Joint, Muscle & Tissue Health An extra-strength systemic enzyme blend formulated to help support healthy joint, muscle and tissue function.* Why Take Ultimate Metabolic Formula The Ultimate Metabolic Formula is a clinically-proven blend of proteolytic enzymes, herbs, vitamins and minerals for powerful joint, muscle and tissue support.* This specially formulated enzyme blend supports: Healthy Joint Function* Sports Recovery* Fibrin Metabolism* Muscle, Joint and Tissue Health* Healthy Antioxidant Levels* Immune Health* Healthy Blood Circulation* What’s Inside Ultimate Metabolic FormulaIn addition to papain and bromelain, Ultimate Metabolic Formula features acid-resistant serrapeptase (Peptizyme SP® EN), a systemic enzyme known for its capacity to support normal fibrin levels and promote healthy circulation.* Research and clinical studies consistently show serrapeptase can help break down dead cells produced as a result of the inflammatory process. By breaking down cellular debris, serrapeptase promotes circulation, allowing vital nutrients and building blocks to nourish new cells.* In addition to serrapeptase and other enzymes, Ultimate Metabolic Formula also contains the potent herbs boswellia and turmeric, as well as vitamin C, amla, rutin and grape seed extract for antioxidant support.* How MAAC Acid-Resistant Polymer Makes Ultimate Metabolic Formula Uniquely Effective Your stomach is naturally acidic to help digest food. But not every supplement can tolerate that acidity. Some enzymes, like serrapeptase, are powerful but delicate. They need a special delivery system that helps protect them from stomach acid. The cutting-edge, phthalate-free, methyacrylic acid copolymer (MAAC) applied to the Peptizyme SP® EN in Ultimate Metabolic Formula increases potency by allowing more enzyme activity to pass through the stomach, delivering it into the small intestine, where it is most needed. When evaluated by an independent third-party laboratory, the MAAC-containing Peptizyme SP® EN used in Ultimate Metabolic Formula was found to have enzyme activity significantly greater than regular serrapeptase after passing through the acidic conditions of the stomach, allowing for much greater efficacy. MAAC is a food-grade compound that has been in use as an enteric coating in the pharmaceutical industry for over 50 years with no reported side effects. In fact, the European Food Safety Authority – an organization that conducted studies which led to the ban of six types of phthalates in personal care products in Europe in 2004 – has deemed MAAC safe for use as a coating agent in food supplements. As a science-first company, AST Enzymes uses acid-resistant Peptizyme SP® EN because it delivers the best enzymes in their best form.
