Frequently asked questions
What is pepsin and why is it in this formula?
Pepsin is a powerful protein breakdown enzyme that works in the stomach when acid levels are proper. This formula uses pork-based pepsin, which may be approximately 40% stronger than beef pepsin.
What does intrinsic factor do?
Intrinsic factor is needed to protect vitamin B12 and allow it to be absorbed in the lower part of the small intestine. It's normally part of stomach juices but can become depleted in low acid situations, potentially causing B12 malabsorption.
Why is ginger included in this formula?
Organic ginger powder is traditionally known to support the stomach. Recent research suggests it helps the lower stomach produce stronger peristalsis waves, which support healthy digestive motility.
Is this product free from common allergens?
Yes, this formula contains zero major allergens, is gluten-free, non-GMO, and contains no fillers, flow agents, or unnecessary ingredients.
