Bioavailable and Functional Zinc Supplement
Plant-based zinc-peptide complex designed for better absorption, safety, and clinical impact.
This project develops and validates a next-generation zinc supplement built on peptide–zinc complexes derived from chickpea protein hydrolysates. The goal is to offer a sustainable, plant-based formulation that improves zinc absorption, reduces gastrointestinal side effects, and supports both everyday nutrition and clinical care for vulnerable groups, including children, older adults, and oncology patients.
