Used to support digestion in cases of enzyme insufficiency, bloating, gas, or general digestive discomfort. May be recommended for individuals with pancreatic insufficiency, age-related digestive decline, or those with difficulty digesting complex meals.

Amylase catalyzes the breakdown of starches and complex carbohydrates into simple sugars, while papain acts as a proteolytic enzyme that helps digest proteins. Together, they assist the body's natural digestive processes.

Generally well-tolerated but may cause mild GI upset in some individuals. Should be taken with meals. Consult a healthcare provider before use if pregnant, breastfeeding, or taking other medications. Not intended to replace medical treatment for underlying digestive conditions.
