Each capsule contains a 4× concentrate of pancreatic enzymes, providing 1300 mg of lipase, protease and amylase activity to help the pancreas with digestion and control inflammation.
Pancreatin is a combination of digestive (protein) enzymes called proteolytic enzymes. These enzymes are normally produced by the pancreas and play an important role in the digestion of fats, proteins and sugars.
Scientific evidence supports the use of proteolytic enzyme supplements to improve digestive function, speed recovery from injury or surgery, and reduce swelling and bruising. Benefits in the case of autoimmune diseases or food allergies are less significant and await further study. As such, proteolytic enzyme supplements appear to represent good value for athletes wishing to improve recovery from exercise or injury, as well as for patients recovering from surgery.
New Roots Herbal pancreatin is standardized to 4× (four times stronger).
