Allowing them to reach the small intestine where most digestion takes place.
Supports the digestion of beans and pulses, helping reduce gas and bloating.
Digestive enzymes are produced naturally by our bodies, but there may be times when we need extra support. Particularly as we age, or during periods of illness, our enzyme activity may decline, and so the breakdown and absorption of vital nutrients may be compromised.
Essential Digestive Plus™ is a broad spectrum of vegetarian digestive enzymes which help extract nutrients from all the main food groups.
The formula includes:
• Protease breaks down protein
• Lipase breaks down fat
• Cellulose breaks down vegetable fibre
• Lactase breaks down lactose, milk sugar
• Amylase breaks down starches, sugars & carbohydrates
• Alpha galactosidase breaks down fermentable carbohydrates
• Pectinase breaks down pectin, a polysaccharide found in plant cell walls.
Plus Fruta-Fit Inulin, a prebiotic fibre which supports the growth of beneficial bacteria in the
large intestine, especially Bifidobacteria. These bacteria help increase short chain fatty acid
production which improves the working of the intestine contributing to good bowel
movement and digestion.
