The methods include administration of a nutritional formulation including at least one LCPUFA to a woman during pregnancy and optionally during lactation and breastfeeding of an infant. | 09-27-2012 |
20120245123 | METHODS FOR IMPROVING BONE HEALTH IN INFANTS USING PREBIOTICS - Disclosed are methods for improving bone health, strength and formation in an infant who may be susceptible to developing bone health issues from conception through adolescence. The methods include administration of a nutritional formulation including a prebiotic to a woman during pregnancy and optionally during lactation and breastfeeding of an infant. | 09-27-2012 |
20140249223 | METHODS FOR IMPROVING BRAIN DEVELOPMENT AND COGNITIVE FUNCTION USING BETA-HYDROXY-BETA METHYLBUTYRATE - Disclosed are methods for enhancing neural function in an individual, such as an older adult. The methods include administering nutritional compositions comprising HMB to the individual. The nutritional compositions provide benefits for individuals that have or may be at risk of having cognitive decline, cognitive impairment, and neural dysfunction, typically resulting from cognitive diseases associated with neurodegenerative diseases. | 09-04-2014 |
20140377404 | USE OF SPECIFIC CARBOHYDRATE SYSTEMS DURING PREGNANCY FOR EFFECTING THE OFFSPRING - The present disclosure is directed to a combination of carbohydrates (a slow rate of digestion simple carbohydrate, a complex carbohydrate, a nonabsorbent carbohydrate, and an indigestible oligosaccharide) for use in a method of treating a pregnant woman wherein the method results in an improvement in the health of the offspring of the pregnant woman. The disclosure is also directed to use of the combination of carbohydrates for the manufacture of a medicament for use in the treatment of a pregnant woman wherein the treatment results in an improvement in the health of the offspring of the pregnant woman. The improvement can be a reduction of at least one long tem adverse health effect and/or an improvement in lean body mass development and formation of the offspring. The combination of carbohydrates may also be administered to the woman during lactation to further the improvement in the health of the offspring. | 12-25-2014 |
20150231159 | METHODS FOR INCREASING BRAIN FUNCTIONALITY USING 2-FUCOSYL-LACTOSE - Disclosed are methods for enhancing learning and/or memory, enhancing memory acquisition, memory retention and recall by inducing a higher long-term potentiation in hippocampal neuronal synapsis in individuals. The methods include administration of 2-fucosyl-lactose to an individual. | 08-20-2015 |
20150238508 | METHODS FOR MODULATING CORTICOSTERONE LEVELS IN PSYCHOLOGICALLY STRESSED INDIVIDUALS - Disclosed are methods of modulating and/or decreasing serum corticosterone levels in an individual affected by stress. Further disclosed are methods of modulating the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal response in an individual. The methods include administration of 2-fucosyl-lactose to an individual. | 08-27-2015 |
20160029679 | USE OF SPECIFIC CARBOHYDRATE SYSTEMS DURING PREGNANCY FOR PREVENTING FAT ACCUMULATION IN PREGNANT WOMEN - Disclosed herein are methods related to the administration of specific carbohydrate systems to a pregnant woman for preventing or limiting fat accumulation. The carbohydrate system may include a slow rate of digestion simple carbohydrate, a complex carbohydrate, a non-absorbent carbohydrate, and/or an indigestible carbohydrate. The compositions may be administered before, during, or after gestation. | 02-04-2016 |
20160030466 | USE OF SPECIFIC CARBOHYDRATE SYSTEMS DURING PREGNANCY FOR IMPROVING BONE DEVELOPMENT AND FORMATION AND/OR FOR IMPROVING COGNITIVE AND CNS DEVELOPMENT IN OFFSPRING - The present disclosure is directed to the administration of specific carbohydrate systems to a pregnant and/or lactating woman for improving one or more characteristics in offspring, for example cognition and/or bone health. The carbohydrate system may include a slow rate of digestion simple carbohydrate, a complex carbohydrate, and a non-absorbent carbohydrate and/or an indigestible carbohydrate. | 02-04-2016 |
