Abstract
An edible composition comprising peptides rich in tryptophan, which edible composition further comprises a rapidly available glucose composition and a slowly available glucose composition.
Claims11
A formulation comprising at least two different water-soluble, tryptophan-containing peptides, which are di- or tripeptides comprising the peptides alanine-tryptophan (AW) or glycine-asparagine -tryptophan (GNW), and
- wherein the tryptophan/Large Neutral Amino Acid ratio of the formulation is at least 0.15, which composition further comprises a rapidly available glucose (RAG) composition and a slowly available glucose (SAG) composition,
- wherein the RAG composition and the SAG composition are present in the formulation in dry weight ratio's of:
- RAG composition :
- SAG composition between 1:0.5 and 1:4 ,
- wherein the slowly available glucose (SAG) composition comprises one or more of:
- pullulan having a number average molecular weight of between 1000 and 45000 daltons, isomaltulose, and/or mixtures thereof, and
- wherein the rapidly available glucose (RAG) composition comprises one or more of glucose, sucrose, maltodextrine, starch, starch hydrolysate, dextrose, and/or mixtures thereof .
A formulation comprising at least two different peptides selected from di- or tripeptides, whereby two peptides selected from di- or tripeptides are each present in an amount of at least 5 mol % of the total amount of di- and tripeptides, and in which more than 30 mol % of the total tryptophan is present as peptide bound tryptophan, and more than 40 mol % of the peptide-bound tryptophan is present in the form of a di- or a tripeptide, the formulation has a tryptophan/Large Neutral Amino Acid ratio of more than 0.15, which formulation further comprises a rapidly available glucose (RAG) composition and a slowly available glucose (SAG) composition, wherein the RAG composition and the SAG composition are present in the formulation in dry weight ratio's of:
- RAG composition:
- SAG composition between 1:0.5 and 1:4;
- wherein the weight ratio of the tryptophan-containing peptides:
- RAG composition is between 1:2 and 1:20.
