摘要:
The present invention relates to infant formulas and follow-on formulas containing optimised amino acid profiles comprising 1. 3.2-5.0 g threonine per 100 g protein; 2. 0.7-1.1 g tryptophan per 100 g protein; 3. a ratio of tryptophan to the sum of all neutral amino acids isoleucine, leucine, valine, phenylalanine, tyrosine, and methionine of from 0.030 to 0.025; and 4. 5.0-7.8 g isoleucine per 100 g protein, 6.6-10.3 g leucine per 100 g protein, 6.2-9.7 g lysine per 100 g protein, 1.8-2.8 g methionine per 100 g protein, and/or 5.2-8.1 g valine per 100 g protein. The formulas may contain intact proteins, hydrolysed proteins, protein fractions, free amino acids and/or a combination thereof selected based on their ability to provide the formula with the optimised amino acid profile. The amino acid profile allows for provision of the optimal amounts of amino acids required for growth while reducing total protein intake. Thus the present invention also relates to the administration of these formulas to infants in order to achieve balanced growth and/or development, and may also assist in preventing or reducing the risk of obesity later in life.
