Natural enzyme that aids digestion and helps prevent gas and bloating.* What is alpha-galactosidase? Alpha-galactosidase is a natural enzyme derived from Aspergillus niger. Taken before a meal, it can help prevent gas and bloating before it happens.* How does alpha-galactosidase support health? It works naturally with the body's digestive system, assisting in the breakdown of complex carbohydrates known for creating gas in the digestive system.* Complex carbohydrates are sugars found in vegetables, grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, beans, cereals and whole-grain products. Complex Carbohydrate Intolerance (CCI) is caused by a deficiency of alpha-galactosidase, an intestinal enzyme needed for complete digestion of complex carbohydrates. CCI often results in gas, cramping, flatulence and bloating – complications that can be uncomfortable and often embarrassing. Why choose Vitacost Gas Enzyme Alpha-galactosidase?
