Science & Research:

Gluten/Dairy Digest contains a blend of digestive enzymes targeting gluten and dairy digestion. It provides a blend of proteases specially formulated to help break down gluten peptide fragments in normal digestive systems.1 Studies suggest that it may also promote a healthy cytokine balance to support G.I. comfort and function.2 Additionally, this formula provides a unique mixture of protease enzymes and lactase to assist digestion of multiple constituents of milk and dairy products. Protease enzymes targeting casein and beta-lactoglobulin proteins support dairy protein digestion. Casein is the predominant protein in milk and cheese, while beta-lactoglobulin occurs primarily in the whey fraction of milk. Beta-lactoglobulin is an acid-stable protein and therefore may not be broken down by pepsin and pancreatin.3 Lactase breaks down the milk sugar lactose, helping to relieve occasional bloating or gas that some people can experience from dairy consumption.4 If you are on a controlled diet and/or under the care of a health professional for dairy and/or gluten digestion, continue to follow those recommendations. This product is not intended to substitute for the recommendations of a health professional.
