Milk Fat Globule Membranes: Significance for Adaptation of the Fat Components of Formulas
https://doi.org/10.31550/1727-2378-2023-22-7-13-17
Abstract
Aim. Based on literature data, to analyze the clinical significance of the milk fat globule membrane in the nutrition of newborns and young children.
Key points. Breast milk has been and remains the “gold standard” for feeding a child of the first year. The composition of modern formulas is based on the new information on the breast milk components, which have the most important programming impact on the growing child body. Currently, scientists pay special attention to the optimisation of the fat component of formulas with the introduction of milk fat globule membranes — a unique structure surrounding glycerine nucleus and comprising complex lipids in the form of phospholipids, gangliosides and cholesterol.
Conclusion. The scientific studies demonstrated the critical role of “minor” lipids in the process of postnatal formation of the central nervous system and visual analyzer, the formation of the immune system and the regulation of metabolic processes. It is now reliably known that formulas with milk fat globule membranes are well-tolerated and have favourable effect on the prevention of infectious diseases and lipid exchange status.
