Effect of Lactobacillus Rhamnosus GG (LGG) on Infant Crying, Intestinal Microbiota, and Intestinal Inflammation in Infants With Colic
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Nutramigen with Enflora and Nutramigen A+ for Colic and Inflammation. Completed, enrolled 30 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
This study will compare 2 currently marketed formulas in healthy full term babies: Nutramigen A+ (a hypoallergenic formula) and Nutramigen-Enflora (hypoallergenic formula with Lactobacillus GG (LGG)) during 3 months of formula feeding. The investigators' aims are to compare 3 outcomes in these babies: (1) normal baby crying time; (2) the composition of intestinal microbiota (bacteria in the stool); and (3) a lab test which measures the number of white blood cells in the large intestine (fecal calprotectin). The investigators predict that LGG supplementation (Nutramigen-Enflora) will facilitate its establishment as an important component of the neonatal intestinal microbial community and reduce fecal calprotectin.
