants (VLBW infants), and extremely low birth weight infants (ELBW infants).
  • LBW infants are defined as infants with a weight less than 2500 g.
  • VLBW infants as infants with a weight which is less than 1500 g
  • ELBW infants as infants with a weight less than 1000 g.
  • mice which had previously consumed the food composition of the present invention before turning to the Western style diet for 56 days, had a significantly lower fat mass accumulated and lower percentage fat mass based on body weight and increase muscle tissue than mice which had received a control composition during infancy.
  • the total body weight and lean body mass was increased in the mice fed the experimental diet in early life.
  • indefinite article “a” or “an” does not exclude the possibility that more than one of the element is present, unless the context clearly requires that there be one and only one of the elements.
  • the indefinite article “a” or “an” thus usually means “at least one”.
  • Example 1 Effects of structured lipids on growth and body composition later in life
  • C57/BL6 dams and their offspring were exposed to the diet from day 2 on.
  • the offspring started eating the diet themselves from day 15 onward. They were completely fed on the diet from day 21 on.
  • the experimental weaning diets were continued until day 42. From day 42 to day 98 all pups were fed the same diet based on AIN-93G diet with an adjusted lipid fraction (containing 10 wt.% lipid of which 50 wt.% lard and 1 % cholesterol, based on total lipid), which is representative for a Western style diet.
  • the experimental diets that were used for weaning were:
  • BetapolTM 45 Lipid Nutrition, The Netherlands
  • the amount of palmitic acid in BetapolTM 45 was about 23 wt.% based on total fatty acid residues.
  • the triglyceride content in both diets was over 98 wt.% based on total lipids.
  • the fatty acid composition of the diets is given in Table 1 and was very similar. At day 42, all mice switched to a "Western style diet" comprising 10 wt.% lipid until day 98.
  • the fatty acid composition of the Western style diet is also shown in Table 1. Table 1 : Fatty acid composition of the diets
  • mice were weighed twice a week. The food intake was determined once a week during the entire experiment.
  • body composition i.e., BMC, BMD, fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM)
  • DEXA scans Dual Energy X-ray Absorbiometry
  • body composition i.e., BMC, BMD, fat mass (FM) and fat-free mass (FFM)
  • DEXA scans Dual Energy X-ray Absorbiometry
  • Body weight 42 23.8 (0.55) 24.7 (0.63)
  • Bone mineral content 42 0.410 (0.013) 0.411 (0.010)
  • Bone mineral density 42 0.045 (0.001) 0.046 (0.001)
  • An infant formula for infants of 0 to 6 months comprising per 100 ml 66 kcal, 1.3 g protein (cow's milk protein, whey protein and casein in a weight ratio of 6:4), 7.3 g digestible carbohydrates (mainly lactose), 3.5 g lipid, 0.8 g non-digestible oligosaccharides (galacto- oligosaccharides and polyfructose), minerals, trace elements, vitamins, carnitine, choline, myoinositol, and taurine as known in the art.
  • the lipid composition is the same as in diet 2 of example 1.
  • the infant formula is claimed to prevent fat mass accumulation later in life.
