HMOs (Human Milk Oligosaccharides) have long been widely recognized as ingredients exclusive to maternal and infant nutrition. As the wellness industry expands, the valuable active nutrients derived from human milk have shown remarkable potential in elderly health management. Drawing on its mature R&D and mass production capacity for HMOs, Longjian Bio has extended the application of its core nutritional ingredients to deliver innovative precision nutrition solutions for the elderly wellness market, fueling high-quality development across the industry.
A core biotech subsidiary of A-share listed Langkun Technology, Longjian Bio is one of China’s pioneering domestic enterprises to obtain official approvals for two core HMO raw materials, 2'-FL and LNnT. The company has also completed the layout of its full LNT product line, forming rare compliance advantages unmatched by most industry peers. Its production base in Zhuhai has achieved stable mass production of HMOs, with products passing rigorous verification by leading dairy manufacturers. Compared with imported alternatives, the company’s HMOs offer better cost performance and a steady supply chain, fully meeting the raw material demands of elderly wellness food, special dietary foods and functional nutritional products.
Elderly populations commonly suffer from intestinal aging, imbalanced gut flora, weakened immunity and chronic gastrointestinal discomfort. Conventional nutritional supplements such as calcium and protein fail to address these issues at their root. As a key active nutrient naturally present in human milk, HMOs feature a dual-action wellness mechanism that precisely balances intestinal microecology. On one hand, they selectively nourish beneficial bacteria including Bifidobacteria to relieve constipation, indigestion and gut disorders in seniors. On the other hand, they act as molecular decoys to trap pathogenic bacteria and viruses, lower infection risks, gently regulate chronic low-grade inflammation and strengthen the immune system of the elderly.
Longjian Bio’s three core HMO ingredients form a comprehensive wellness matrix tailored to diverse elderly care scenarios. 2'-FL alleviates gut flora degeneration among seniors and suits general wellness products; LNnT focuses on repairing intestinal mucosa for groups with sensitive stomachs, post-operation recovery needs and chronic gastrointestinal disorders; LNT delivers synergistic immune and metabolic regulation for premium functional elderly wellness goods, covering both daily maintenance and targeted therapeutic care.
