Doctor's Best Digestive Enzymes, 90 Veggie Capsules

Doctor's Best Digestive Enzymes combines amylase, protease, lipase, lactase and other enzymes in a vegetarian capsule for use with meals. The formula is designed to assist the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Each bottle contains 90 one-capsule servings.

A multi-enzyme blend for meals

Each capsule contains approximately 450 mg of digestive enzyme blend. The formula includes amylase, Protease SP Plus, glucoamylase, dipeptidyl-peptidase IV, beta-glucanase, cellulase, alpha-galactosidase, bromelain, lipase, lactase, papain, xylanase, phytase, invertase and hemicellulase. The Supplement Facts panel also lists Bacillus subtilis at 1 billion CFU per serving. No Daily Values have been established for these ingredients.

Understanding the enzyme activity amounts

The label reports enzyme activity as well as the blend's approximate weight. Examples per capsule include amylase at 20,000 DU, Protease SP Plus at 95,000 HUT, lipase at 3,000 FIP and lactase at 1,000 ALU. These different activity units are specific to the enzymes being measured, rather than milligram amounts to add together. Compare the individual enzyme activities when reviewing another blend, not just its total weight.

Vegetarian capsule and other ingredients

Other ingredients are hypromellose (vegetarian capsule) and microcrystalline cellulose. The manufacturer identifies this formula as non-GMO and vegetarian. Review the current package ingredient list when choosing a supplement for your dietary preferences.

Suggested adult use and formula comparison

Take one capsule with each meal, or as recommended by a nutritionally informed physician. Store in a cool, dry place and follow the directions on your current package. The 90 servings refer to individual capsules, not necessarily a 90-day supply when used with multiple meals daily.

This multi-enzyme blend differs from Doctor's Best PepZin GI Zinc-L-Carnosine Complex, which combines a mineral with L-carnosine rather than digestive enzymes. Browse the Doctor's Best supplement collection to compare formulas and their individual directions.
