The trypsin found in pancreatin works to hydrolyze proteins to oligopetides, amylsas hydrolizes starches to oligosaccharides and the disaccharide maltose, and lipase hydrolyzes triglycerides to fatty acids and glycerols. What does this mean? Pancreatin is an effective enzyme supplement for replacing missing pancreatic enzymes used in a number of essential body processes. Pancreatin enzymes are primarily helpful in digestion of foods and routine cancer eradication.
