During this podcast, Dr. Hauser will discuss the following questions:

  • Evidence suggests that HMO 2’-FL is associated with cognition in infants. What is the consequence for infants who do not have high levels of 2’-FL in their milk?
  • What is the mechanism behind 2’-FL specifically being associated with cognitive development?
  • Pre-clinical evidence suggests that the vagus nerve may play a role in allowing HMOs to support brain functions. What do we know about vagus nerve development in infants?
  • Will different HMOs affect different brain areas or functions?
