Description
Supplement to Aid Protein Digestion and Support Prevention of Gastrointestinal Intolerance of Fermentable Carbohydrates*
Comprehensive blend of vegetarian digestive enzymes; support for protein, carbohydrate, fat, fiber and dairy digestion‡
Digestive Enzymes Ultra contains a mixture of vegetarian enzymes to support optimal nutrient digestion. Proteases included in this formula are active across a wide pH range. They facilitate the normal breakdown of proteins and di- and tri-peptides. Lipase promotes lipid breakdown, while amylase and glucoamylase stimulate polysaccharide breakdown of starch and glycogen. Invertase and lactase support digestion of carbohydrate disaccharides, including the dairy sugar lactose. This formula also offers cellulase, hemicellulase, beta-glucanase and phytase. These enzymes break down cell wall components and phytic acid, promoting nutrient bioavailability of fibre-containing foods. Additionally, alphagalactosidase promotes the breakdown of certain complex carbohydrates, such as raffinose and stachyose, found in some legumes, vegetables and grains before they can be metabolized by gas-producing bacteria in the colon.

Verifiable Science
Digestive Enzymes Ultra contains an extensive profile of vegetarian digestive enzymes to support protein, carbohydrate, fat, fiber, and dairy digestion. Proteases included in this formula provide optimal activity across a wide pH range. They facilitate the normal breakdown of proteins and di- and tripeptides.1 Lipase promotes lipid breakdown while amylase and glucoamylase are included to stimulate polysaccharide breakdown of starch and glycogen.2 Invertase and lactase support digestion of carbohydrate disaccharides, including the dairy sugar lactose.3 This formula also offers numerous enzymes to support fiber breakdown, including cellulase, hemicellulase, beta-glucanase and phytase. These enzymes act to break down cell wall components and phytic acid, promoting nutrient bioavailability of fiber-containing foods.4 Additionally, alpha-galactosidase promotes the breakdown of certain complex carbohydrates, such as raffinose and stachyose, found in some legumes, vegetables, and grains helping to relieve occasional bloating or gas.5‡
