Dairy Digest Complete 90caps Now

Now® Dairy Digest Complete was developed to aid the digestion of dairy products by preventing the onset of symptoms related to lactose intolerance. Its formula combines several digestive enzymes: lactases, proteases and lipases that specifically target the digestion of lactose, proteins and milk fat. This enzyme mixture is produced through a controlled fermentation process of selected species of fungi - Aspergillus oryzae, Aspergillus niger and Rhizopus oryzae.

Lactase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes lactose and aids in its digestion. This enzyme helps transform lactose into monosaccharides, glucose and galactose, which are absorbed in the small intestine, enter the bloodstream and are used for energy production.

Clinical studies have shown that lactase supplementation can help prevent and reduce flatulence and symptoms associated with Irritable Bowel Syndrome.

Protease (also known as a proteolytic enzyme) is an enzyme that helps digest different types of proteins, including those in milk. When ingested, stomach and intestinal proteases break down milk proteins into small peptides or amino acids. Studies suggest that enzymes, mainly proteases, improve the digestion of milk proteins, decrease the permeability of the intestinal wall and even seem to regulate the Immune System. Thus, the risk of poorly digested proteins passing the intestinal barrier into the bloodstream and the immune system overreacting against them is greatly reduced, thus minimizing symptoms.

Lipase is a lipolytic enzyme produced by the controlled fermentation of Rhizopus oryzae. This enzyme has the function of breaking the fat (Triglycerides) of food into smaller molecules (glycerol and free fatty acids), so that they can be absorbed by the intestine.

How to Use: Take 1 capsule with or before meals containing dairy products. One capsule helps to digest the equivalent of a cup of milk.
