Mysterious effect of fermented milk
Milk is the present which natural grants mammal. It contains diverse nutrients such as lactose, proteins, lipids and other active components. By fermentation, these basic nutrients would be further converted to metabolites such as lactic acid, organic acids, short chain fatty acids (SCFA)、polysaccharides, and bioactive peptides. Among these metabolites, bioactive peptide is an effective and diverse component which bear various applications. Peptides likes a key to regulate cellular metabolism and physiological functions of body. There are increased peptide sequences derived from milk presenting multiple health functions and commercial value in pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, and cosmetic industries. Currently, development of ingredients with bioactive peptides shows a strong growing trend in global market.
