Abstract:
Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMO’s) Is The 3rd Most Abundant Content Of Breast Milk. HMO’s has diverse impact. On growth and development of infants and toddlers. It’s a complex carbohydrate, partly digested inside our colon. Undigested. Fermented residual of HMO’s play a crucial in epigenetic and immune-modulation of gut and cerebral health. Proper functioning of gut-brain axis dependent on HMO’s. butyrate the end product of HMOs inside gut, influences the expression. Of our cellular genes e.g. Epigenetic modulation. Keeps bad cellular genes unexpressed. HMO’s also preserve gut mucosal barrier. Prevents entry of inflammatory toxins into systemic circulation, helps in immune modulation. HMO’s by keeping the gut environment. Healthy, regulate proper functioning of gut- brain axis. Controls neuro-inflammation leading to smooth cerebral activities, proper cognitive and intellectual performance. In conclusion, supplementation of infant formula with HMO’s will be an innovation for future infant nutrition.
