Frequently Asked Questions

What is DPP IV and why is it important for gluten digestion?

DPP IV (dipeptidyl peptidase IV) is a proteolytic enzyme with specific activity against proline-rich peptide bonds -- the type of bonds that are particularly abundant in gluten proteins and make gluten difficult to fully digest. BioCore DPP IV provides targeted enzymatic support for breaking down these bonds, complementing the body's own digestive enzymes.

Can Gluten Digest replace a gluten-free diet for coeliac disease?

No -- NOW Gluten Digest is a digestive enzyme supplement designed to support the digestion of gluten-containing foods. It is NOT a treatment for coeliac disease or non-coeliac gluten sensitivity, and it cannot replace a strict gluten-free diet for those with these conditions. Always consult your healthcare professional if you have a diagnosed gluten-related condition.

Who is Gluten Digest designed for?

Gluten Digest is designed for individuals who consume cereal grains and experience occasional digestive discomfort, or those who want additional digestive support when consuming gluten-containing foods. It is not intended for those with coeliac disease as their primary management strategy.

Is NOW Gluten Digest suitable for vegans?

Yes, NOW Gluten Digest is formulated in vegetarian capsules and is suitable for vegans and vegetarians. Its enzymes are derived from microbial fermentation sources. It is produced without common animal-derived ingredients under strict GMP quality standards.
