HMOs are complex carbohydrates that exist naturally in large quantities in our very first food, mother's milk. Naturally occurring, there are about 200 different ones and they have evolved over millions of years providing us with a unique nutrient. At Glycom we have a deep understanding of HMOs and their impact on the human body. All our HMOs have been clinically tested in infants, children and adults and have proven to be safe and beneficial.
We facilitate on-going HMO research through our HMO Donation Program. The objective of this innovative program is to promote further research around HMOs to gain a deeper understanding of the health benefits, modes of action, and potential applications of HMOs. The program also seeks to broaden the network of scientists and experts within the field of human health.
Driving HMO innovation is our business. Leading preclinical and clinical research through our internal R&D and extensive network of partners and thought leaders globally.
