American Health Super Papaya Enzyme Plus Chewable - 180 Tablets

American Health Super Papaya Enzyme Plus Chewable — 180 Tablets

American Health Super Papaya Enzyme Plus delivers a broad-spectrum digestive enzyme blend built around two of the most well-studied plant-derived proteolytic enzymes — papain (from papaya fruit) and bromelain (from pineapple stem, not fruit: the stem contains significantly higher enzyme concentrations than the fruit flesh). Papain is a cysteine protease with an unusually wide pH activity range: it cleaves peptide bonds across a pH range of approximately 3.5–8.0, remaining active throughout the stomach and upper intestine where pancreatic enzymes don't function optimally. This broad pH tolerance means papain supports digestion throughout the full GI transit rather than only at the alkaline pH of the small intestine. Bromelain provides complementary proteolytic action but also inhibits NF-κB signaling and prostaglandin synthesis — a secondary anti-inflammatory mechanism that explains why bromelain has clinical applications beyond digestion (joint and tissue inflammation). Both enzymes are stable in chewable tablet form and begin working in the mouth, where initial food breakdown starts digestion before the stomach. Pancreatin and amylase round out the formula for fat and carbohydrate coverage. Vegetarian and gluten-free. 180 chewable tablets. No artificial colors, flavors, or preservatives.

Key Enzymes & Benefits

• Papain (Cysteine Protease, pH 3.5–8.0): Cleaves proteins across a wide pH range — active in both the acidic stomach and the alkaline small intestine; more complete protein digestion than pancreatic enzymes alone
• Bromelain (Pineapple Stem Concentrate): Higher enzyme concentration than pineapple fruit; proteolytic activity plus NF-κB inhibition and prostaglandin suppression — anti-inflammatory effects beyond digestion
• Chewable / Pre-Gastric Activation: Dissolves and begins working in the mouth — initiates protein breakdown in saliva before stomach acid; maximum digestion window
• Pancreatin + Amylase: Broad macronutrient coverage for fats, starches, and complex carbohydrates alongside the plant-based proteolytic enzymes
• Gentle & Non-Stimulant: No urgency, cramping, or laxative effects — enzyme support, not a stimulant
• 180 Chewable Tablets | Vegetarian & Gluten-Free | No Artificial Additives | From American Health
