Super Orti Vite is a multi-vitamin/mineral supplement that provides bromelain and papain, plant-based enzymes from pineapple and papaya respectively.¹ Supplementation with these digestive enzymes can aid in the breakdown of fats, carbohydrates and proteins.¹ Bromelain is effective at a wide pH range, and remains active in both the stomach and small intestine.¹ It has an especially strong ability to break down protein, and functions effectively during deficiencies in pepsin and/or trypsin.1 Vitamin D promotes calcium and phosphorus absorption in the intestine and regulates their levels in the blood and kidney for normal bone mineralization.² Vitamin A helps stimulate the development of immune cells and is necessary for the production of rhodopsin, a pigment involved in sensing light.^3,4 It also provides vitamins C and E, the most important antioxidants in aqueous and lipid compartments of the body.⁵ Selenium is also involved in the antioxidant defence system, as it is required for the production of proteins and enzymes that prevent free radical damage to DNA.⁶ Super Orti Vite provides support for good health with its comprehensive vitamin and mineral formula, plus the benefit of added digestive enzymes.
