Product Notes:
Are you prone to gastrointestinal issues, such as gas, bloating, cramping, heartburn, wind, or constipation? Chances are, you're not digesting your meals fully, due to one or more enzyme deficiency. This is to be expected, since our bodies produce about 13% less digestive enzymes every decade past the age of 20, and we also produce less hydrochloric acid, which activates those enzymes.
Malabsorption symptoms can not only cause inconvenience and embarrassment, but also impact our health or performance in other ways. Incomplete digestion deprives our immune system of important nutrients, and our bodies may also be producing fewer metabolic enzymes all the other cells need to function properly if it is struggling to produce enough digestive enzymes, and if we are not digesting cooked fats properly, they may be building up in our arteries.

Full Spectrum Digestive Enzyme - Function of Individual Ingredients:
- Acid maltase: Breaks down malt sugar.
- Alpha-Amylase: Breaks down starch.
- Alpha-galactosidase: Breaks down complex carbohydrates, prevents intestinal gas.
- Beet (root): Helps the kidneys and liver to process the amino acid known as SAM-e.
- Bromelain: Proteolytic enzyme from pineapple; breaks down proteins, reduces inflammation, and treats indigestion.
- FOS (Chicory root): Increases the flow of bile, supporting digestion.
- Glucoamylase: Breaks down carbohydrates.
- Invertase: Breaks down sugars.
- Kale: Prevents constipation promoting regularity and a healthy digestive tract.
- L-Lysine (fermented): Supports the production of other proteins such as enzymes, antibodies and hormones.
- Lactase: Breaks down lactose in milk to make it possible for people with lactose intolerance to consume dairy without digestive problems.
- Lipase: Breaking down lipids (fats), in particular triglycerides, fat in the diet.
- Ox Bile: Bile helps digest the fats you eat, and aids in absorption of fat soluble vitamins.
- Vegpanzyme Plus (Amylase, Lipase, Protease): Relieves symptoms of indigestion (e.g., feeling of fullness, gas, bloating); helps the body to digest protein, starch, and fat.
- Papain: From papaya, helps break down proteins such as meat, also decreases swelling and inflammation in the colon; useful for with Crohn's or celiac disease and ulcers.
- Peppermint: Aids in digestion, activates an anti-pain channel in the colon, (TRPM8), and reduces the pain linked to spicy foods.
- Vegpeptase: Breaks down proteins found in meat, eggs, dairy and other foods.
- Protease 3.0, 4.5, 6.0: Breaks down the peptide bonds in the protein foods separating the various amino acids needed by the body.
- Protease (I& II): Breaks down proteins.
