Human Milk alone is unable to meet the high nutritional requirements of preterm infants. The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends fortification of human milk as a standard practice in all very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. Multi-nutrient human milk fortifiers (HMFs) are designed to meet the macro and micro-nutrient needs of VLBW infants. HMFs differ by the origin of milk and by nutrient composition. Traditionally, bovine milk has been the main source of multi-nutrient HMFs.
