Product insights

  • Multi Enzyme provides a comprehensive blend of Betaine Hydrochloride (HCl), pepsin, and pancreatin to support optimal digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats.
  • Betaine HCl enhances gastric acidity, which is crucial for activating pepsin and facilitating the absorption of essential nutrients like vitamin B12, iron, and calcium.
  • The inclusion of porcine-derived pancreatin, a source of amylase, lipase, and protease, aids in breaking down complex carbohydrates, fats, and proteins, respectively, in the small intestine.
  • Unlike some enzyme supplements, Thorne's Multi Enzyme uses undiluted pepsin and pancreatin, avoiding lactose as a diluent, which can be problematic for lactose-sensitive individuals.

The research

2 cited studies
1.
Hydrochloric Acid and Nutrient Absorption

Studies indicate that adequate gastric acid, facilitated by Betaine HCl, is essential for the proper absorption of several micronutrients, including iron, calcium, and vitamin B12.

2.
Pancreatic Enzyme Supplementation

Research suggests that supplemental pancreatic enzymes, such as amylase, lipase, and protease, can improve digestion and nutrient assimilation, particularly in individuals with pancreatic insufficiency.
