Vitakruid DPP-IV Ultimate BioCore Optimum Complete EnzymesNo less than three protein-splitting enzyme forms
DPP-IV stands for dipeptidyl peptidase IV, an enzyme that naturally occurs in our small intestine. DPP-IV Ultimate is a collection of three high-quality protein-splitting (protease) enzyme forms. Normally, the body's own enzyme production provides enough enzymes to digest the food we eat. However, factors such as age, stress, medications, and abnormalities in the digestive system can disrupt enzyme production. DPP-IV can then be a valuable addition to the diet!
Superior absorbability through patented Biocore® Optimum Complete
In this formula, Vitakruid uses the patented BioCore® Optimum Complete. This high-quality DPP-IV enzyme has superior bioavailability compared to regular DPP-IV enzyme combinations. The renowned BioCore® uses a mix of acidic, neutral, and alkaline enzymes for their extract. Moreover, the star among enzymes (pH 4.7) is the only one of its kind that survives the journey through the acidic stomach. This allows the nutrient to deliver activity where it is needed!
BioCore® produced by renowned Deerland Probiotics & Enzymes
The leading American Deerland Probiotics & Enzymes is the producer of BioCore® Optimum Complete. The company has specialized for years in the development of science-backed enzyme combinations. To ensure the best possible combinations, the manufacturer develops their products exclusively in close collaboration with scientists, industry organizations, and leading universities. As a result, each component of the DPP-IV formula is carefully controlled and standardized based on clinical studies. Repeatedly conducted in vitro laboratory methods also show that the enzyme combination in BioCore® Optimum Complete has a demonstrably high activity. Deerland can rightfully call itself an expert in the field of DPP-IV enzyme development!
Best enzyme activity on today's market
When selecting a good enzyme supplement, you should not necessarily focus on the dosage of the different enzymes in the product, but on the so-called enzyme activity of the present enzymes. DPP-IV Ultimate provides a unique mix of proteolytic enzymes per capsule, derived from fungal fermentation of Asperigillus oryzae and Aspergillus melleus, with a standardized enzyme activity per 100 mg. These are indicated by the abbreviations HUT, SAPU, and SU. The units express the rate at which the respective enzyme converts substrates. The higher the enzymatic activity, the more effectively the enzyme can perform its work in our body. Moreover, the presence of different forms of proteases leads to a significantly higher activity than a traditional DPP-IV preparation with only one form of protease!
Developed in close collaboration with TNO
Deerland developed the high-quality DPP-IV enzyme in close collaboration with the Netherlands Organization for Applied Scientific Research (TNO). In 2004, TNO, together with the American National Enzyme Company, investigated the benefits of supplementing digestive enzymes, including proteases. They developed the patented TNO gastoIntestinal Model (TIM) for this purpose. This model accurately simulates the conditions of the stomach and small intestine. This method allows for samples to be taken during various testing phases, enabling quantitative results regarding the activity of enzyme supplementation to be measured for the first time.
