Most of the plants used for human consumption comprise various peptides with health benefits, such as antihypertensive, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and immunomodulatory capacity. The intake of plant-based bioactive peptides is important in the prevention of some chronic diseases. Also, peptides show positive effects on lipid metabolism and mineral absorption and act as analgesic, antithrombotic, antiatherosclerotic, and opioid agents
it is pertinent to mention that peptides quite often exhibit multiple bioactivities. Bioactive peptides are released by the hydrolysis of digestive enzymes, that is, pepsin, chymotrypsin, trypsin, or by
