Plant enzymes have been shown to work synergistically with Bioperine® extract. • Phospholipids aid in the uptake and transport of certain nutrients in the body. • Phytase enzymes break down the "anti-nutrient" compound phytate found in whole grains that can inhibit nutrient uptake through potential nutrient binding.
