10 VEGAN CERTIFIED ENZYMES -

including protease, lipase and lactase, and plant-based bromelain & papain to support the breakdown of carbohydrates, protein, fat, plant fibre and lactose

BOOSTED WITH BETAINE HCl -

betaine hydrochloride (HCl) supports stomach acid levels, important for the breakdown of protein. Low levels of stomach acid are associated with indigestion and reflux

MAXIMISE NUTRIENT RELEASE & IMPROVE GUT HEALTH -

by supporting the breakdown of food, nutrients can be released and absorbed from the diet. Optimal digestion supports gut health and helps to improve tolerance to foods

FAST DISSOLVE CAPSULES -

capsules break down quickly so the enzymes can get to work immediately. Simply take one capsule at the start of a meal

Boosted with betaine HCl

Betaine hydrochloride (HCl) supports stomach acid levels which is important for the breakdown of protein from the diet. Low levels of stomach acid are associated with indigestion and reflux so by combining betaine HCl with digestive enzymes, this complex delivers comprehensive support for digestion.

Fast-dissolve & acid resistant

Digestive Enzymes & Betaine HCl is delivered in fast-dissolve capsules which break down quickly, allowing the enzymes to get to work fast. The vegan enzymes in this supplement have a broader pH range of activity than animal-based enzymes and can withstand the acidic environment of the stomach.

Maximise nutrient availability

Breaking foods down optimally helps with the release of nutrients from the diet. By providing a broad-spectrum of digestive enzymes with betaine HCl to support stomach acidity levels, this complex supports the breakdown of proteins, fats and carbohydrates, as well as the breakdown of more difficult to digest foods, such as plant-fibres and lactose.

Break down plant foods

Many plant foods can be difficult to digest and often lead to unwelcome bloating, digestive discomfort, and gas. Our broad-spectrum digestive enzyme formula provides 10 digestive enzymes to support the digestion of a wide range of foods, including amylase and cellulase to aid the breakdown of fibre and plant cellulose.

Boost immune health

The function of the immune system is reliant on nutrients from the diet, and digestive enzymes may help to improve nutrient availability. Optimum digestion may also prevent undigested food particles from entering the bloodstream, which may otherwise cause an immune response. Finally, as a large percentage of immune cells reside in the gut, maintaining a healthy gut is ideal for health.
