Digezyme Enzyme Complex

DigeZyme is a proprietary blend of digestive enzymes, including amylase, protease, lipase, cellulase, and lactase. These enzymes are typically derived from microbial fermentation sources, such as Aspergillus species, and are then purified and blended. They are designed to aid the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.

Manufacturers add DigeZyme to food products, particularly protein powders and shakes, to support protein digestion and absorption. The enzymes are intended to help break down food components more efficiently, potentially reducing digestive discomfort for some consumers. It is also found in some supplements aimed at improving gut health.

DigeZyme is not listed as an authorised food additive in the Register of Food Additive Authorisations, suggesting it is used as a food ingredient rather than a regulated additive. Digestive enzymes are naturally produced by the body to break down food. Some individuals may experience mild digestive upset if they are sensitive to specific enzymes.
