Nature's Sunshine Food Enzymes combines enzymes, bile salts, panceatin and betaine hydrochloride to help the body's capacity to digest meals. Improper diet, stress and aging can affect a person's capacity to digest food properly. Without complete digestion, nutrients from food are not fully absorbed.
This formula includes pepsin, which is used for pre-digesting proteins in the stomach. Betaine HC1 helps create an acidic environment to facilitate the activity of pepsin.
After food reaches the small intestine, the enzyme pancreatin further digests protein, carbohydrates and fats. Pancreatin also helps to support the pancreas.
Mycozyme digests starches; papain and bromelain digest protein; and bile salt makes fats soluble, preparing them for further digestion by lipase.
