FERMENTED NUTRITION HIGH IN LACTOSE WITH INCREASED IRON BIOAVAILABILITY Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC A23C9/12 C12N1/20 A23L33/135 A23L33/16 A23L33/21 A61K31/19 A61K31/7016 A61K33/26 A61P7/06 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: proposed is the use of dairy product, fermented by bacteria producing lactic acid, and comprising lactic acid and/or lactate, to obtain a nutritional composition for preventing anemia and/or the iron deficiency, for increasing iron absorption, increasing iron bioaccessibility and/or increasing iron bioavailability in a human subject, as well as for improving cognitive development, improving motor development and/or improving socio-emotional development in a human subject with an age of 0 to 36 months, suffering from iron deficiency or anemia for preventing cognitive disorders, motor disorders and/or socio-emotional disorders in a human subject with an age of 0 to 36 months, suffering from iron deficiency or anemia. Wherein the nutritional composition further comprises i) at least 6 g lactose per 100 ml nutritional composition or at least 40 wt. % lactose based on dry weight of the nutritional composition, and ii) iron. Wherein the nutritional composition comprises protein in an amount of 1.25 to 4 g per 100 kcal, lipid in an amount of 3 to 7 g per 100 kcal of the composition and the digestible carbohydrate comprising said lactose provided in an amount of 5 to 20 g per 100 kcal of the composition. Composition also comprises iron in a concentration of 0.4 to 1.4 mg per 100 ml of the nutritional composition or 0.03 to 0.065 mg per g based on dry weight of the nutritional composition. At least 90 wt. % of the sum of lactic acid and lactate is in the form of L-isomer in the composition. Nutritive composition is also proposed.

EFFECT: group of inventions provides increased iron bioavailability.
