Vinamilk Optimum is the first infant formula product with 6 HMOs in the Vietnamese market to date. This is also the largest amount of HMOs successfully added to a formula product, accounting for 58% of the total amount of HMOs in breast milk (compared to products containing 5 HMOs, the rate is only 48%).
The product is inspired by nutrients found in breast milk, supporting digestive health and resistance for babies, helping to reduce the pressure of raising children for consumers.
Accordingly, the two Optimum formula milk product lines supplemented with 6 HMOs are Optimum Gold (supports digestive health) and Optimum Colos (supports increased resistance).
"Unprecedented" progress
Breastfeeding is the wish of most mothers. However, in reality, not 100% of mothers can provide their children with this best source of nutrition.
Recognizing this, Dr. Luu Thi My Thuc - Head of the Department of Clinical Nutrition, National Children's Hospital - said that not being able to breastfeed completely prevents children from having full access to HMOs (macronutrients that play a role in nourishing beneficial bacteria in the intestines and supporting the health of the immune system).
"HMOs are the third most abundant macronutrient in breast milk, after fat and lactose, and more abundant than protein. Breast milk contains about 200 different types of HMOs. Only a few types of HMOs can be added to infant formula, including the most common and clinically proven HMOs," Thuc explains.
Faced with the above situation, for the first time in the infant formula industry, Vinamilk has made a breakthrough innovation by successfully adding 6 HMOs to the Optimum formula milk product.
The combination of 6 HMOs with all 3 main HMO groups (Fucosylated group: 2'-FL, 3-FL, DFL; Sialylated group: 3'-SL, 6'-SL; Non-Fucosylated group: LNT) creates the ability to resonate between probiotic strains, helping to effectively prevent and destroy harmful bacteria.
The product difference is the commitment to nutritional solutions for Vietnamese children.
In this new product launch, the two product lines Optimum Gold and Optimum Colos are launched with a new look and outstanding improvements.

Optimum Gold milk is supplemented with 6 HMOs with all 3 main HMO groups, helping to nourish a healthy intestinal microflora, prevent pathogens from adhering to the intestinal wall and support the enhancement of immune health, combined with 2 billion probiotics. This is a solution to support children with weak digestive systems, prone to problems such as constipation and diarrhea.
Meanwhile, Optimum Colos milk (formerly ColosGold) supplements 6 HMOs and 24-hour colostrum imported from the US with many IgG antibodies and probiotics isolated from HMP (Human Milk Probiotics) breast milk, helping to increase natural IgA. The two "protective layers" of IgA on the outside and IgG on the inside support strong resistance, suitable for children who often get sick.
"Upgrading" Optimum milk with a new formula, bringing differences in product strategy, and improving quality standards, according to Mr. Nguyen Quang Tri - Vinamilk's marketing executive director, this is also Vinamilk's commitment.
Mr. Tri said: "This new launch affirms Vinamilk's commitment to providing optimal nutritional solutions, helping to build an optimal development foundation for Vietnamese children."
The first milk brand in Asia to win an international award
Mr. Nguyen Quoc Khanh, CEO of Vinamilk's research and product development division, shared: "Optimum is the first milk brand in Asia to receive prestigious international awards such as "Purity Award" and "First 1000 Day Promise". This demonstrates our highest commitment to the purity, safety and transparency of Vietnamese dairy products.
This time with the breakthrough of 6 HMOs, Optimum is proud to continue to pioneer in improving the quality of Vietnamese milk, not only contributing to solving the nutritional problem for children, but also partly removing mental barriers for mothers when they cannot breastfeed their children.
