What does it do?

Hemicellulase is an enzyme that breaks down hemicellulose, a component of plant cell walls. It is included in digestive aids to promote the breakdown of food during the digestive process. It mainly helps alleviate symptoms of indigestion.

Hemicellulase helps digest complex polysaccharides in food, aiding in proper digestion. As a result, the digestion of food in the stomach becomes smoother, alleviating symptoms of indigestion.

Approved uses differ by product. Check each product's information for its actual use.

Good to know

Unlike other digestive enzymes, hemicellulase specifically breaks down hemicellulose, a plant-based polysaccharide. This distinguishes it from enzymes that break down proteins or fats.
