Class: Human Milk Oligosaccharide (HMO)
Format: Powder
MyOli® 6′-SL (6′-Sialyllactose)

Human milk oligosaccharide 6′-SL (6′-Sialyllactose) is the most abundant sialylated HMO in human milk.
Product features, details and benefits
- Health benefits and studies
The specific functional benefits of 6′-SL include reducing the risk of adhesion of harmful bacteria and their proteins.1, 2, 3 3′-SL and 6′-SL in particular support brain development in infants by supplying sialic acid, an essential building block for neurons.4
