Amylase and the Low FODMAP Diet
Amylase is a type of enzyme that plays a crucial role in the digestive process by catalyzing the hydrolysis of starch into sugars. It is naturally found in human saliva and pancreatic fluid. For industrial and culinary use, amylase can be sourced from various origins, including plants like barley or fungi, as well as from animal sources such as pancreas extracts. The specific source of amylase in food products often determines its suitability for certain dietary restrictions, such as veganism.
