Digestive Enzymes

Whether you have IBS or not, a proteolytic digestive enzyme that helps improve protein breakdown and bioavailability for muscle protein synthesis just makes sense. OPTI-ZIOME P3 HYDROLYZER™ is a blend of proteases and peptidases (31,875 HUT activity) that has been specifically designed for use with pea protein powder. Getting technical, they include Fungal Protease A2 obtained from Aspergillus oryzae [(CAS No. 9074-07-1], Fungal Protease A obtained from A. oryzae (CAS No. 9025-49-4), and Protease AM obtained from A. melleus (CAS No. 9074-07-1). Their research, recently published in the Journal of Nutrition, suggests that it increases amino acid bioavailability and circulating amino acids by 36% compared with the placebo within 2 hours, releasing 225% more BCAAs and 295% more Leucine compared to their top two competitors. The result is that your body is better able to absorb and utilize protein for building and repairing muscle.
