GD relief

Digestive Enzyme to Aid Protein Digestion Fungal and bacterial proteases hydrolyze difficult-to-digest proline-containing peptides, such as gluten and casein. Serratiopeptidase has proteolytic and anti-inflammatory activity. Lipase and lactase aid in the digestion of milk fats and sugars, respectively. Papain, bromelain, and plant-derived fungal digestive enzymes support broad-spectrum carbohydrate digestion. The high-potency formulation allows for easy dosing, with 375 mg of enzyme blend in each vegetarian capsule. Perfect for vegetarians and vegans. GD Relief is a patented, broad-spectrum, high-potency enzyme blend that provides fungal, bacterial, and plant enzymes to aid in the digestion of all macronutrients. It also provides specific support for the digestion of gluten and dairy products.

Aspergillus oryzae extracts are rich in prolyl endopeptidases and dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV). DPP-IV is a multifunctional serine protease that targets proline-containing peptides, such as those found in gliadin and casein, two proteins resistant to proteolysis. The protease activity of Aspergillus oryzae targets the proline-rich 33-mer of gliadin, perhaps the most immunotoxic peptide derived from gliadin. The antigenic and immunomodulatory proline-rich proteins in gluten are thought to trigger an inflammatory response in people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity. This reaction is often due to inadvertent exposure to gluten, even in people following a gluten-free diet. Aspergillus oryzae protease supplementation has also been associated with increased abundance of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus in experimental models, suggesting a potential probiotic effect.

GD Relief provides serratiopeptidase, a proteolytic enzyme with potent anti-inflammatory and fibrinolytic properties. This enzyme has been shown to attenuate LPS-induced inflammation, with benefits in clinical trials for acute and chronic ear, nose, and throat disorders.
