| Ingredient | Purpose† | 
| Amylases, Glucoamylase, Invertase | Support healthy digestion of carbohydrates | 
| Lactase, Fungal Maltase, Pullulanase | Support healthy digestion of sugars, including dairy (lactase) | 
| Cellulase, HemiSEB, Phytase, Beta-Glucanase, α-Galactosidase, Galactomannase | Support healthy digestion of vegetable and plant fibers | 
| Acid Proteases, Alkaline Proteases, Proteases, Peptizyme SP | Support healthy digestion of protein and peptides | 
| Lipase | Supports healthy digestion of fats | 
- α-galactosidase - breaks down complex carbohydrates from beans and other legumes† 
- Alpha Amylases - Additional support in the breakdown of carbohydrates into simple sugars.† 
- Beta-Glucanase - Breaks down beta-glucans from grains like barley and oats, aiding in their digestion.† 
- Cellulase - supports the digestion of cellulose found in f plant foods like fruits, vegetables, and nuts.† 
- Lipase - Supports fat absorption to reduce fish oil burps.† 
- Galactomannase - breaks down galactomannans found in beans and seeds† 
- Glucoamylase - converts complex sugars like maltose into glucose to support healthy blood sugar levels.† 
- HemiSEB® - complex blend of hemicellulases to support the digestion of complex carbohydrates.† 
- Invertase - converts sucrose, a sugar naturally produced by plants, into glucose and fructose.† 
- Lactase - The enzyme that breaks down lactose, the sugar found in milk and dairy products, to support individuals with lactose intolerance.† 
- Proteases (High DPP) - breaks down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids. This is a Protease/Peptidase Complex with endopeptidase, exopeptidase and DPP-IV activity† 
- Phytase (High DPP) - breaks down phytic acid, from seeds, supporting the absorption of minerals like iron and zinc.† 
- Acid Proteases - Enzymes that function in acidic environments, such as your stomach, aiding in protein digestion.† 
- Alkaline Proteases - Enzymes that function in alkaline environments, also aiding in protein digestion.† 
- Pullulanase - breaks down pullulan, a type of polysaccharide found in starch.† 
- Fungal Maltase - breaks down maltose into the simple sugar glucose.† 
- Peptizyme®SP - a protease enzyme that specifically targets peptides, aiding in protein digestion.†
