Porcine Pancreas Powder

Waitaki Biosciences freeze dried porcine pancreas powder is a proprietary nutritional ingredient, specially developed to support effective digestion and absorption of vital nutrients.

Although some digestion begins in the mouth with enzymes secreted by the salivary glands, and continues in the stomach, by far the most important part of the digestive process occurs with the powerful enzymes secreted by the pancreas into the small intestine. These enzymes target the breakdown of protein, fat and carbohydrate in food and ensure that these nutrients, as well as fat soluble vitamins, are made available for use by the body.

The Pancreas is also the organ in the body that produces the hormone insulin, which is critical to the proper regulation of blood sugar levels.

Waitaki’s highly effective porcine pancreas powder can provide an external source of critical digestive enzymes in situations when the pancreas may not be performing well or is in need of a rest.

Functionality

Digestive health support in situations where there may be reduced secretion of pancreatic digestive enzymes or in conditions of pancreatic stress.

Applications

Waitaki’s freeze dried porcine powder is suitable for encapsulation and tableting.

Manufacture

Waitaki’s porcine pancreas powder is manufactured from 100% Australian sourced porcine pancreas.  Our raw material supplier is carefully selected and fully export licensed to supply product of the highest human food grade quality.

Carefully developed manufacturing processes ensure a consistent level of active protease enzymes in every batch and gentle freeze drying techniques ensure as much of the biological activity as possible is retained in the finished dried product.
