3 Antihypertensive Peptides Very few studies are available on the potential of meat proteins as sources of bioactive peptides. The most studied biological activity is the antihypertensive activity based on the inhibition of the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). This activity seems to occur in normal feeding conditions and studies in humans have shown a significant decrease in arterial pressure compared to a control group following the repeated ingestion of fermented milk containing antihypertensive peptides (Jauhiainen and Korpela 2007).
