Description
- Nature's Way Gluten Defense helps digest wheat and dairy*‡
Why are gluten and casein a concern?
- Because some individuals experience digestive discomfort when they eat foods with these proteins - even when they try to avoid obvious sources:
- For some, gluten and casein can be the cause of occasional gas, bloating, and indigestion. However, the right digestive enzymes can make a difference when trying to support a gluten free and casein free lifestyle.*
Why take Gluten Defense™?
- Gluten Defense is specifically formulated to defend against gluten*:
- Gluten and casein are found where you'd never expect them - salad dressings, cold cuts - even toothpaste! Gluten Defense features DPP IV (dipeptidyl peptidase) activity, from a protease enzyme specific to digestion of gluten and casein.*
- Gluten Defense also includes a complete range of digestive enzymes*
- Competing products only tackle gluten - Gluten Defense helps you digest other proteins, fats and carbohydrates as well.*
DIRECTIONS
Take 2 capsules with each meal or as recommended by a healthcare professional.
