The first phase of the world's first clinical study of symbiotic meta-sensitivity-resistant formula "Dragon", jointly conducted by Danone Open Research Center and experts from 6 authoritative medical institutions in China, was officially published in Nutrition, the top international nutrition professional journal. The results of this study show the support of good growth and development of infants and the improvement of intestinal function, which is of great significance for the nutritional intervention of 1000 days in the early life of Chinese children, and provides a solid research cornerstone and clinical evidence for the development of pediatric nutrition science.
Gregg Ward, head of Danone's Open Research Center, said: "Technological innovation is an important part of Danone's strategic core competitiveness and the focus of its development in China. Deeply rooted in the Chinese market for many years, Danone continues to strengthen local insights and combine with global research and innovation to develop products and services that meet the nutritional and health needs of Chinese consumers, accelerating the pace of innovation that began in China and benefits the world. To date, Danone China Open Research Center has published more than 15 scientific research papers, including 3 clinical studies. ”
Nutrition revealed for the first time the details of this study based on Chinese babies. Clinical results showed that the partial hydrolyzed formula with the addition of syneo can support good growth and development in infants, which is clinically very consistent with the reference group of naturally fed infants. In addition, babies who consumed this formula had good gastrointestinal tolerance, soft stools, almost no gastrointestinal discomfort such as spitting up milk and milk spillage, and had a healthier stool frequency, which was closer to the gold standard in the natural feeding state than the control group that consumed other formulas.
It is understood that the study on the growth and development of Chinese infants and gastrointestinal tolerance, named "Dragon", adopted the internationally rigorous "multi-center randomized controlled trial" (4 cities and 6 research centers) method to ensure the acquisition of high-quality clinical data on the growth, tolerance and immune indicators of Chinese infants in different regions. The study covered small, sensitive babies at risk of allergies: more than 30% of babies with a family history of allergies (at least one parent, sibling, or sibling) and autopsies.
As an international professional academic journal, Nutrition has always enjoyed a high reputation in the field of nutrition. The advanced clinical nutrition research results published in Nutrition will become an important cornerstone and scientific evidence for future nutrition scientific research, further promoting the solution of more nutritional problems and promoting human well-being. Therefore, Nutraingredients, an international authoritative media in the field of food nutrition, also reported on this research result. At the same time, the results have also been publicly released on the official website of WCPGHAN/ESPGHAN, the top international pediatric society.
The person in charge of Danone Open Research Center pointed out that since its completion last year, Danone Open Scientific Research Center has become a fusion innovation link and accelerator for Danone's strong global R&D experience and China's local in-depth insights, which has greatly improved Danone's local R&D innovation capabilities and accelerated the speed of R&D results to reach consumers. As one of the first research projects of the Danone Open Research Center "in China, for China, and then for the benefit of the world", "Dragon" research has exported high-quality and significant global science with Chinese experience. This is another important practice of the Danone Open Research Center's commitment to building an open, collaborative and inclusive ecosystem of nutrition innovation in China, and fully supporting Healthy China 2030.
