Slide 1 of 4

Where Does MFGM Come From?
MFGM, Milk Fat Globule Membrane, is an important brain-building component that originates in mammalian milk.
How Does It Work?
In humans, as a milk fat globule is released from the mammary gland, it gets wrapped in a protective membrane. It then leaves mothers' breast to become a drop of breastmilk.
What's In MFGM?
Wrapped around every fat droplet of breastmilk, a naturally-occurring 3-layer membrane, MFGM is made up of important components to support brain function.
What Benefits Does MFGM Have?
MFGM is responsible for delivering key nutrients to the rest of baby's body, including phospholipids, gangliosides, sphingomyelin and proteins. These nutrients help support faster brain development.

We Took the Nutrients That Make a Difference in Baby Brain Development

...and Pioneered MFGM in Formula

Our innovative technologies and achievements in breast milk research brought MFGM's amazing benefits to infants.

MFGM's Big Benefit? We Call It Our MFGM 5-Year Benefit!

Emerging studies show the role of MFGM components and their outcomes in infant formula.

Improved Cognitive Development Through 5 Years of Age*

The ability to perceive, analyze, understand, store and recall visual information.

A cognitive ability that describes how quickly a person's brain receives, understands and responds to information.

A measure of children's overall mental performance.

*Cognitive skills as indicated by WPPSI-IV, tested at 5.5 to 6 years of age in a study of infant formula with MFGM.
