About this supplement

A broad-spectrum digestive enzyme capsule. New Roots Herbal Digestive Enzymes is built around porcine pancreatin at four times standard strength, supplying protease, amylase and lipase to help digest protein, carbohydrates and fat. It is rounded out with betaine hydrochloride, ox bile, papain from papaya and pepsin.

It is meant to be taken with a meal, and many people keep a bottle for heavy dinners or eating out. Because it contains pork- and bovine-derived ingredients it is not vegetarian. One hundred vegetable capsules per bottle, free of gluten, soy, wheat, eggs, dairy, yeast, citrus, artificial flavour or colour and sugar.

  • 100 capsules
  • Pancreatin 4x with protease, amylase and lipase
  • Plus betaine HCl, ox bile, papain and pepsin
  • Not vegetarian
Highlights

Digestive Enzymes is formulated with pancreatin, betain, ox bile, papain, and pepsin.

Pancreatic enzymes are the foundation for the digestion and absorption of the food we eat. The aging process and the various diseases that afflict the pancreas can drastically reduce the production of these enzymes and lead to bloating, gas, and feeling of fullness that persist due to impaired digestion. Each capsule of New Roots Herbal’s Digestive Enzymes is formulated with protease, amylase, and lipase to help digest protein, carbohydrates, and fat, respectively.

This pure porcine-sourced pancreatin 4× (four times the strength) is bolstered with betain hydrochloride, ox bile salts, papain (sourced from papaya), and pepsin for maximum intestinal digestive breakdown of the food we eat. This formula is particulary useful for people with low digestive enzyme levels.
