A fat accumulation suppressor comprising as an active ingredient a whey protein hydrolysate is provided. The hydrolysate has a molecular weight range of no higher than 10 kDa and a main peak of molecular weight at 200 Da to 3 kDa; an APL (average peptide chain length) of 2 to 8; a free amino acid content of 20% or lower; a branched chain amino acid content of 20% or higher; and an antigenicity of 1/100,000 or lower relative to β-lactoglobulin. |
