Nutritional composition for use in reducing metabolic stress in infants, decreasing gut permeability and approximating growth rate of breast-fed infants

摘要

The present invention relates to a nutritional composition comprising an oligosaccharide mixture, said oligosaccharide mixture comprising at least one N- acetylated oligosaccharide, one galacto-oligosaccharide and one sialylated oligosaccharide for use in reducing the metabolic stress in an infant in the first twelve months of life and/or decreasing gut permeability in an infant in the first twelve months of life and/or promoting a rate of growth in an infant fed with said nutritional composition in the first twelve months of life which approximates to the rate of growth of a breast-fed infant at the same age.
