Sea cucumber peptides refer to active peptides with special physiological functions extracted from sea cucumbers, small peptides composed of 2-12 amino acids or peptides with larger molecular weight.

Sea cucumber peptides generally refer to protein hydrolysates of small-molecule peptides and coexistence of multiple functional ingredients obtained after protease hydrolysis and purification of fresh sea cucumbers. It is reported in the literature that the effective utilization rate of sea cucumber protein is less than 20%. Because sea cucumber contains more collagen and the wrapping effect of collagen, sea cucumber protein is difficult to digest and absorb, and biologically active peptides are more easily absorbed by the body. With the characteristics of good solubility and stability, therefore, converting sea cucumber protein into sea cucumber peptide is the key way to fully utilize it. 

Application:

Sea cucumber peptide has the function of regulating human body, repairing damaged cells, so it is suitable for all kinds of people such as middle-aged, mental workers, people with kidney deficiency, sub-health and post-tumor surgery. And it is widely used in functional food, healthcare food, FSMP, cosmetic, etc.
