These proteins are high in the amino acids proline and glutamine, which our body's natural digestive enzymes don't recognize as easily as other proteins.† Even if you follow a gluten-free diet, cross-contamination is common when eating out, as most restaurant kitchens don't separate gluten-containing foods. Gluten Guardian is formulated to provide targeted enzyme support for occasional gluten exposure.† Important: This product is not intended to treat coeliac disease or allow those with coeliac disease to consume gluten. If you have coeliac disease, continue following a strict gluten-free diet as advised by your healthcare professional. Key Enzyme Technology Peptidase DPP-IV — The Gluten-Targeting Enzyme Specialised Gluten Protein Breakdown† Peptidase DPP-IV is specifically formulated to target gluten protein structures May help break down the proline-rich sequences found in gluten peptides† Works synergistically with other proteases for comprehensive protein digestion† Most standard digestive enzymes don't contain this specialised enzyme Formulated to support digestion of difficult-to-break-down gluten proteins† May help support digestive comfort after gluten-containing meals† Complete Enzyme Formula 6-Enzyme Digestive Support Blend† Peptidase DPP-IV Gluten Support The key gluten-targeting enzyme specifically formulated to support breakdown of gluten protein structures.† Protease Blend Protein Digestion Multiple protease enzymes (neutral bacterial, alkaline, acid-stable) working across different pH levels for comprehensive protein breakdown.† Amylase Starch Breakdown May help support the breakdown of complex carbohydrates and starches into simpler sugars.† Bacterial Amylase Carb Support Additional amylase enzyme for enhanced carbohydrate digestion support from high-carb meals.† Lactase Dairy Support May help support the digestion of lactose (milk sugar) for those with lactose sensitivity.† Glucoamylase Sugar Breakdown May help support the breakdown of sugars and complex carbohydrates into glucose.† Enhanced Delivery System AstraZyme™ for Improved Effectiveness Plant-Derived Bioavailability Support† Gluten Guardian features AstraZyme™, a proprietary blend of extracts from Panax ginseng and Astragalus membranaceus.
