Premium Bioactive Ingredients
How are we different?
Our papain is obtained from the milky sap of the unripe fruit of the papaya plant (Carica papaya) and has an enzyme activity of at least 4000 FIP U (Fédération Internationale Pharmaceutique Unit) per gram. The enzyme is extracted exclusively with water, without the use of other solvents. The papaya milk juice undergoes several filtration steps and is then spray-dried. To ensure that the papain can be dosed, 25-35% microcrystalline cellulose is added as a carrier and added to the dried enzyme.
We use patented, gastric acid-resistant HPMC capsules (DRcaps®) as capsule shells.
