A nutrient delivery system includes a protein system, calcium, zinc, and iron. The protein system includes a calcium binding protein in an amount of 40% to 75% by weight of the protein system, a zinc binding protein in an amount of 10% to 30% by weight of the protein system, and an iron binding protein in an amount of 10% to 30% by weight of the protein system. The calcium binding protein and the calcium are present in a weight ratio of 13:1 to 25:1, the zinc binding protein and the zinc are present in a weight ratio of 6:1 to 900:1, and the iron binding protein and the iron are present in a weight ratio of 5.4:1 to 800:1. |
