Plantizyme 90 Caps by Thorne Research is a vegetarian-source digestive enzyme formula designed to support proper digestion and alleviate symptoms of gastrointestinal discomfort.

Various factors such as illness, gall bladder removal, overuse of antacids, and normal aging can lead to insufficient secretion of stomach acid, pancreatic enzymes, and bile, resulting in impaired digestive enzyme activity and discomfort such as heartburn, gas, and bloating. Inadequate digestion can also lead to maldigestion and poor absorption of nutrients, potentially causing deficiencies in vital vitamins like A, D, E, and K. Additionally, poorly digested proteins can be absorbed by the gut, potentially leading to the development of food allergies as the body recognizes these proteins as foreign and produces antibodies against them. For individuals experiencing frequent indigestion, adequate enzyme support is essential.

Unlike many enzyme formulas that come from animal sources, Plantizyme features a vegetarian formulation. It provides amylase, protease, lipase, cellulase, and lactase derived from an Aspergillus fungus species. These enzymes work synergistically to break down fats, proteins, carbohydrates, and lactose, ensuring optimal digestion and absorption of essential nutrients.

To guarantee effectiveness, the enzyme activity in Plantizyme is determined using industry standard methods. Amylase activity is measured in SKB units based on starch digestion, protease activity is assessed in HUT units based on the hydrolysis of denatured hemoglobin, lipase activity is measured in LU units by utilizing olive oil for lipolytic activity, cellulase activity is determined in GD units based on hydrolysis of guar gum or methylcellulose, and lactase activity is measured in FCC units based on o-nitrophenol liberation.

Each capsule of Plantizyme contains a proprietary blend of digestive enzymes totaling 425mg. The formula is encapsulated in a hypromellose (derived from cellulose) capsule. It may also contain hypoallergenic ingredients like Leucine and Silicon Dioxide to fill space. The recommended dosage is one capsule with each meal or as directed by a healthcare practitioner.

Ensure optimal digestive health and alleviate discomfort with Thorne Research's Plantizyme 90 Caps. Support your digestive system with this vegetarian-source enzyme formula and promote proper digestion for overall well-being.
