BABY FOOD FOR IMPROVING FATTY ACIDS COMPOSITION IN CEREBRAL CELL MEMBRANES Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC A23D7/01 A23D9/05 A23J7/00 A23L33/115 

FIELD: food industry.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to nutrition, in particular, to baby food. Method for improving cognitive development or behavioural function in a human subject by administering a nutritional composition containing lipids, a portion of which is presented in the form of lipid globules with a core containing plant lipids, and a coating containing phospholipids and/or polar lipids. Above nutritional composition contains 10–50 wt. % of vegetal lipids per dry mass of the composition, 0.5–20 wt. % of phospholipids of total weight of lipids and/or 0.6–25 wt. % of polar lipids of total weight of lipids. Polar lipids are a sum of phospholipids, glycosphingolipids and cholesterol.

EFFECT: invention provides a long-term effect of improving fatty acid composition in cerebral cell membranes, which promotes development of cognitive and behavioural function, including fine motor skills and visual acuity.
