Natural Factors High Potency Multi Enzyme (VCaps)

Natural Factors High Potency Multi Enzyme provides a broad-spectrum blend of 13 plant- and microbial-derived digestive enzymes to help and enhance normal digestion. Helps digest proteins, helps reduce gas production following a meal rich in fermentable carbohydrates (vegetables, pulses, legumes, beans, and whole grains), and helps prevent gastrointestinal intolerance of fermentable carbohydrates. Vegetarian and vegan. Available in 60 and 120 vegetarian capsule sizes. Formulated by Natural Factors, a trusted Canadian natural health brand.

This comprehensive formula covers all major macronutrient categories: proteases (fungal and bacterial) for protein digestion, amylase and diastase for carbohydrates and starches, lipase for fats, cellulase and hemicellulase for plant fibre, lactase for dairy lactose, sucrase and maltase for sugars, bromelain (from pineapple stem) and papain (from papaya fruit) for broad-spectrum protein and fat digestion, and Peptizyme SP® Serratiopeptidase for systemic enzyme support. All enzyme activities are measured and expressed in FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) standardized units.
