Basic information: Mung bean peptides are small molecule peptide substances obtained from mung bean protein by enzymatic hydrolysis of mung bean protein using biological complex enzymes and targeted enzyme cleavage technology.
characteristic
Super solubility: It can completely dissolve in water or alcohol, overcoming the disadvantages of poor taste and poor water solubility of mung bean protein.
Good stability: Rich in branched chain amino acids, acid and heat components remain unchanged, and solubility is not affected.
Low content of free amino acids: ensuring the purity of the product, its molecular weight is mainly distributed between 130-750D, belonging to a mixture of oligopeptides.
Small molecular weight: easy to be absorbed and utilized by the human body, which can better exert its biological activity.
Effect and Function
Effect on human health
Enhance immunity: Rich in various amino acids, especially essential amino acids, it can help synthesize antibodies, improve the activity of immune cells, enhance immunity, and prevent infections and diseases.
Promoting intestinal health: With good solubility, it can promote intestinal peristalsis, increase intestinal patency, reduce constipation and gastrointestinal diseases, regulate intestinal microbiota balance, and maintain intestinal microbiota health.
Antioxidant and anti-aging: Rich in various antioxidant ingredients such as peptides and anthocyanins, it can neutralize free radicals, reduce cellular oxidative damage, delay cellular aging, and protect skin health and youthfulness.
Adjust blood sugar level: the polysaccharide component can slow down the rise of blood sugar, improve insulin sensitivity, help regulate blood sugar level, and prevent the occurrence and development of diabetes.
Lowering blood lipids: Rich in fava bean protease inhibitors, it can inhibit the synthesis of cholesterol in the liver, reduce cholesterol accumulation, lower blood lipids, and prevent cardiovascular disease.
Lowering blood pressure: Some components in mung bean peptides have angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitory activity, which can inhibit the production of angiotensin and thus play a role in lowering blood pressure.
Detoxification effect: Tannic acid and flavonoids in mung beans can combine with toxic elements such as organophosphate pesticides, mercury, arsenic, and lead to form precipitates, reducing or losing toxicity, and are not easily absorbed by the intestine.
Role in food and other fields
Supplementing nutrition: Rich in protein and various nutrients, it can provide the human body with essential amino acids and other nutrients, supplementing the body’s needs.
Promote digestion and absorption: It has excellent solubility, is easy to digest and absorb, can improve the utilization rate of nutrients, and reduce waste.
Increasing satiety: It can increase the retention time of food in the gastrointestinal tract, delay gastric emptying, increase satiety, reduce food intake, and help with weight control and loss.
Nourishing the skin: It has the function of moisturizing and repairing the skin, and can improve problems such as dryness and roughness, making the skin softer and smoother.
application area
In the field of health products, it can be used as one of the main ingredients of health products to supplement protein and various nutrients for the human body, enhance immunity, and improve health conditions.
In the field of cosmetics, it has moisturizing, antioxidant, and repairing effects and can be used in skincare products to improve skin texture and delay skin aging.
In the field of food additives, it can be used as a food additive to increase the protein content of food, enhance nutritional value, improve taste, and extend shelf life. Can be added to various foods such as beverages, dairy products, baked goods, meat products, etc.
Pharmaceutical field: It has antibacterial, antiviral, anti-tumor and other activities, and can be used in the pharmaceutical field to develop new drugs or adjuvant therapies.
