HMOs (Human Milk Oligosaccharides) are a complex family of carbohydrates naturally occurring in human breast milk and represent the third most abundant solid components after lactose and lipid. More than 200 different HMOs are identified in human milk. Each HMOs has lactose as the core building block.
Human Milk Oligosaccharides (HMOs) are a collection of carbohydrate structures and the third most abundant solid component in human milk after lipids and lactose.1 Clinical research has shown that HMOs may help to optimize microbiota development in infants by nourishing beneficial bacteria, such as bifidobacteria - one of the most abundant microbial genera present in the intestine of a full-term, breast-fed, healthy newborn.2 A healthy gut microbiota could in turn help to protect against harmful microbes and support healthy immune system development.3 HMOs are an important component of human milk, which is the gold standard for infant nutrition.4 HMOs can also be synthetically incorporated into formula milk as a nutritional and functional ingredient.
