Features & Benefits

  • Chewable digestive enzymes to help digest proteins
  • Aids in food digestion by breaking down protein, starch, fat, and fibre
  • Source of antioxidants that help protect against cell damage caused by free radicals

Summary

Digestive enzymes are essential to the body's absorption and full use of food. The capacity of the body to make enzymes diminishes with age, and therefore the efficiency of digestion declines. NOW® Papaya Enzyme Lozenges have a refreshing taste and support digestion when taken after meals. Our tablets are made from whole, unripe, spray-dried Papaya powder, and contain 40 mg of Papaya per Lozenge. Bromelain has been extracted from pineapples to add further digestive help for protein and fats. Both papaya and pineapple also provide a source of naturally-occurring antioxidants that can be protective in the digestive tract and body. In addition, Protease, Lipase, and Cellulase have been included for a full spectrum of enzymatic activity to help digest protein, starch, fat, and fibre. This lozenge may also be useful as a breath freshener. NOW® natural and organic supplements provide an effective way to ensure individuals receive essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients for optimal health. Since 1968, NOW® has been committed to producing top-quality products that meet the highest standards, empowering people to lead healthier lives. Their promise is simple: what is on the label is exactly what is in the bottle.
