Abstract:
Disclosed are methods for enhancing learning and/or memory, enhancing memory acquisition, memory retention and recall by inducing a higher long-term potentiation in hippocampal neuronal synapsis in individuals. The methods include administration of 2-fucosyl-lactose to an individual.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein are methods related to the administration of specific carbohydrate systems to a pregnant woman for preventing or limiting fat accumulation. The carbohydrate system may include a slow rate of digestion simple carbohydrate, a complex carbohydrate, a non-absorbent carbohydrate, and/or an indigestible carbohydrate. The compositions may be administered before, during, or after gestation.
Abstract:
A method of forming a heat-treated liquid nutritional composition having a neutral pH and comprising a water-insoluble plant flavonoid comprises providing an aqueous liquid nutritional composition having a pH of from about 6 to about 7.5 and comprising protein, fat, carbohydrate, and water-insoluble plant flavonoid, homogenizing the liquid nutritional composition at a pressure of at least about 2000 psi, and heat treating the liquid nutritional composition. A heat-treated liquid nutritional composition having a pH of from about 6 to about 7.5 comprises a water-insoluble plant flavonoid, protein, fat and carbohydrate. At least about 75 wt % of the water-insoluble plant flavonoid remains suspended throughout the liquid nutritional composition after two months of storage at room temperature.
Abstract:
Disclosed are methods of modulating and/or decreasing serum corticosterone levels in an individual affected by stress. Further disclosed are methods of modulating the hypothalamic pituitary adrenal response in an individual. The methods include administration of 2-fucosyl-lactose to an individual.

Abstract:
Compositions including a combination of a source of choline, a source of magnesium, and a source of L-tryptophan are provided for improving cognitive performance in a subject. The compositions may improve a cognitive impairment and/or brain dysfunction associated with age-related cognitive decline or cognitive decline resulting from a neurodegenerative disease. The compositions may also be effective in improving memory acquisition, memory retention, and recall.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is directed to the administration of specific carbohydrate systems to a pregnant and/or lactating woman for improving one or more characteristics in offspring, for example cognition and/or bone health. The carbohydrate system may include a slow rate of digestion simple carbohydrate, a complex carbohydrate, and a non-absorbent carbohydrate and/or an indigestible carbohydrate.
