Ox Bile:

Ox Bile extract helps improve the secretion of bile from the gall bladder into the small intestine, which in turn breaks down cholesterol and other fats in the intestines during digestion. As a result, it helps the absorption of vitamins K, A, D, and E, can aid in the prevention of gallstones, may moderate cholesterol, and can be beneficial in treating liver disease.

Amylase:

Amylase is a digestive enzyme that helps break down complex sugars (starches) into simple sugar during the digestive process, making it easier for the body to convert into energy. Amylase is present in saliva, where it begins the chemical process of digestion. The pancreas also produces amylase, in order to continue breaking down starches, which other enzymes then convert into glucose, to provide additional energy for the body.

Protease:

Proteases make up a group of digestive enzymes that function to break down proteins during the digestive process. These enzymes are critical to human health because they liberate the amino acids in foods that are needed by the body. They can also break down cellular debris and toxins in the blood, allowing your immune system to concentrate on bacterial invasions and are effective in treating rheumatoid arthritis.

Lipase:

Lipase is another digestive enzyme that the body uses to break down fats in food into simple fatty acids and glycerol molecules, which can then be absorbed through the membranes of the stomach and small intestine for use by the body. It is primarily produced in the pancreas, but is also in the mouth and stomach. Lipase supplementation can be used to treat a number of digestive-related illnesses and conditions, including indigestion and heartburn, Celiac disease, Crohn's disease, and Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Cellulase:

Cellulase is a group of enzymes that break down cellulose, the structural component of plant cell walls. Since humans do not produce cellulose, it is difficult for us to digest cellulose, so it's normally excreted at the end of the digestive cycle as plant fibre. Cellulase supplementation can help the body break down these hard to digest plants, providing greater overall health benefits.

Invertase:

Invertase is an enzyme that is produced naturally in the mucosa of the small intestine, and encourages the breakdown of sucrose (cane sugar) into the simple sugars fructose and glucose, which can then be absorbed through the walls of the small intestine during digestion. These two simple sugars are by far the most predominant carbohydrate, and our most important source of energy.

Lactase:

Lactase enzymes help in the digestion of lactose, a milk sugar. Lactase enzymes are formed in the mucosa of the small intestine, and break lactose down into galactose and glucose, which the body can easily convert into energy. Lactase is a naturally occurring enzyme, but many people lack it in a sufficient quantity to break down the sugar into a useable energy source. People who don't produce enough lactase are said to be “lactose intolerant,” and can experience symptoms such as abdominal bloating, excessive intestinal gas, nausea, diarrhea, and abdominal cramping when they consume dairy products.

Maltase:

During the digestive process, starch is partially broken down into maltose by amylases (digestive enzymes in the pancreas and saliva). That maltose is then broken down into glucose by maltase enzymes, which are produced in the mucous membrane of the intestinal wall. The glucose can then either be used by the body for energy, or stored in the liver, as glycogen, for future use.

Papain:

Papain is derived from the papaya fruit, and is another proteolytic enzyme that breaks down proteins during digestion, turning them into amino acids that the body needs for health. It offers anti-inflammatory benefits, has been shown beneficial in dealing with irritable bowel syndrome, and may aid in the reduction of food allergies and sensitivities. Other suggested uses include remedies for shingles and allergies.

Glucoamylase:

Like amylase, glucoamylase is a digestive enzyme that breaks down polysaccharides (complex carbohydrates) into glucose, which the body stores for energy. Glucoamylase is produced from the fermented Aspergillus niger, a common fungus that can cause black mold on plants. Glucoamylase is considered an effective treatment for Candida, a yeast infection characterized by chronic heartburn, abdominal pain, gastritis, and constipation.

Alpha-Galactosidase:

Alpha Galactosidase is another enzyme derived from the fungus Aspergillus niger, and is characterized by its ability to break down carbohydrates found mainly in plants like beans, legumes, seeds, roots, soy products, and underground stems. Alpha Galactosidase is the active ingredient found in products designed to ease digestion, and reduce the bloating, discomfort, and flatulence caused by gas in the intestinal tract.

Hemicellulase:

Hemicellulase is an enzyme produced in the digestive tract that breaks down the component of plant cell walls known as hemicellulose. Humans do not produce this enzyme naturally in their bodies, so can only partially break down hemicellulase, thereby limiting our ability to use the energy found in fibrous plant materials.

Beta Glucanase:

Beta Glucanase helps break down beta-linked glucose bonds often associated with grains, such as barely, oats, and wheat. It also increases the overall efficiency of binding excess cholesterol and toxins in the intestines for removal. Beta Glucanase may be beneficial for food and environmental allergies, cell detoxification, colon cleaning and pain syndromes, Candida (yeast infections), gas, and bloating.

Other Ingredients: cellulose, silicon dioxide, vegetable stearate.
