Provided is a soybean oligosaccharide product containing acidic soluble saccharides of soybean and probiotics, which at least include fructose, glucose, sucrose, raffinose, and stachyose, with a percentage of the combined weight of raffinose and stachyose being at least 46%, a weight percentage of fructose being not greater than 8.5%, and a weight percentage of glucose being not greater than 1.0%, based on the total weight of fructose, glucose, sucrose, raffinose, and stachyose. The soybean oligosaccharide product is prepared by extracting a soybean raw material with water under a pH of 3-6 and at a temperature of 50-70&#xb0; C. to obtain an extract containing acidic soluble saccharides of soybean, and inoculating and fermenting the extract with probiotics that are able to decompose monosaccharides and disaccharides, but substantially not able to decompose trisaccharides or tetrasaccharides.

Probiotics-containing soybean oligosaccharide product and preparation thereof

Peptides useful as angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors are provided. Also provided are compositions comprising one or more of the peptides and methods for preventing, treating and/or diminishing one or more syndromes associated with angiotensin converting enzyme by using the peptides.

Peptides and use thereof in the inhibition of angiotensin converting enzyme

A process for producing a peptide product having cholecystokinin secretion promoting effect, said process comprising hydrolyzing soybean residues with one or more proteases so that the peptide product having cholecystokinin secretion promoting effect is obtained. Also disclosed is the composition containing the peptide product and the use thereof.
