Ammonium Hydrolyzed Protein and the Alpha-Gal Friendly Diet

Ammonium hydrolyzed protein is a type of protein that has undergone hydrolysis, resulting in the breakdown of proteins into amino acids and peptides. This process can enhance flavor and improve protein digestibility. The amino acids are then combined with ammonium, often to improve the taste profile of food products. This ingredient is typically derived from animal sources, including mammalian meats, making it unsuitable for certain dietary restrictions, such as alpha-gal syndrome.
