“…The value of proteins as an essential source of amino acids has been well documented, but in the 1980s, it was recognized that dietary proteins can exert many other in vivo functions through BPs. The isolation of endogenous opioid peptides called enkephalins, which occurred for the first time in 1975, led to the discovery of the opioid peptide activity derived from partial enzymatic digestion of milk proteins [4]. Since then, the bioactive components derived from food proteins, in particular from milk proteins, have been subjected to numerous studies focused on their structural and biochemical properties.…”

Milk provides a wide range of biologically active compounds that protect humans against diseases and pathogens. The purpose of this work is to describe the main aspects and research lines concerning bioactive peptides: from their chemistry, bioavailability, and biochemical properties to their applications in the healthcare sector. In this context, the uses of bioactive peptides in nutraceutical and functional foods have been highlighted, also taking into account the perspective of innovative applications in the field of circular bioeconomy.Keywords: bioactive peptides; milk; nutraceuticals; bioavailability; biorefinery Bioactive Components of Milk: Focus on BPsMilk provides a wide range of biologically active compounds that protect humans against diseases and pathogens such as immunoglobulins, antimicrobial proteins and peptides, oligosaccharides, lipids, as well as many other components at low concentrations with significant potential health benefits [1] (Figure 1). Among these compounds, proteins play a key role as nutrients and as promoters of the physiological function and health role as source of Bioactive Peptides (BPs) [ Abstract: Milk provides a wide range of biologically active compounds that protect humans against diseases and pathogens.
