New York City, NY -- (SBWIRE) -- 12/19/2016 -- Alpha-lactalbumin is a bioactive milk protein which is primarily found in whey protein. Whey protein contains around 20-25% of alpha-lactalbumin in it. Alpha-lactalbumin is rich in glutathione, an amino acid which helps in increasing immunity. Alpha-lactalbumin helps in raising serotonin and glutathione (a vital antioxidants) concentration which enhances brain functions and improves sleep disorders. Alpha-lactalbumin helps in inhibiting human colon cancer cells and breast cancer cells. Alpha-lactalbumin is a type of protein present in human milk that is primarily important for infant nutrition. Alpha-lactalbumin contains high amount of tryptophan, an amino acid which acts as a predecessor to the neurotransmitter serotonin that plays a vital role in regulating neurobehavioral effects which are as pain perception, appetite, mood under stress, stress control, brain functions under stress and anxiety.
