Summary

In this study, a lipase -sourced from a nonpyrogenic yeast, Candida rugosa, will be investigated to establish optimal TG levels in adults in a 12-week supplementation period. The investigational product provides a lipase formulation that is stable and active in acidic and neutral pH environments, while also fully digesting TGs into free fatty acids and glycerol which is beyond the scope of pancreatic lipase (Schuler et al. 2012). This will be a novel study investigating the effects of C. rugosa lipase on adults with slightly elevated TG levels.
