The pancreas secretes digestive enzymes that catalyze the breakdown of starches (carbohydrates), fats, and proteins for absorption in the small intestine. These enzymes include amylase, lipase, and protease. Pancreatic amylase is responsible for the digestion of starch into maltose and maltotriose, which are further hydrolyzed into glucose by the disaccharidases of the mucosal cells. Dietary triglycerides are digested by action of lipases, which hydrolyze triglycerides into free fatty acids and monoglycerides. In addition, bile is secreted from the gallbladder to assist in emulsification and absorption of fats.
Protein digestive enzymes, pancreatic proteases and pepsin from the stomach, break down peptides to form oligopeptides and free amino acids. Enzymatic breakdown of macromolecules is complemented with betaine. Betaine is a natural substance found in beets, spinach, and other food sources. Betaine HCl is a source of hydrochloric acid that may aid in digestion by lowering gastric pH and enhance intestinal function by increasing the activities of amylase, lipase, and protease. This combination of ingredients aids in proper digestive function and remains functional over a wide range of pH levels for optimal activity.
