Human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs) are complex sugars found in breastmilk that support the growth of beneficial gut bacteria in infants and provide protection against pathogenic bacteria. As the third most abundant solid component in breastmilk after lactose and fat, HMOs mimic components of the mucosal layer in the infant gut and prevent pathogens from attaching to and colonizing the intestinal wall. Research has shown that HMOs can promote brain development and stimulate immune cell development in infants. Due to their demonstrated prebiotic and nutritional properties similar to human breastmilk, HMOs are being incorporated into infant formula to deliver health benefits to bottle-fed babies.

Market Dynamics:

The global human milk oligosaccharides market is driven by growing awareness about the importance of HMOs in infant nutrition and development. As many mothers face difficulties in breastfeeding, the demand for HMO-fortified infant formula is increasing significantly. Major market players have developed technological capabilities to produce HMOs through the fermentation of various dairy and plant-based ingredients. However, the high costs involved in the production process pose a challenge to market growth. Ongoing research focused on reducing production costs could open up opportunities for the wider application of HMOs beyond infant nutrition in areas such as clinical nutrition, personal care, and supplemental food & beverages.
