Protein hydrolysates and/or bioactive peptides in nutraceuticals and functional foods

Vijai K. Pasupuleti and Elvira de Meija

• Although protein hydrolysates and/or bioactive peptides have been consumed in the foods from a very long time only recently scientists have focused their efforts to identify specific peptides and their role in nutrition.

• At the same time the manufacturers are refining their processes and embracing with the latest technologies to develop such specific protein hydrolysates/bioactive peptides.

• Further the scientific evidence is also increasing to use them as nutraceuticals and/or functional foods.

• As a result this field is rapidly growing and the sales of protein hydrolysates are increasing year over year.
