Pediatric aspects of the problem of preservation of each person, above all, are to provide the baby with complete food in terms of the content of essential nutrients necessary for harmonious development, and it must be — functional. New concepts of adequate feeding of young children provide a balanced composition, biological value, multiple preventive effects of food. These requirements are сompletely presented in breastfeeding, which, despite the balanced content of essential nutrients, contains a mixture of biotics (pre-, pro-, synbiotics), among which a special place is — postbiotics. The most studied biotics are pre-, pro-, synbiotics, while postbiotics have not received adequate coverage in the scientific literature for a long time. Postbiotics — a relatively new term, which means biologically active components that are formed during fermentation, including microbial cells, metabolic products. Functional nutrition with the use of postbiotics has certain advantages in terms of safety, biological properties, pharmaceutical effects, compared with the use of live probiotics. At the same time it is possible to avoid risk of translocation of bacteria from intestine to blood, to provide a proper metabolism, stability. At the same time, the use of postbiotics enhances the effect of their own individual microflora, as opposed to the introduction of foreign probiotics into the intestinal lumen, which should be considered as a safe alternative to living probiotic microbes; which motivates the use of functional nutrition in children who do not receive breast milk. In modern conditions, it is already possible to use a mixture of Nutrilon Premium+, characterized by the content of prebiotics (scGOS/lcFOS), postbiotic (including 3'GL), enriched with a complex of vitamins, minerals, increased content of omega-3 and omega-6, which provides harmonious development and has a preventive effect in children who are deprived of the opportunity to receive breast milk.
Conclusions. The use of postbiotics in food (milk formulas) for children of the first years of life provides harmonious physical and psycho+emotional development, has a preventive effect (on functional disorders of the digestive system, infectious and allergic diseases), has a high level of safety and clinical efficacy. The combination of prebiotics (scGOS/lcFOS) and postbiotic — 3-galactosyllactose (3'GL) in new milk formulas has good tolerance, provides multiple prophylactic effects, which determines its functionality and advantages over other dairy formulas.
