hydrolysed
Chemically broken down
Hydrolysed describes something that has undergone hydrolysis—a chemical reaction where water breaks down a compound into simpler substances.
The term appears most often with proteins: hydrolysed collagen, hydrolysed vegetable protein.
Baby formulas use hydrolysed proteins because they're easier to digest.
Also spelled hydrolyzed in American English.
