The invention relates to a food supplement comprising at least the amino acids leucine, isoleucine, valine, threonine and lysine and Chromium. The invention further relates to food compositions comprising the food supplement as well as uses of both.

The present invention relates to a method for producing enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins, in particular from black soldier fly larvae protein as the protein source. In addition, the present invention relates to enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins and to Maillard reaction products of enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins, in particular from black soldier fly larvae protein as the protein source. Furthermore, the present invention relates to the use of the enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins or to the use of the Maillard reaction products of enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins. Finally, the present invention relates to a pet food product, a pet food ingredient, an animal feed product or an animal feed ingredient comprising, or consisting of, the enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins or the Maillard reaction products of enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins, and relates to a human food product or a human food ingredient comprising, or consisting of, the enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins or the Maillard reaction products of enzymatically hydrolysed water-soluble insect proteins.
