Blackmores Digestive Aid 60 Capsules July 2024
Blackmores Digestive Aid provides a blend of enzymes and herbs used in traditional Western herbal medicine to support healthy digestion.
Blackmores Digestive Aid offers dual action* digestion support because it contains enzymes for the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats, proteins, lactose and plant fibres and herbs traditionally used in western herbal medicine for symptomatic relief of dyspepsia/indigestion.
Microbially derived enzymes possess activity at different pH levels. This enables Digestive Aid to be more consistently active and functional for a longer distance as it is transported through the digestive tract.
*Dual Action formula contains:
- Two herbs traditionally used in Western herbal medicine to relieve digestive complaints such as bloating, indigestion and feelings of fullness.
- Digestive enzymes support the digestion including some “problem foods” – dairy, protein, carbohydrates and fats.
Blackmores Digestive Aid is suitable for vegetarians.
