    TermDefinition
    PapainAn enzyme derived from papaya that digests large protein molecules to smaller peptides and amino acids.
     
    PectinaseAn enzyme that digests the fiber (specifically pectins) found in carbohydrates. Pectins are typically found in fruits.
     
    PeptidaseAn enzyme that digests the smaller peptide chains (dipeptides and tripeptides) that are released from large protein molecules into free amino acids.
     
    pHysioProtease™A proprietary enzyme blend that digests proteins. This blend is clinically proven to be more active in the physiological conditions of the blood and tissues and therefore more effective for inflammatory conditions and supporting proper immune function.
     
    PhytaseAn enzyme that digests phytates, components of plants that bind minerals.
     
    PotassiumWorks with calcium to regulate neuromuscular activity; works with sodium to regulate water and acid-base balance; vital for regulation of heartbeat and blood pressure; functions in a variety of enzymatic activities for nutrient transport and carbohydrate synthesis.
     
    Protease BlendAn enzyme that digests proteins into smaller polypeptides and amino acids. When used systemically, may help to relieve symptoms associated with inflammation and support proper immune function.
