FIELD: food industry.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to a nutritional composition containing fucosyltransferase 2 (Fut2)-dependent oligosaccharides and lacto-N-neotetraose (LNnT). Fucosyltransferase 2 (Fut2)-dependent oligosaccharides are 2'-fucosyllactose (2'FL). Infants were born from mothers with low activity Fut2, where said low activity Fut2 is characterized by concentration of 2'-fucosyllactose in breast milk of these mothers less than 0.2 g/l.
EFFECT: application of nutritional composition containing fucosyltransferase 2 (Fut2)-dependent oligosaccharides and lacto-N-neotetraose (LNnT), in order to activate head growth rate, cerebral growth and psychomotor development in infants aged 0 to 1 month.
