Greetings All,
Earlier studies in animal milks have shown a relationship between the oligosaccharide 2'FL and greater neurodevelopment. This first study in a human population has correlated infant intake of 2'FL with enhanced cognitive development, with a particular benefit to infants' early exposure to human milk.
This link to the ScienceDaily press release includes a discussion by the first author of the study. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2020/02/200212150143.htm
Study title: Human milk oligosaccharide 2’-fucosyllactose links feedings at 1 month to cognitive development at 24 months in infants of normal and overweight mothers.
