Product Details
A digestive enzyme is often used to help extract more nutrition from our meals, and relieve any discomfort that may occur. Enzymes are the bodyʼs biological workforce, so they are fundamental to healthy digestion and metabolism, energy production, and immune system balance. Unfortunately, very few people actually consume an adequate amount of enzymes from their day-to-day modern diets. As the body ages, it produces fewer enzymes with each passing year. Over time, insufficient enzymes can have a negative effect over the whole system.
Papaya Enzymes offers a wide range of active standardized digestive enzymes which help breakdown many food groups such as proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and fibre. This mint-flavoured digestive aid is suitable for those who have trouble swallowing pills, and also for vegetarians and vegans. Proteases can breakdown different protein sources. Amylase will act on starches and carbohydrates. Lipase will act on fats. Cellulase acts on hard-to-digest fibrous plant carbohydrates. Finally, Papaya, Papain and Bromelain will act mainly on proteins and fats, and are also known as proteolytic enzymes that have anti-inflammatory properties. Chewable delivery form allows product to go to work within minutes for faster action. Standardized activity levels for each digestive enzyme deliver consistent and reliable results.
