Abstract

Our study showed that in formula-fed babies, the use of mixture X (containing 2′-FL (2′-fucosyllactose) – a type of milk oligosaccharide, as well as carefully studied Bifidobacterium lactis, DHA, ARA, and nucleotides) as the main product for feeding could ensure children’s body with all the necessary nutrients. Furthermore, it can minimize the progression of clinical signs of atopic dermatitis and reduce the use of drugs. In addition, there was an improvement in height and weight parameters, proportional development of the child (p<0.05), an increase in the number of erythrocytes (erythrocytes), hemoglobin (Hb), mean cell volume (MCV) (p<0.05), a decrease in the number of leukocytes (WBC) (p<0.05), and leveling of skin signs of atopic dermatitis (AD) (according to SCORAD a decrease from 32.8±5.5 to 16.1±2.2, p<0.05). Based on these results, it is possible to recommend using mixture (X) with a preventive and rational purpose as a product of artificial feeding of children with a hereditary predisposition to allergies.
