Protein Digest Biostile

Protein Digest – digestive enzymes with betaine HCl and zinc

Protein Digest is a food supplement in capsules with a broad blend of digestive enzymes, betaine hydrochloride and zinc. The enzymes cover the main food groups: proteins, carbohydrates, fats and plant fibres. The daily dose is 2 capsules, taken just before or with a meal.

Each group of nutrients is broken down by its own type of enzyme: proteases act on proteins, amylases on starch, lipase on fats, lactase on milk sugar (lactose), and cellulase and hemicellulase on plant cell walls. The enzymes in Protein Digest are obtained from microorganisms, from pineapple stem (bromelain) and from papaya latex (papain).

Key features

• Lactase enzyme improves lactose digestion in individuals who have difficulty digesting lactose (4,500 FCC units in 2 capsules, taken with a meal that contains lactose)
• Four enzymes for proteins: protease, acid-stable protease, bromelain and papain
• Amylase, maltase, glucoamylase and alpha-galactosidase for carbohydrates; lipase for fats; cellulase and hemicellulase for plant fibres
• Zinc contributes to normal macronutrient metabolism (1.5 mg, 15 % NRV)
• Vegetable HPMC capsules

Nutritional information

*NRV – nutrient reference value (Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011); – = not established.

How to use

2 capsules a day, taken together just before or with a meal, with enough water. If you have difficulty digesting lactose, take the capsules with a meal that contains lactose. Tolerance to lactose varies from person to person, so ask your doctor or a dietitian about the role of lactase in your diet.
