Tea-Myristol Hydrolyzed Animal Protein and the Alpha-Gal Friendly Diet
Tea-Myristol Hydrolyzed Animal Protein is a specialized ingredient obtained from the hydrolysis of animal proteins. It is often used in personal care products such as hair conditioners and skin creams for its conditioning properties. The hydrolysis process breaks down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids, making them more readily absorbed by skin and hair. When derived from mammals, it may contain the carbohydrate galactose-alpha-1,3-galactose (alpha-gal), which is relevant for individuals with alpha-gal syndrome.
