Part of this study was financed by FrieslandCampina. The funder provided support in
the form of salaries for authors [JvN], but did not have any additional role in the
design of this study, data collection and analysis, decision to publish, or preparation
of the manuscript. The funder funded the clinical study published elsewhere (Bovine

Women: Results From a Nutritional Intervention Study With Bovine Lactoferrin, GOS
and Vitamin D. van Splunter M, Perdijk O, Fick-Brinkhof H, Feitsma AL, Floris-Vollenbroek

any links to dairy ingredients, and was designed and performed independently from
funder, through the university affiliation of JvN. The specific roles of these authors
are articulated in the ‘author contributions’ section.
