Protease
Protease supplements belong to the broader family of digestive enzyme products and focus specifically on the breakdown of proteins from food. They are commonly chosen by individuals who want to support their normal digestive comfort, particularly those with protein-rich diets or who simply want to complement their body’s natural enzyme activity at mealtimes.
When browsing protease products, look for clearly labelled enzyme activity units (such as HUT or FCC units), the source of the enzyme (fungal, plant or animal-derived), and any additional digestive enzyme blends included in the formulation. As with all food supplements, protease products are intended to complement a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle — they are not a substitute for a nutritious diet nor intended to treat or cure any condition.
