Lots of International companies starting to invest to make the breast milk for adult

News24xx.com - A report in Bloomberg said a number of companies are investing heavily in making synthetic breast milk. Not for babies and children, but for adults. This trend is based on various studies that prove the benefits of breast milk, which is not only good for children, but also for adults. One of the ingredients of breast milk which is considered as a 'superfood' is human milk oligosaccharide (HMO).

It is reported that a company named, DuPont has a supplement containing HMO called CARE4U. While in Denmark, company named Glycom makes Holigos with similar content. In infants, HMOs strengthen the growth of the immune system and help to fight infections and inflammation. This content also helps brain growth, according to the latest research. Mentioned, similar benefits also apply to all ages including adults.

But a number of experts looked at this trend skeptically, especially if it will be sold at a very expensive price. One opinion was conveyed by the head of the American Academy of Pediatrics nutrition committee, Steven A Abrams. "Never assume that the synthetic breast milk can compete with the natural breast milk" he said, quoted from Bloomberg on Saturday, April 13th 2019.

Synthetic breast milk with HMO content is claimed to be able to overcome various health problems in adults. These include irritable bowel syndrome, allergies, and even brain aging.
