Uses & Benefits
Feature Summary
Natural Factors Keto Paleo MacroGest is an intensive-strength, full-spectrum enzyme formula specially designed to support the digestion of protein-rich and high-fat foods such as eggs, dairy, and meat. Ideal for anyone eating a ketogenic or paleo diet, this unique formula provides key enzymes to help break down proteins and fats, as well as starches, for better nutrient absorption.
Keto Paleo MacroGest contains a meaningful dose of pancreatic enzymes, alongside alpha-amylase to break down starches, and protease and lipase to digest proteins and fats. A high-activity enzyme blend is also included, featuring fungal protease, papain, bromelain, and serratiopeptidase in a delayed-release capsule. This allows the delicate enzymes to pass through the acidic stomach environment intact so that they can be released and absorbed in the small intestines.
By enhancing the digestion of animal proteins, Keto Paleo MacroGest supports a normal inflammatory response and may help keep pathogenic microorganisms in check, which can reduce food sensitivities. Keto Paleo MacroGest from Natural Factors helps decrease bloating after high-caloric meals, is non-GMO, gluten free, and soy free, and offers intensive-strength support for digestion of protein-rich and high-fat foods.
