DIGESTION
A blend of vegetarian digestive enzymes and herbal extracts to help maintain healthy digestive function. Includes the key enzymes protease (breaks down protein), amylase (breaks down carbohydrates) and lipase (breaks down fats), plus lactase, the enzyme that digests lactose, the primary sugar in milk, to which some people can be intolerant. Can be helpful during times of everyday stress or convalescence, and for those experiencing poor appetite and digestive problems, as well as for older people (as levels of digestive enzymes reduce with age).
A probiotic powder of beneficial bacteria to aid digestion and help support the immune function of the gut. Can be sprinkled on food. Ideal for children or adults after infection or antibiotic usage (which deplete the body’s store of probiotics bacteria), or as a daily supplement to support health.
The amino acid glutamine is the primary fuel of the digestive system and of the immune system, making this an ideal supplement for anyone at demanding times or during convalescence. Glutamine can also be used as a fuel by brain cells and is stored in muscles. The body can make glutamine from food, but a supplement can be valuable addition particularly when the body has increased demand for it. It may also be helpful taken between meals as an aid to appetite management. The slightly sweet powder can be stirred into drinks or sprinkled on food.
