Product Overview
Digestive Aid
As we age, hydrochloric acid and digestive enzyme secretion may both decline. Add to that the many additional factors—poor eating habits, inadequate chewing, “eating on the run,” and over-consumption of alcohol—that put stress on the digestive process. Essential Enzyme™ is a Bio-Aligned Formula® that contains a wide array of enzymes that break down proteins, fats, milk sugar, fiber, and carbohydrates in a wide pH range. It aids the body’s natural digestive process, helping to maximize the body’s utilization of the nutrients in the diet while supporting digestive comfort. Essential Enzymes™ is now available in convenient blister packs that can be used for meals outside the home.*
