Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention relates to nutrition for infants and young children with particular lipid globules, resulting in programming the metabolism to an increased energy expenditure and improved mitochondrial functioning later in life when exposed to a high fat, high energy diet.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

1 . A method for increasing expression and/or activity of (1) uncoupling protein (UCP), (2) pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase-isozyme 4 (PDK4), (3) citrate synthase (CS) and/or (4) oxidative phosphorylation complex in a human subject when the human subject has reached an age above 36 months comprising providing a nutritional composition comprising lipid to the human subject when the human subject has an age of 0 to 36 months, wherein the lipid is present in the nutritional composition in an…
