Popis: Different infant diets have strong effects on child development and may engender variations in fecal microbiota and metabolites. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of an infant formula containing sn-2 palmitate on fecal microbiota and metabolites in healthy term infants. The study involved three groups as indicated below. Investigational: the group fed a formula containing high sn-2 palmitate for 16 weeks. Control: the group fed a formula using a regular vegetable oil for 16 weeks. Breastfed: the group fed breast milk for 16 weeks. Fecal samples were collected at 8 weeks (
