Lotte Food Pasteur Launches WithMom Care Solution Enhanced for 'Digestion and Absorption'

[Asia Economy Reporter Choi Saeng-hye] Lotte Food Pasteur announced on the 22nd that it will upgrade and launch Withmom formula as Withmom Care Solution.

This is the first upgrade release in three years since the renewal in 2017 applying the synbiotics system.

Pasteur changed the product name to Withmom Care Solution to emphasize comfortable nutrition design for babies. First, it helped comfortable digestion and absorption with a partially hydrolyzed protein design that breaks down proteins, which are difficult for babies to digest, into smaller pieces. It also upgraded the synbiotics system for the baby's golden stool. Synbiotics is a mixture of probiotic lactic acid bacteria and prebiotics, which serve as food for the lactic acid bacteria, optimizing the functionality of the probiotics.

The probiotics content was increased with BB-12® lactic acid bacteria from Christian Hansen, a globally renowned probiotic manufacturer. Withmom contains four types of multi-probiotics, which have been upgraded. The prebiotics, which serve as food for the probiotics, were also expanded from the existing two types (galactooligosaccharide, fructooligosaccharide) to three by adding inulin, a type of dietary fiber.

Especially for infants with weak digestion, stage 1 formula applies the patented human milk fat structure OPO (patent number 10-1411679). OPO is made to have a fat acid structure similar to human milk through a patented enzymatic process. OPO helps digestion and absorption and promotes soft bowel movements, allowing the baby to maintain a more comfortable state. In fact, the human milk fat structure has been clinically proven to reduce babies' crying time by 75%. The fat in human milk is a major energy source for babies and an essential core component of human milk necessary for brain development.

The existing advantages have also been maintained. It applied plant-based DHA for the first time in domestically manufactured formula. Plant-based DHA is extracted by cultivating seaweed in large fermentation tanks, making it free from various marine pollutants. The ratio of DHA and arachidonic acid, which help brain development, was adjusted to 1:2 according to the recommended amounts by international organizations (FAO and WHO). Also, the MSD method, which dries raw milk in three stages during formula manufacturing, was used to minimize nutrient heat denaturation.
