AI overview
AI generated. Not medical advice.What it's for
Digestive support, Protein digestion, Carbohydrate digestion, Dairy sugar digestion
Who it may fit
People who eat protein-rich or mixed meals and want help breaking down macronutrients, and adults who occasionally consume dairy and want support digesting lactose.
Key actives per serving
- Protease (neutral/alkaline): 172,000 HUT
- Protease (Bacillus subtilis): 143,000 HUT
- Bromelain: 1,800,000 FCCPU
- Fungal Amylase: 10,000 DU

How to take
Take 3 capsules daily with meals; you may split doses across meals for mixed macronutrient foods. Enzyme formulas are generally best taken with food to align with digestion.
Diet / Allergen fit
Vegan; Gluten Free; Soy Free
Ingredients explained
Protease (neutral/alkaline)
Proteases break peptide bonds in dietary proteins, helping convert them into smaller peptides and amino acids for easier absorption.
Caution: May cause stomach discomfort on an empty stomach in sensitive individuals because proteases are active on proteins; take with meals as directed.
Protease (Bacillus subtilis)
This microbial protease breaks down a broad range of proteins across varying pH levels to aid protein digestion.
Caution: Those with sensitivity to digestive enzymes may experience GI upset; reduce dose or take with food to minimize discomfort.
Bromelain
Bromelain is a cysteine protease from pineapple that helps hydrolyze protein into peptides and amino acids.
Caution: May increase bleeding tendency when combined with blood-thinning agents because it can affect platelet activity; stop use before surgery as a precaution.
Fungal Amylase
Amylase breaks down starches into smaller sugars like maltose and glucose to support carbohydrate digestion.
Caution: High-dose carbohydrate-digesting enzymes can cause gas or bloating as starches are rapidly broken down; start with food to assess tolerance.
Lactase
Lactase splits lactose into glucose and galactose to support digestion of dairy sugars.
Caution: If you have severe lactose intolerance, effects may vary; adjust intake based on dairy consumption and personal response.
How they work together
Multiple proteases focus on breaking complex proteins into absorbable peptides while bromelain adds complementary proteolytic activity from a different enzyme class. Carbohydrate-digesting enzymes like amylase and lactase address starches and dairy sugars, creating broader coverage for mixed meals.
