• Delayed-release pancreatic enzyme formulation
• Used to decrease bloating after high-calorie, high-fat meals
• Promotes digestion
• Provides a blend of digestive enzymes such as protease, amylase, lipase, chymotrypsin, and trypsin

Pancreatin is a digestive aid formula used to reduce bloating after high-calorie, high-fat meals. It provides a combination of pancreatic enzymes, including lipase, amylase, and protease, which break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, respectively. There is also chymotrypsin and trypsin in pancreatic secretions, which also contribute to protein digestion. Adequate pancreatic enzyme activity is essential for proper digestion and assimilation of nutrients, including the assimilation of fat-soluble vitamins. Pancreatin contains enzymes that act like those normally secreted by the pancreas and that aid in nutrient digestion. Pancreatic enzyme supplementation has been shown to significantly reduce postprandial complaints related to high-calorie, high-fat meals such as bloating, gas, and fullness. Since pancreatic enzymes are sensitive to low pH, Pancreatin is specially formulated in delayed-release capsules that resist gastric acid to target release in the duodenum and allow for optimal enzyme activity.
