contain between 3-20 amino acid residues and various generated peptides are denominated bioactives peptides due to their
determined health benefits to the consumers like antihypertensive activity. It is stated that main by-products of dairy industry are
whey, buttermilk, ghee residue and sometimes skimmilk. The techno-economic issues connected with the utilization of dairy by-
products and remarkable progressions have been made in processing equipments. It is reported that whey protein hydrolysates
enriched in free amino acids (AAs) and hydrophilic peptides could have been responsible for the rised insulinotropic response of
BRIN-BD11 cells. In this context, the potential utilization of whey protein hydrolysates and peptides can be performed as natural
complementary approaches; these could be implemented through dietary intervention and food-drug therapies for type 2 diabete
management by inhibiting DPP IV activity and thence increasing the half-life of incretin hormones.
