A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12005083B1) discloses a method for supporting cognitive function and neuron cellular health in individuals by administering a nutritional composition. The composition includes a milk fat globule membrane component, at least one human milk oligosaccharide, and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA). The DHA is converted to a phospholipid form in the gastrointestinal tract, leading to an increased level of the phospholipid form of DHA in the individual's blood compared to those not administered the human milk oligosaccharide.

Furthermore, the patent claims specify the inclusion of 2'-fucosyllactose (2'FL) as the human milk oligosaccharide, along with additional components like arachidonic acid (ARA), Vitamin E, Vitamin C, and sphingomyelin in the nutritional composition. The milk fat globule membrane component is characterized by a low lactose content and high protein content, contributing to the overall efficacy of the method in supporting cognitive function and neuron cellular health. The patent also emphasizes the exclusion of dietary butyrate in the human milk oligosaccharide, highlighting the specific composition required for the desired outcomes.
