Digestive Enzymes is formulated with pancreatin, betain, ox bile, papain, and pepsin.
Pancreatic enzymes are the foundation for the digestion and absorption of the food we eat. The aging process and the various diseases that afflict the pancreas can drastically reduce the production of these enzymes and lead 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 particulary useful for people with low digestive enzyme levels.
Adults: Take 1–4 capsules daily with food or as directed by your health-care practitioner. Take with or immediately before a meal/food. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew. Use the smallest effective dose which controls symptoms.
Duration of use:Consult a health-care practitioner for use beyond 4 weeks.
