Active Enzymes

Protease is a digestive enzyme that supports the optimal breakdown of dietary proteins. The acid stable protease in Active Enzymes is formulated to withstand the acidic, low-pH environment of the stomach.*

Other protease enzymes included in this formula: Serratia, Peptidase, Papain, Bromelain

Amylase is a digestive enzyme that converts carbohydrates into usable energy and promotes complete digestion of starches.*

Complementary enzymes in this formula: Glucoamylase, Maltase, Invertase

This enzyme breaks down specific types of carbohydrates found in plant foods that can be difficult to digest, particularly those in legumes and cruciferous vegetables, including cauliflower, cabbage, and broccoli. When you have enough alpha-galactosidase, you can enjoy the health benefits of these nutritious foods.*

Lipase is a digestive enzyme that breaks down and enables absorption of fats and oils. Lipase also helps maintain levels of cholesterol and triglycerides in the blood that are already within the normal range, which is important for heart health.*

Lactase is a digestive enzyme that breaks down lactose, a sugar in dairy products. Adding lactase to your supplement regime can help if you have difficulty digesting lactose.*

Another lactose-targeting enzyme in this formula: Beta-D-Galactosidase.

Cellulase is a digestive enzyme that helps break down the fibers in plant foods and balance good gut bacteria.*

Phytase breaks down phytic acid in grains and seeds, converting it to phosphate and releasing essential minerals.*
