Compare every Protease product across UK retailers on Suppio, ranked by true value - price per active dose, not pack size. Prices refreshed daily.
We rank Protease by price per gram of active ingredient - not by pack size - so a bigger tub with a worse price per dose can't outrank a smaller one that's actually cheaper.
Protease is a type of enzyme, which is a protein that acts as a biological catalyst to speed up chemical reactions in the body. Specifically, it is designed to break down dietary proteins into amino acids, which are the smaller building blocks the body can actually absorb and use.
It is primarily used as a digestive aid to help the body process protein more efficiently. By breaking down complex protein chains, it can help reduce digestive discomfort and ensure the body gets the most nutritional value from protein-rich foods.
To create the supplement, companies typically grow specific microorganisms, such as fungi or bacteria, in large fermentation tanks. These organisms naturally produce the enzyme, which is then extracted, purified to remove unwanted materials, and dried into a stable powder for use in capsules or tablets.
This ingredient generally sits in a mid-range price bracket. This is because the fermentation and purification processes required to isolate the enzyme are more complex than simple vitamin extraction, but the widespread availability of the producing microorganisms keeps costs from becoming premium.
