AOR Digestase

The health of the digestive system is essential to overall health, and the digestion of foods requires the help of many different enzymes. Recent research has discovered that supplementation with these enzymes can help support digestion, improve the health of the gastrointestinal system and alleviate the gastrointestinal burden of digesting food.

Digestase is a new and improved vegetarian enzyme formula containing a mixture of plant-based enzymes critical to digestion: amylase which digests long-chain polysaccharides, two types of protease which digest complex proteins, lipase which digests fats, and invertase which digests sucrose. New additions to Digestase include cellulase which digests cellulose fibers, lactase which digests lactose, and alpha-galactosidase which digests oligosaccharides (the complex carbohydrates found in beans and legumes) and reduces gas and bloating associated with such foods.

AOR Advantage
AOR’s Digestase is formulated based on extensive and up to date scientific research conducted by a European Research Organization called TNO, in the most advanced study on the human digestive system. This formula contains two types of proteases and lipases that are activated at different pH ranges in order to facilitate guaranteed protein digestion. In total, seven types of enzymes are included in the formula to enhance overall digestion and nutrient absorption. Digestase contains enzymes from plant sources making it suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

Discussion
Digestase is formulated with plant-based digestive enzymes that activate at different areas of the digestive tract for better and faster relief from digestive discomfort. Digestase helps prevent symptoms of lactose intolerance. It also helps reduce gas production following a meal rich in fermentable carbohydrates such as vegetables, pulses, legumes, beans and whole grains and can help prevent gastrointestinal intolerance of oligosaccharides/fermentable carbohydrates.
