Digestive Enzymes Ultra is a vegetarian capsule formula from Pure Encapsulations providing a broad-spectrum proprietary enzyme blend of 391 mg per serving. The formula brings together thirteen distinct enzymes selected to support the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, fiber, and dairy.
Multiple proteases with activity across a wide pH range support the normal breakdown of proteins and di- and tri-peptides. Lipase supports lipid breakdown, while amylase and glucoamylase support breakdown of polysaccharides including starch and glycogen. Invertase and lactase support digestion of carbohydrate disaccharides, including the dairy sugar lactose. Cellulase, hemicellulase, beta-glucanase, and phytase support breakdown of cell wall components and phytic acid, promoting nutrient bioavailability from fiber-containing foods. Alpha-galactosidase supports the breakdown of certain complex carbohydrates — such as raffinose and stachyose found in some vegetables, grains, and legumes — and helps relieve occasional bloating or gas.
The formula is vegetarian, gluten-free, non-GMO, soy-free, and dairy-free. Pure Encapsulations is certified gluten-free by the Gluten-Free Certification Organization (GFCO). All Pure Encapsulations ingredients, including those derived from corn, are GMO free.
