Frequently Asked Questions
What is DigestRight®?
DigestRight® is a comprehensive plant-based enzyme supplement for children. Formulated by leading physicians in child neurological development, DigestRight® promotes optimal digestion of a full range of foods.† The enzymes in DigestRight® are acid-stable and can survive exposure to stomach acidity without the need for an enteric coating.†
Why is DPP IV activity important?
Dipeptidyl peptidase IV or DPP IV is an enzyme that is important to the digestion of gliadin peptides.† DPP IV is involved in the degradation of components such as gliadin, one of the main proteins found in gluten, and casein, a key milk protein, and in modulation of the immune response.† The addition of DPP IV may speed digestion of the components of hidden gluten or casein.†
At what age can DigestRight® be taken?
The Learner's Edge line of products was developed to meet the nutritional needs of school-aged children (five years of age or older).† While we know of no specific contraindications against the use of DigestRight® in younger children, the product has not been tested in this sub-set. Therefore, we urge parents interested in giving DigestRight® to younger children to discuss it with the child's physician prior to use.
Are any ingredients in DigestRight® derived from nuts?
No, none of the ingredients in DigestRight® are derived from nuts. By law, dietary supplement manufacturers must clearly list any and all ingredients obtained from peanuts and tree nuts, as well as the other Top 8 Allergens.
