BioCare Digestaid (Digestive Enzyme Complex)

Carbozyme provides amylase, an enzyme that digests starch and carbohydrates in foods such as potatoes, rice, cereals, beans and all legumes. Amylase is normally produced by the salivary glands in the mouth, by the pancreas and by the small intestine. Its function is to breakdown carbohydrates, which are usually in the form of polysaccharides, to disaccharides and then to monosaccharides. Improper or incomplete digestion of carbohydrates may cause a variety of situations such as bloating, flatulence, low energy levels and improper digestion which reduces nutrient availability.
