Abstract
Bioactive peptides are short chain of amino acids (usually 2-20) that are linked by amide
bond in a specific sequence which have some biological effects in animals or humans. These can be
of diverse origin like plant, animal, fish, microbe, marine organism or even synthetic. They are
successfully used in the management of many diseases. In recent years increased attention has been
raised for its effects and mechanism of action in various disease conditions like cancer, immunity,
cardiovascular disease, hypertension, inflammation, diabetes, microbial infections etc. Bioactive
peptides are more bioavailable and less allergenic when compared to total proteins. Food derived
bioactive peptides have health benefits and its demand has increased tremendously over the past
decade. This review gives a view on last two years research on potential bioactive peptides derived
from food which have significant therapeutic effects.
