Each capsule contains a 4× concentrate of pancreatic enzymes, delivering 1,300 mg activity of lipase, protease, and amylase to support the pancreatic production of digestive enzymes.
Pancreatin is a combination of digestive enzymes normally produced by the pancreas and are important in the digestion of fats, proteins, and sugars.
Pancreatin is used to replace digestive enzymes when the pancreas does not produce enough on its own. Certain medical conditions can cause this lack of enzymes.
New Roots Herbal’s Pancreatin are GPS™ enteric-coated for protection from harsh stomach acid.

Have only been taking this for the past 4 weeks. For the past 10 years been using digestive enzymes from a variety of brands. Some did work better than others, but over time it seemed like they slowly lost efficacy. Had my local store order me the product after reading about it - they did not carry this specific product until I asked for it. BUT… the pancreatin seems to work at least 50 - 60% better than any plant based digestive enzymes. The reduction of painful bloating has been a real blessing. Having suffered a pancreatitis attack years ago, being told that my pancreas is all but dead, this product has been most helpful and helping me enjoy food again. Just have to be careful with excess fats, especially cheeses.
