A method of reducing the accumulation of fat mass in a neonatal human infant at risk thereof which method comprises administering to the infant during at least a part of the neonatal period a therapeutic amount of a nutritional composition comprising proteins in an amount such that the composition contains more than 2.4g of protein per 100kca1. As weight gain during the first week of life has been associated with overweight in adulthood, this may offer a method of reducing the risk of developing obesity in later life. Also claimed is the administration of DHA to the mother during gestation period.

L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de réduire l'accumulation de la masse graisseuse chez le nourrisson humain néonatal qui lui fait courir un risque. Ce procédé consiste à administrer au nourrisson pendant au moins une partie de la période néonatale une dose thérapeutique d'une composition nutritionnelle comprenant des protéines en dose telle que la composition contient plus de 2,4 g de protèine par 100 kcal. Comme le gain de poids pendant la première semaine de vie a été associé au surpoids à l'âge adulte, cela peut constituer un procédé permettant de réduire le risque de développer de l'obésité dans la vie future. L'administration de DHA à la mère pendant la période de gestation est également revendiquée.
