Highlights
- Promotes healthy digestion of protein and fermentable carbohydrates (FODMAPs)
- Helps reduce gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort after eating vegetables, beans, and whole grains
- Ideal for vegetarian, vegan, and raw food diets
- Supports natural inner intestinal balance and regularity
Natural Factors Vegetarian MacroGest is a unique intensive strength plant enzyme formula specially designed to support the breakdown of hard-to-digest foods such as beans, grains, and vegetables; helping to reduce gas and bloating. Vegan friendly and non-GMO, this product provides key enzymes to help digest foods, thus supporting nutrient absorption and colon health.
Recommended Use: Digestive enzymes to help digest proteins. Helps reduce gas production/flatulence following a meal rich in fermentable carbohydrates (such as vegetables, pulses/legumes/beans, and whole grains). Helps prevent gastrointestinal intolerance of oligosaccharides/fermentable carbohydrates.
Recommended Adult Dose: 1 capsule daily with food or as directed by a health care practitioner. For prolonged use, consult a health care practitioner.
Cautions: Consult a health care practitioner prior to use if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have diabetes or gastrointestinal lesions/ulcers, if you are taking anticoagulants/blood thinners, anti-inflammatories, or antibiotics, if you are having surgery, or if you are allergic to latex or fruits (such as avocado, banana, chestnut, passion fruit, fig, melon, mango, kiwi, pineapple, peach, and tomato). Consult a health care practitioner if symptoms persist or worsen. Hypersensitivity/allergy, headaches, heartburn, bloating, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea have been known to occur, in which case discontinue use and consult a health care practitioner. Keep out of the reach of children
Allergen Statement: Contains no artificial colours, preservatives, or sweeteners; no dairy, sugar, wheat, gluten, yeast, soy, egg, fish, shellfish, animal products, tree nuts, or GMOs. Suitable for vegetarians/vegans.
