INFANT FOOD FOR IMPROVEMENT OF FATTY ACIDS COMPOSITION IN BRAIN CELL MEMBRANES Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A23D7/01 A23D9/05 A23J7/00 A23L1/29 A23L1/30 A61K31/201 A61K31/683 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to infant food. One proposes a method for modification of fatty acids compound in brain cell membranes which is chosen from the group consisting of: i) brain cell membranes fluidity increase, ii) PUFA content increase in brain cell membranes, iii) LC-PUFA content increase in brain cell membranes, iv) n6/n3 LC-PUFA ratio decrease in brain cell membranes, v) n6/n3 PUFA ratio decrease in brain cell membranes, vi) n3 PUFA ratio increase in brain cell membranes, vii) n3 LC-PUFA ratio increase in brain cell membranes and viii) DHA ratio increase in brain cell membranes with the subject human by way of administration of a nutritional composition containing 10-50 wt % of vegetal lipids per the composition dry weight and lipid globules with a nucleus including the said vegetal lipids. The said lipid globules have 1) modal diameter weighted by volume equal to more than 1.0 mcm, preferably, 1.0 - 10 mcm and/or 2) diameter equal to 2-12 mcm in an amount of at least 45, more preferably, at least 55 vol % of the total lipids volume.

EFFECT: proposed is a method to improve the subject human's cognitive functions when the said subject human has reached an age of over 36 months by way of administration of the above nutritional composition to the subject human at an age of 0-36 months.
