Key Words Reflux; Carob bean gum; Galactomannans; Infants; Formula
Core Tip The present study showed that Formula A was more effective in decreasing esophageal acid exposure, the total daily number of visible and measurable refluxes, as well as acid reflux related symptoms, while such changes were not observed for the infants fed with Formulas B and C. Furthermore, a significant increase of body weight was observed for infants fed with Formulas A and C while that was not observed for infants fed with Formula B, probably due to the increased number of diarrheic and total defecations recorded in this group. These findings indicate that Formula A, containing 0.33 g/100 mL of cold soluble galactomannans, seems to be more effective in reducing certain pH-monitoring indices of uncomplicated gastro-esophageal reflux, increasing body weight and being well-tolerated by infants.
