Lipase and the Alpha-Gal Friendly Diet

Lipase is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the digestion of dietary fats. It is commonly sourced from the stomachs and tongue glands of animals, such as pigs and calves, and used in the food industry to enhance the flavor and texture of products like cheese and baked goods. The enzyme helps in breaking down triglycerides into fatty acids and glycerol, which are easier for the body to absorb.
