Infant formula with improved protein content

摘要

The disclosure relates to an infant formula, comprising a) at least one protein component; and b) at least one lipid component that can be easily digested by an infant; and optionally one or two of: c) at least one prebiotic component; d) at least one viscosity improving component; and optionally one or more components of infant formula known per se, characterised in that: the protein component a) has a phosphorous content of less than 0.75 g P/100 g protein. The formula is preferably further characterised in that the at least one lipid component b) comprises at least one fatty acid triglyceride and/or a mixture of fatty acid triglycerides, in which: - palmitic acid residues make up more than 10 % all fatty acid residues present in the triglycerides; and the triglycerides in which the palmitate residue is in the Sn1- or Sn3- position make up no more than 16 % of all triglycerides present. The disclosure also relates to a method for preparing a protein hydrolysate, in particular for use in the formula of the invention.
