Pancreatin Select® helps support healthy digestion with superior quality, clinically researched ingredients. Newly updated in June 2015, the formula features quadruple-strength pancreatic digestive enzymes (as Pancreatin 4X) to assist in the breakdown of foods from all three macronutrient groups: proteins, fats and carbohydrates. Additional Lipase enzyme plus premium Ox Bile Extract (verified BSE-free) are added to help further enhance fat digestion. For synergistic support, Pancreatin Select® provides 150 mg of Betaine Hydrochloride (HCl) per capsule to help create a gastric pH favourable to healthy protein digestion, mineral absorption and vitamin B 12 metabolism. HCl also helps to inhibit the growth of pathogenic microbes such as H. pylori in gastric and intestinal environments. The bitter digestant herbs Artichoke and Gentian are included to help promote digestive comfort and reduce postprandial gas and bloating. Of the many factors that contribute to compromised digestive capacity, insufficient stomach acid (hypochlorhydria, achlorhydria) and diminished pancreatic enzyme production are two of the most common. Both achlorhydria and pancreatic insufficiency are associated not only with impaired digestion but with complications such as malnutrition and small intestinal bacterial overgrowth (SIBO). The ingredients in Pancreatin Select® have been carefully selected to help boost the body's natural ability to break down and metabolize food in the critical early stages of digestion. It may be taken near the beginning of a meal for best results.
