Dale Farm, the Northern Ireland-based dairy cooperative, has become an ingredients supplier for infant formula products for the first time as part of a major supply partnership with dairy processor Arla Foods.
Demand for infant formula containing SN-2 palmitate – an ingredient that mimics the fatty acid profile in human milk – has soared over the past decade and will continue to grow, Advanced Lipids has claimed.
Feeding babies with infant formula enriched with Arla Foods Ingredients’ Lacprodan OPN-10 supports their immune development, according to the results of a new trial.
A new study has revealed that InFat - a vegetable-based fat for infant formula with a similar structure to breast milk - provides beneficial effects for the health and well-being of formula-fed infants.
