| Summary: | Breast milk is ideal nutrition for babies in their first year of life. If breastfeeding is not possible, the child needs to be prescribed an infant formula. The choice of product is based on the health status of the infant. Frequent complaints that a gastroenterologist encounters in everyday practice are associated with gastrointestinal disorders. Functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract are more often recorded. Timely relief/treatment of gastrointestinal symptoms is extremely important, since the potential benefits of this approach are obvious: prevention of the development of a vicious circle, possible complications and chronicity of the process. The basic strategy for the treatment of gastrointestinal disturbances in infants is nutritional modification, and the empirical product of choice in such situations may be formulas based on partially hydrolyzed protein. The ingredient composition of formula of this category is selected in such a way that conditions are created for the regulation of the gastrointestinal tract. The results of evaluating the clinical tolerance of the formula showed efficacy against colic and functional constipation in children of the first year of life: at the end of the observation period, these disorders were not recorded in children who received this product. |
