This unique vegetarian formula works much like pancreatic enzymes and helps with protein, carbohydrate and fat digestion. Enzymes are molecules that speed up chemical reactions. This is extremely important in a vast number of body functions and is absolutely essential for healthy, comfortable digestion of food. The potency and strength of Multi Enzyme is given by stating the actual level of enzyme activity rather than the mg amount of the enzyme source, thereby insuring the highest potency, quality control and effectiveness.
