Claims14
A formulation comprising at least two different water-soluble, tryptophan-containing peptides, and wherein the tryptophan/LNAA ratio of the formulation is between 0.15 and 1.8, 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 1:1 and 1:3.
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, more than 80 mol % of the peptide-bound tryptophan is present in the form of a di- or a tripeptide, and the formulation has a tryptophan/LNAA ratio of between 0.15 and 1.8, 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 1:1 and 1:3
