Description
Solgar Digestive Enzymes is a food supplement providing a blend of ox bile, pancreatin, betaine hydrochloride, plant and microbial-derived enzymes (amylase and papain) and pepsin, in tablets taken with meals. Taking one tablet with each main meal, up to three times a day, makes it straightforward to fit around regular meal times.
Key Features
- Ox bile and pancreatin blend: Combines ox bile and pancreatin (providing protease, amylase and lipase enzyme activity) with betaine hydrochloride, plant and microbial-derived amylase and papain, and pepsin, in a single tablet.
- Take with every main meal: One tablet with each main meal, up to three tablets a day, so dosing follows meal patterns rather than a fixed daily schedule.
- Swallow or chew: The tablets can be swallowed whole or chewed, whichever is more convenient.
- Free from common allergens: Free from gluten, wheat, soya, yeast, sweeteners, artificial flavours and colours.
Is this supplement suitable for vegetarians or vegans?
No. The ox bile, pancreatin and pepsin in this product are all animal-derived, so it is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.
What is ox bile and why is it in this formula?
Ox bile is a bile extract derived from cattle. Alongside pancreatin, it forms part of this product's animal-derived enzyme blend, which distinguishes it from plant-only digestive enzyme supplements.
Does this product contain any allergens?
Yes. It contains milk, from the pepsin extract. It is free from gluten, wheat, soya and yeast.
Can I take this if I'm pregnant, breastfeeding or taking medication?
The manufacturer advises consulting a healthcare practitioner before taking this product if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, taking any medication, or have a medical condition.
