Abstract

The invention disclosed herein comprises fat compositions primarily for use in nutritionally complete infant formulas in which the constituent palmitic acid oils and lauric acid oils are corandomized. The invention additionally includes such corandomized fat compositions with medium-chain triglycerides added, particularly for use in nutritional products for preterm or low birthweight infants. The invention further includes such fat compositions in which the constituent palmitic acid oils and oleic acid oils are corandomized. Such corandomization of two or more oils yields a mixture of triglycerides having a substantially different chemical makeup than that of the native oils themselves or than the native oils when randomized individually. Corandomization of the palmitic acid oils and the lauric acid oils or of the palmitic acid oils and the oleic acid oils affords an economical means of providing a very highly absorbed fat composition.
