HMOs, human milk oligosaccharides, is the collective name for oligosaccharides found in human milk.
In human milk as dry basis, HMOs are the third largest nutrient after lactose and fat.
Until now, scientists have identified more than 200 different HMO components, among which 2'-FL (2'-fucosyllactose) is the most abundant, occupying 20%-30% of HMOs, its concentration can reach up to 2.4g/L.
According to science findings, HMOs is important to the growth and health of infants and young children in at least three aspects, they are:

1) Improve intestine flora as prebiotic
