The new solutions are a combination of human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) from dsm-firmenich and probiotics from Lallemand Health Solutions to provide potential synergistic benefits that support infant health and development. These solutions aim to support a microbiome establishment closer to that of breastfed infants and the development of the immune system, the gut microbiome and optimal developmental trajectories.

With promising research showing that specific HMOs can selectively promote the growth of specific probiotic strains and enhance production of metabolites of interest in the range of gut health, natural defenses, cognition, growth and development. These new synbiotic solutions harness this synergistic combination to help bring the composition and functionality of infant formula closer to that of breast milkthe gold standard for infant nutrition.
