The plant peptide is a mixture of polypeptides obtained by enzymatic hydrolysis of plant proteins, and is mainly composed of small molecular peptides composed of 2 to 6 amino acids, and also contains a small amount of macromolecular peptides, free amino acids, sugars and inorganic salts. Ingredients, molecular mass below 800 Daltons.
The protein content is about 85%, and its amino acid composition is the same as that of plant protein. The balance of essential amino acids is good and the content is rich.
Plant peptides have high digestion and absorption rate, provide rapid energy, lower cholesterol, lower blood pressure and promote fat metabolism. They have good processing properties such as no protein denaturation, acid non-precipitation, heat non-coagulation, water solubility, and good fluidity. It is an excellent health food material.
The advantage of plant peptides compared to animal peptides is that they are cholesterol free and contain almost no saturated fat.。In addition, plant peptides can also:
Construction of muscle tissue: Experiments have shown that most plant peptides are as effective in stimulating muscle as whey proteins and do not contain cholesterol.
Helps control weight: plant peptides can increase satiety, limit calorie intake, thereby reducing belly fat and controlling body weight
Reduce the incidence of chronic diseases: chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, etc., are often associated with long-term intake of animal protein, but the intake of plant peptides does not have such risks.
Plant peptides are rich in 8 kinds of essential amino acids: well-known, animal peptides do not contain tryptophan, plant peptides can effectively make up for this defect.
Note: The 8 essential amino acids required by the human body are as follows
①Lysine: promotes brain development, is a component of liver and gallbladder, can promote fat metabolism, regulate pineal gland, breast, corpus luteum and ovary,
②Tryptophane: promotes the production of gastric juice and pancreatic juice; cell degradation
③Phenylalanine: involved in the elimination of kidney and bladder function loss;
④Methionine (also known as methionine); involved in the composition of hemoglobin, tissue and serum, and promotes the function of the spleen, pancreas and lymph
⑤Threonine: has the function of transforming certain amino acids to balance;
⑥Isoleucine: involved in the regulation and metabolism of the thymus, spleen and subarachnoid; the subordinate glandular commander acts on the thyroid gland and gonads;
⑦Leucine: the action balance isoleucine;
⑧Valine: acts on the corpus luteum, breast and ovary
