Delayed-release pancreatic enzyme formulation Helps reduce bloating after high-calorie, high-fat meals Aids digestion Provides a blend of digestive enzymes such as protease, amylase, lipase, chymotrypsin, and trypsin Pancreatin is a digestive aid formula that helps reduce bloating after high-calorie, high-fat meals. It provides a combination of pancreatic enzymes, including lipase, amylase, and protease, which break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, respectively. There are also chymotrypsin and trypsin in pancreatic secretions, which also aid in protein digestion. Proper pancreatic enzyme activity is essential for proper digestion and nutrient absorption, including the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Pancreatin contains enzymes that act like those normally secreted by the pancreas and aid in the digestion of nutrients. Pancreatic enzyme supplementation has been shown to significantly reduce postprandial complaints associated with high-calorie, high-fat meals, such as bloating, gas, and fullness. Because pancreatic enzymes are sensitive to low pH, Pancreatin is specially formulated in delayed-release capsules that are resistant to stomach acid to target release to the duodenum and allow for optimal enzyme activity.
