1. A method to promote, support or optimise de novo myelination, and/or brain structure, and/or brain connectivity, and/or intellectual potential, and/or cognitive potential, and/or learning potential and cognitive function in a formula fed subject, wherein the brain structure refers to an amount and/or a spatial distribution of myelinated matter throughout the brain of the formula fed subject and/or in specific brain regions of the formula fed subject, and wherein the cognitive function is optimised if scores of the formula fed subject in a standardized neurodevelopmental test are less than one standard deviation different from that of an exclusively breastfed subject of a well-nourished mother, the method comprising administering a synthetic nutritional composition comprising a phospholipid and/or a metabolic precursor and/or metabolite thereof to the formula fed subject.
