The present invention relates to a method for converting insects into nutrient streams, such as a puree, an enzymatically hydrolysed puree, a fat fraction and a protein fraction. The invention further relates to the (hydrolysed) puree and to the fractions obtainable by said methods and to their use as a food or feed product or as an ingredient therefore. The invention also relates to a method for converting insect larvae into a composition with anti-oxidant properties. Thus, the invention also relates to a method for converting insect larvae into an antioxidant composition. In addition, the invention relates to a composition with anti-oxidant properties obtainable by said method and to the use of the composition as a health promoting food ingredient or as a feed ingredient.

Provided herein are supplements that include free amino acids L-glutamine or a salt thereof, L-leucine or a salt thereof, nd L-arginine or a salt thereof, and active IGF-1. The L-glutamine or salt thereof, L-leucine or salt thereof, and L-arginine or salt thereof can be present at a ratio of approximately 3:1:1. Also provided are compositions that include the supplement, such as a food product. The disclosure also includes, but is not limited to, methods for using the supplements, including improving the performance of an animal, improving a processing factor of an animal, or increasing intestinal health of an animal, where the method includes administering to the animal a food product that has the supplement.

Compositions containing one or more kinds of essential amino acids other than leucine and not less than 35 mol % of leucine, relative to the total content of essential amino acids, are useful for preventing or improving dementia or a depressive state, in particular, a depressive state caused by stress, have high safety, and can be continuously ingested or administered.

Disclosed is an amino acid/soluble polysaccharide coacervate that provides modified release of amino acid in the digestive system. A method is also disclosed for forming amino acid coacervate compositions to provide increased delivery and release of one of more amino acids, such as leucine, for example, to the intestine of a human and/or animal.
