Vitamin D (VD), a crucial micronutrient, regulates bone health and immune responses. Recent studies suggest that VD may confer protective effects against chronic inflammatory diseases. Additionally, plant-based peptides can show biological activities.

Nutritional strategies, such as using bioactive peptides with anti-inflammatory properties from sources like hemp protein, are gaining interest as an alternative to pharmacological therapies. In this study, we used an LRRK2-associated PD mouse model to test the efficacy of a hempseed protein hydrolysate (HPH60A + 15F) with antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.
