Breaking Down the Macros: Protein, Starches and Fat
Digestive enzymes break down food. But not every enzyme works on every nutrient: alpha galactosidase helps digest legumes and cruciferous vegetables (Notorious for causing abdominal bloating & discomfort) protease 3.0 helps digest proteins, and lipase helps digest fat. These digestive enzymes work in a variety of pH conditions. This is important, because different parts of your gastrointestinal tract (stomach, intestines, etc.) have different pH levels—which can also affect digestion.
Product Details
Research has shown that supplementing with digestive enzymes can promote optimal digestion and absorption of nutrients from the foods you eat.
1-3 This formula provides 10 vegetarian enzymes that help digest plant-based diets as well as protein, dairy, starches and fat.
Optimal digestion supports optimal health
This digestive health formula contains powerful digestive enzymes like alpha-galactosidase, protease 3.0 and lipase, as well as a 10 enzymes blend to promote optimal digestion of:
- Plant-derived sugar & starch—Alpha galactosidase promotes carbohydrate digestion and supports GI comfort by breaking down oligosaccharides found in foods such as legumes (beans) and cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, and others which are notorious for causing abdominal bloating and discomfort.
- Dietary fiber—Hemicellulase, xylanase and pectinase help break down plant cell components to promote optimal digestion and nutrient absorption.
- Protein—Protease 3.0 helps digest proteins at acidic pH, like in stomach. This enzyme helps break down stubborn protein and promotes digestion of gliadin (a compound found in wheat). Protease SP helps break down most soluble proteins into smaller molecular weight peptides and free amino acids.
- Fats—Lipase is an enzyme that helps break down dietary fats.
- Dairy—Lactase is essential for digesting lactose from dairy products.
This innovative vegetarian, gluten-free, and non-GMO formula promotes healthy digestion of and hard-to-digest starches, sugars and cellulose from vegetables, as well as proteins, fats, carbohydrates and lactose.
