B.P.P. provides the hydrochloric acid and pancreatic enzymes whose insufficient secretion by the body can result in indigestion. Having consistently poor digestion can produce concerns, including nutrient malabsorption, digestive problems such as occasional gas, bloating, and diarrhea, and vitamin deficiencies. One common reason for having poor digestion can be insufficient secretion of hydrochloric acid and pancreatic enzymes due to numerous factors such as aging.
Individuals who are likely to be low in hydrochloric acid and pancreatic enzyme secretion, and have malabsorption of protein, carbohydrates, and fats, should consider B.P.P. Thorne's B.P.P. offers pepsin that is undiluted and lactose-free. B.P.P. also provides undiluted pancreatin, which is essential to optimal digestion and the absorption of numerous nutrients, especially fats.
