Digestive enzymes are essential to the body's absorption and full use of food.* The capacity of the body to make enzymes diminishes with age, and therefore the efficiency of digestion declines.* NOW® Papaya Enzyme Lozenges have a refreshing taste and support digestion when taken after meals.* Our lozenges are made with whole, unripe, spray dried papaya powder, and have 40 mg of papaya per lozenge. In addition, protease, lipase and cellulase have been included for a full spectrum of enzymatic activity. This tablet is also useful as a mint breath freshener.*
