Embodiment 1
[0135] Identification of female clusters based on dietary pattern analysis
[0136] Data used for this analysis were obtained from 6 European countries. Participants were eligible if they were 18 to 40 years old at the time of recruitment, had a pre-pregnancy BMI of 19 to 29, and decided to breastfeed their newborn exclusively from birth to 4 months of age.
[0137] Assessment of Dietary Intake
[0138] Dietary intake was estimated using a 3-day food diary and calculated as a 3-day average. Food diaries were collected at 6 time points postpartum up to 4 months of lactation. Specifically, participants were observed starting at the last visit before delivery (V0) and then at six follow-up visits after delivery, namely day 2 (V1), day 17 (V2), day 30 (V3 ), day 60 (V4), day 90 (V5) and day 120 (V6). At each visit, participants were asked to provide information on their meal consumption for the past three days. Participant dietary information from all countries was then c...
Embodiment 2
[0152] Identification of nutrient deficiencies in clustering
[0153] Daily dietary intakes of nutrients for lactating women belonging to the identified clusters were compared with the EFSA dietary recommendations for lactating women. Therefore, nutrient deficiencies were identified for each cluster.
[0154] The results are reported in Table 3 below.
[0155]
[0156]
[0157] For example, for cluster 3, which is also referred to as the cluster of lactating women with high saturated fatty acid-type dietary patterns, insufficient intakes of vitamin A, vitamin D, vitamin E, folic acid, potassium, iodine and fiber were identified.
Embodiment 3
[0159] dietary supplement composition
[0160] Food compositions in the form of dietary supplements according to the invention may be prepared by incorporating into capsules ingredients comprising:
[0161] Vitamin A 400μg
[0162] Vitamin D 10μg
[0163] Vitamin E 5mg
[0164] Folic acid 120μg
[0165] Potassium 1150mg
[0166] Fiber 5g
[0167] Iodine 50μg
[0168] This product can be consumed daily (one serving per day) by lactating women with a dietary pattern high in saturated fatty acids, and can prevent nutritional deficiencies in lactating women with such a dietary pattern.
