Digestive enzymes are essential to the body's absorption and full use of food. The capacity of the body to make enzymes diminish with age, and therefore the efficiency of digestion declines. NOW® Papaya Enzyme Lozenges have a refreshing taste and support digestion when taken after meals. The 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.
