HMOs in breastmilk Breast milk is best for babies and provides ideal nutrition. The HMOs, 2’ -Fucosyllactose (2’-FL) and Lacto-N-neotetraose (LNnT) are 2 of the most abundant HMOs found in breast milk.

HMOs in breast milk support the immune system in 4 main ways:

• Promote growth of beneficial gut bacteria.
• Help eliminate pathogens from the gut.
• Strengthen the gut barrier.
• Educate the immune system.

HMOs in new Alfamino recipe:

The HMOs in the new Alfamino recipe are structurally identical to the HMOs 2’FL and LNnT found in breast milk. Research shows that inclusion of these HMOs in infant formula products supports safe growth in formula-fed babies and that they are well tolerated.
Furthermore, additional studies show growing evidence that infants, who consumed infant formula products containing the HMOs 2’FL and LNnT, including those with and without cow’s milk protein allergy, have:

• Selective growth of beneficial gut microbiota.
• A reduction in infection.
• A reduction in infants requiring antibiotic and antipyretic medication over 12 months.

The addition of 2’-Fucosyllactose and Lacto-N-neotetraose in the new Alfamino recipe will be shown on the back of pack only, featuring in both the ingredient list and the nutrition information panel (NIP).
