Ingredients explained
Protease
Protease breaks dietary proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids to aid protein digestion and absorption.
Caution: Take with meals to match when protein is consumed; those with known allergies to enzyme sources should review labels.
Amylase
Amylase breaks down complex carbohydrates and starches into simple sugars for easier digestion.
Caution: Take with meals containing carbs; may cause mild digestive discomfort in some individuals.
Lipase
Lipase breaks dietary fats into fatty acids and glycerol to support fat digestion.
Caution: Best taken with meals that contain fat; high doses may cause gastrointestinal upset in sensitive users.
Lactase
Lactase splits lactose into glucose and galactose to help digest dairy sugars.
Caution: People sensitive to dairy may still react to other dairy components; dose needs vary with dairy intake.
Alpha-galactosidase, invertase, maltase, cellulase (from blend)
These enzymes help break down specific plant fibers and sugars such as sucrose, maltose, and complex plant carbohydrates to support overall carbohydrate digestion.
Caution: Start with the suggested serving to assess tolerance, as added carbohydrate-digesting enzymes may change digestive comfort.
How they work together
Protein-, fat-, and carbohydrate-digesting enzymes work at different steps of digestion, helping break down major macronutrients into absorbable units. Additional enzymes for dairy sugar and plant carbohydrates fill gaps in typical digestive needs when meals include varied foods.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: Consult a healthcare provider before use if pregnant, nursing, taking medications, have a medical condition, or are planning a medical procedure. Stop use and contact a physician if adverse reactions occur.
Storage: Store at room temperature.
