Albumin is the name given to any protein which is soluble in water, slightly soluble in salt solutions and is denatured by heat. It contains 584 amino acids. Its molecular mass is 65,000 atomic mass units (AMU). In human body, liver produces serum Albumin and constitutes 60% of blood plasma protein. It regulates blood volume by maintaining the oncotic pressure of the blood compartment. Albumin binds to surface receptors of cell Albondin. It functions as a carrier for many molecules, hormones and ions in the body. Deficiency of albumin is generally caused by liver disease, genetic variations and malignancy.

Alpha Lactalbumin is known to be the second most abundant protein in the human breast milk. Most infant formulas contain bovine alpha-lactalbumin because it is rich in vitamins and minerals. It consists of hundreds of amino acids and four disulfide bridges. Alpha-lactalbumin is a protein that binds with calcium that helps the body in the distribution and absorption of calcium. It contains cysteine that plays an important role in the production of glutathione. Alpha Lactalbumin improves the immune system function. It also help induce the production of melatonin and serotonin that helps in improving the mood, and regulating behaviour. It may also help improve the appetite, alleviate pain perception, anxiety and control stress.

Amylase is also sometimes called a starch blocker. As the name suggests, it prevents the body from absorbing dietary starches. It is present in the saliva. This is particularly benefits diabetic patients because it helps maintain and regulate the blood glucose levels. It also helps in maintaining and losing weight. It is effective in treating obesity. The ingested carbohydrates are broken down by the digestive enzymes which are then absorbed by the body. Amylase limits the capacity of the body in absorbing carbohydrates which are later on turned into glucose, a simple sugar, that can be used by the body as energy fuel.

Beta Lactoglobulin may be obtained from cow’s milk and goat’s milk, and is also present in many other mammals. It is the major whey protein consisting a cow’s milk. It is easily absorbed by the body. It also helps in making vitamins and nutrients more available to the body by binding itself to fat soluble vitamins. It is also an excellent source of branched chain amino acids (BCAA) that helps prevent muscle breakdown and promotes muscle tissue growth. It also helps in the treatment of individuals with cirrhosis. It also helps prevent allergic reactions in milk or lactic intolerance, particularly in infant formula.

Glycomacropeptides are a carbohydrate-rich casein peptide. They are formed as by product during the manufacture of cheese or rennet casein. It is included in many protein supplements because it is rich in salic acid, which influences digestive function and promotes the growth of bifidobacteria. Research also shows that it can increase absorption of calcium, zinc and iron. It is high in Branched Amino acids and is also shown to promote muscle growth. Some research also shows that it can suppress appetite by release of a hormone known as cholecystokinin. Glycomacropeptide also reduces gastric acid secretion by as much as 53%.

Lactase is an enzyme produced in the small intestine. This enzyme plays an important role in helping the lactose break down into two simpler sugars: glucose and galactose. Lactase supplements are given to those who are diagnosed of being lactose intolerant, which means they are unable to process lactose properly because they are lactase deficient. Most lactose intolerant individuals suffer from diarrhea, heartburn, bloating, indigestion, irritable bowel syndrome and abdominal cramping after ingesting milk products. The undigested lactose moves into the colon where it is fermented by bacteria, this produce carbon dioxide, hydrogen and other acids that cause the diarrhea, gas and cramps. Those who are Lactase deficient where also found to have problems with calcium absorption.

Protease is an enzyme that reduces inflammation. Inflammation is the body's natural response to injury, but increased inflammation retards healing process. It cleanses the blood of organic debris. Protease helps dissolve fibrin in the blood, reducing the risk of clots. Different specialized proteases like nattokinase are good at bettering quality of blood cells, reducing risk of clots, and optimizing ability of blood to flow through circulatory system. This helps decrease risk of stroke. It strengthens the immune system and kills viruses, bacteria, fungi, and molds. Protease eliminates autoimmune diseases. It helps dissolve scar tissue, which is made of protein. Proteolytic enzymes effectively dissolve scar tissue, especially in circulatory system. It can help decrease symptoms of MS, cleanse lungs and assist in detoxing.
