PURPOSE: To obtain a modified milk for rearing infants, manifesting the effect of accelerating calcium absorption, comparable to mother's milk, by adding vitamin D metabolites to the modified milk for infants containing calcium and phosphate.
CONSTITUTION: The subject milk is obtained by adding vitamin D metabolites to a modified milk for infants, containing calcium and phosphates in the composition. The metabolites are, e.g., 25-hydroxy vitamin D, 1.25-dihydroxy vitamin D, 23.25-dihydroxy vitamin D, 24.25-dihydroxy vitamin U, and 25.26-dihydroxy vitamin D. The phosphate is, e.g., the compounds originating from milk such as whey, namely triammonium phosphate, monopotassium phosphate, tricalcium phosphate. The calcium source is, e.g., calcium carbonate, calcium chloride, calcium hydroxide, calcium citrate of calcium lactate.
