Смеси на основе козьего молока при выборе искусственного вскармливания новорожденного и ребенка первого года жизни

Mother’s milk is the most suitable product for feeding a newborn baby, its uniqueness is obvious. However, there are situations when breastfeeding is not possible at all or its volume is limited, so under certain circumstances mothers are forced to partially supplement or completely feed the child with an artificial formula. Although the composition of the ingredients in most modern formula feeds is similar, there are nevertheless differences in their composition and in the processing of the ingredients in the formula. In addition, the child may have individual taste preferences as well as unexpected negative reactions to any adapted milk formula. This review presents the achievements of recent years in creating adapted goat’s milk-based formulas for feeding newborns and first-year infants. Goat’s milk-based formulas have a number of advantages over cow’s milk-based formulas. One of the representatives of modern artificial formulas are those containing goat’s milk, which is characterized by low α-s1-casein genotype and high β-lactoglobulin content, which provides easier protein digestibility, contributes to more comfortable digestion and better absorption. Knowledge of the biological and nutritional value of goat milk, taking into account the peculiarities of the gastrointestinal tract of newborns and their needs, made it possible to develop and introduce into the goat’s milk-based formula the DigestX lipid complex, which is a complex of vegetable oils with a high content of palmitic acid in the sn-2-position in the triglyceride molecule, which is similar to breast milk. Goat’s milk, compared to cow’s milk, contains 4-6 times more oligosaccharides, which retain their beneficial properties in the production of artificial goat’s milk formula.Recent scientific literature data is presented, including that from the standpoint of evidence-based medicine, proving the effectiveness and safety of artificial goat’s milk-based formulas. The necessity of consulting mothers, psychological support and practical assistance not only in breastfeeding, but also in artificial feeding is substantiated.
