About Amylase
Starch-digesting enzyme. Clinical evidence is limited to multi-enzyme blend RCTs (DigeZyme, Elevase) — individual contribution cannot be isolated. Well-established biochemically but lacks standalone human RCTs.
What Amylase supports
- Supports starch and carbohydrate digestion
How much Amylase to take
The RDA prevents deficiency. The effective range is what clinical trials used to actually move the outcome.
Effective
10000–24000
du
10,000-24,000 DU per serving for digestive support. DigeZyme RCT used ~3,600 DU/day as part of a multi-enzyme blend.
Clinical evidence
Limited clinical evidence. No standalone human clinical trials; only studied as part of multi-enzyme blend products
