Product Review

This comprehensive digestive enzyme formula can assist in the breakdown of a wide range of proteins, peptides,fats, complex carbohydrates, sugars, and fibers. These vegetarian capsules can be used by children or adultsto assist more complete and proper digestion of food as needed.Enzymes play a crucial role in digestion, as they break down food components into molecules that can be readilyabsorbed and assimilated by the body. Cooking and heat processing destroy raw food enzymes, placing thefull burden of digestion on the pancreas and other digestive organs. Fewer enzymes may be excreted in certainhealth conditions. Supplemental enzymes can assist in the breakdown of food and enhance the absorption ofvitamins and minerals by reducing food to its essential elements.See the Pro Digestion Intensive Line CardThis enzyme supplement contains:Plant-derived enzymes: This vegetarian formula contains enzymes that are active across a very broad pHrange, making them effective throughout the entire GI tract.A comprehensive blend of active enzymes: The broad-spectrum combination of enzymes in this productwork together to maximize the breakdown, absorption, and utilization of macronutrients from a wide spectrumof foods, including proteins and protein peptides, carbohydrates, disaccharides, and sugars, lipids/fats, andvegetable fibers. Special proteases (protein-specific enzymes) are included that have Dipeptidyl peptidase IV(DPP-IV) activity to support optimal cleaving of casein and gluten and their exorphin peptides (casomorphinand gluteomorphin). Serratia peptidase, a unique enzyme that helps protect sensitive GI tissues fromirritation, and lysozyme, an enzyme that helps break down bacterial and yeast cell walls, are also included.Hypoallergenic ingredients: This product contains highly purified, filtered enzymes to meet needs of foodsensitivepatients. It is free of porcine or other animal-derived enzymes and avoids fruit-derived enzymes(bromelain, papain, kiwi) for maximum tole
