This invention belongs to the field of
food processing technology, specifically disclosing a sleep-improving active
peptide complex, its preparation method, and its application. The preparation method includes the following steps: S1, mixing and
grinding jujube seed and lily
bulb, sieving, mixing with kale
powder, adding deionized water, heating under
reflux for extraction, combining the extracts, filtering, and concentrating under reduced pressure to obtain extract A; S2, mixing dried
tangerine peel, hawthorn, and
kiwi fruit
powder, adding a 70% (w / w)
ethanol solution, heating under
reflux for extraction, combining the extracts, filtering, and concentrating under reduced pressure to obtain extract B; S3, mixing extract A obtained in S1 with extract B obtained in S2, inoculating with *
Lactobacillus plantarum*, fermenting to obtain a reactant; S4, mixing the reactant obtained in S3 with collagen cyclic
dipeptide,
spray drying to obtain the active
peptide complex. This active
peptide complex has good stability and
solubility, can significantly shorten sleep latency, prolong
sleep duration, and improve
sleep quality.
