Digestive comfort, nutrient absorption support
Who it may fit
Adults who want support when eating varied or larger meals, and those looking to optimise nutrient uptake from everyday diets.
Key actives per serving
- Pancreatin (providing protease, amylase, lipase): 145 mg (USP 4x; equal to 580 mg pancreatin)
- Lactase: 900 FCC units
- Bromelain: 36 GDU
- Cellulase: 299 FCC units
- BioPerine (piperine): 5 mg (standardised to ≥95% piperine)
How to take
Take 1 capsule with water immediately before each meal; those sensitive to spices may prefer taking with food. Enzyme products are often best taken with the first bites of a meal.
Diet / Allergen fit
Contains a bioengineered food ingredient. Capsule contains gelatin. Contains medium chain triglycerides from coconut and palm.
Ingredients explained
Pancreatin (providing protease, amylase, lipase)
Protease, amylase and lipase break down proteins, carbohydrates and fats into smaller molecules for easier absorption in the small intestine.
Caution: Sourced from animal pancreas; avoid if you follow strict vegetarian or vegan diets or have sensitivities to porcine-derived ingredients.
Lactase
Lactase breaks the milk sugar lactose into glucose and galactose, which may aid comfortable digestion of dairy foods.
Caution: If you are highly sensitive to dairy, start with a small amount to assess tolerance as individual responses vary.
Bromelain
Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that helps break dietary proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids for absorption.
Caution: May increase sensitivity if taken with blood-thinning agents; discontinue before planned surgery as a precaution.
Cellulase
Cellulase breaks down cellulose from plant cell walls into smaller sugars, which may help reduce fibre-related digestive discomfort.
Caution: People on very low-fibre diets may not notice much effect; adjust use according to meal composition.
BioPerine (piperine)
Piperine may inhibit certain intestinal and hepatic enzymes and transporters, which can increase the uptake of some nutrients and compounds.
Caution: Piperine can affect how the body handles some supplements and medicines; separate timing from sensitive medications when possible.
How they work together
Pancreatin provides broad digestive support for proteins, carbohydrates and fats, while lactase, bromelain and cellulase target specific hard-to-digest components such as lactose, complex proteins and plant fibres. BioPerine may enhance the uptake of nutrients and enzyme actives by influencing absorption pathways.
Safety and tips
Label Warning: For adults only. Consult a healthcare provider before use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, taking medication, or have a medical condition.
Who should be cautious: People with known allergies to pineapple or bromelain, or to pancreatic enzymes, use caution. Those with gastrointestinal conditions such as ulcers or reflux may be sensitive to piperine-containing extracts. If you take medications, discuss with a healthcare provider before use due to possible interactions with piperine-containing extracts.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place.
