Digestive Enzymes is formulated with pancreatin, betaine, ox bile, papain, and pepsin. Helps decrease digestive discomfort such as bloating after high-calorie/fatty meals.
Pancreatic enzymes are the foundation for the digestion and absorption of the food we eat. The aging process and the various diseases which afflict the pancreas can drastically reduce the production of these enzymes, leading to bloating, gas, and feeling of fullness that persist due to impaired digestion. Each capsule of New Roots Herbal’s Digestive Enzymes is formulated with protease, amylase, and lipase to help digest protein, carbohydrates, and fat, respectively.
This pure porcine-sourced pancreatin 4× (four times the strength) is bolstered with betain hydrochloride, ox bile salts, papain (sourced from papaya), and pepsin for maximum intestinal digestive breakdown of the food we eat. This formula is particularly useful for people with digestive enzyme deficiency, which can be due to a specific condition or simply age-related.
