PURPOSE: An additive is provided which is used as energy supplementation or metabolic nutrient. CONSTITUTION: The additive is characterized in that it is a protein hydrolysate having a degree of hydrolysis(DH) of 1-50, preferably 15-30 and especially about 25, which protein hydrolysate after oral intake rises the insulin secretion to a level above what is achieved by intake of the intact parent protein. Preferably the protein hydrolysate does not increase the gastric emptying, generally gives people less satiety, increases the glycogen synthesis or rebuilding after depletion and reduces muscle breakdown during metabolic stress. |
