Karuna DuoZyme is formulated to support basic digestion process of proteins, carbohydrates and fats. As we age digestive enzymes become more important and we see this in blood tests as reduced blood proteins and protein imbalances. Proper digestion requires both a gastric phase supplying hydrochloric acid and pepsin, and an alkaline duodenal phase supplying protease, amylase, and lipase enzymes. DuoZyme provides all of these factors in a single, convenient, high potency capsule delivery system.
