SpikaZYM plus: Your Enzyme-Plant Complex for Digestion, Liver, and Noticeable Lightness
Your body performs amazing feats every day: It digests complex proteins with high proline content—like gluten from grains or certain viral protein structures, that are difficult to break down and challenge your digestion. At the same time, your liver is working at full speed: Western diet, stress, environmental influences—it has to filter and eliminate breakdown products daily. It is your central detoxification organ, often suffering silently.
SpikaZYM plus approaches digestion holistically: Highly active prolyl oligopeptidase breaks down complex proline peptides—not only in the gut but also systemically in vessels and tissues. At the same time, traditionally valued milk thistle fruit extract supports your liver in eliminating breakdown products. The special feature: The acid-resistant capsules protect the sensitive enzyme until it reaches the small intestine, where it unfolds its effect. Thus, enzyme and plant work as a team—for noticeable relief.
The enzyme breaks down, the plant accompanies. With 1,000,000 PPI enzyme activity, prolyl oligopeptidase breaks down even stubborn proline bonds. The milk thistle—300 mg of highly concentrated extract in a 10:1 ratio, equivalent to 3 g of pure plant power—strengthens your liver metabolism. Lecithin makes the valuable plant substances even more bioavailable for your body. The result: A synergy that supports your body from the gut to the liver.
SpikaZYM plus combines substantial enzyme power with highly concentrated plant effects—in a natural, vegan formula. For your balance. For your lightness. Made in Germany.
When SpikaZYM plus is particularly beneficial:
- With a protein-rich or gluten-containing diet
- If you often feel heavy or burdened after eating
- With increased stress from complex food proteins
- To support an overloaded liver
- In phases where your body deserves special attention
- If you appreciate vegan and ketogenic supplements
Why we developed SpikaZYM plus:
Many enzyme or milk thistle products rely on individual substances—without considering that your body needs holistic support. We developed SpikaZYM plus as a synergy complex: Enzyme power breaks down complex proteins, plant power relieves your liver. The result: An intelligent formula for noticeable balance and natural lightness.

When thinking of enzymes or milk thistle, people often focus on high quantities, but rarely on the intelligent combination of enzyme activity, plant quality, and targeted release that makes the difference. SpikaZYM plus combines highly active enzymes with traditional plant knowledge in enteric-coated capsules, so your body can optimally benefit from both.

How Enzymes and Plant Power Complement Each Other
Nature doesn’t know lone fighters, and neither does your body. Enzymes break down proteins, but the resulting breakdown products need to be expelled. Plants support your liver, but without enzymatic preparation, their task remains incomplete. Our enzyme-plant complexes follow this principle: They combine enzymes with their plant partners, complementing and enhancing each other. The enzyme breaks down, the plant aids in excretion. Only through interaction does holistic support arise. For your body, which deserves complete solutions.
How the Components in SpikaZYM plus Complement Each Other
SpikaZYM plus is more than the sum of its parts. Each component has its own task, but only in combination do they unleash their full power. Here you can see how the synergy team works:
- Prolyl Oligopeptidase: The Specialist
1,000,000 PPI per daily dose
Prolyl oligopeptidase is your specialist for complex challenges: It breaks down proteins containing the hard-to-digest amino acid proline, including resistant prolamines like gluten or other stubborn peptide structures from various sources. The special feature: This enzyme works in the universal pH range and is therefore not only active in the intestine but systemically throughout your entire body – in vessels, tissues, and everywhere proline peptides need to be broken down. With 1,000,000 PPI (Protease Picomole International) per daily portion, SpikaZYM plus delivers substantial enzyme activity. However, the enzyme’s task is fulfilled once it has broken down – the excretion of the breakdown products is handled by its plant partner. - Milk Thistle Fruit Extract 10:1: The Companion
300 mg per daily dose (equivalent to 3 g of plant)
Here comes the companion: Milk thistle (Silybum marianum) has been traditionally valued for centuries for supporting liver metabolism. And that’s exactly where it comes in: While the enzyme breaks down complex proteins, milk thistle supports your liver – the central detoxification organ – in excreting the resulting breakdown products. With a highly concentrated extract in a 10:1 ratio, SpikaZYM plus provides 300 mg of extract, equivalent to 3 g of dried milk thistle fruits. Especially under increased stress from Western diets, stress, or complex protein structures, your liver works at full speed. Milk thistle accompanies these natural processes and helps your liver stay balanced. Enzyme breaks down, plant expels – this is how holistic support is created. - Lecithin: The Activator
Lecithin is the silent activator in the team: As a natural emulsifier, it optimizes the absorption of fat-soluble plant compounds from milk thistle. This way, your body can better utilize the valuable ingredients and unleash their full power. Without lecithin, many plant compounds would remain unused – with lecithin, they become bioavailable. - The Acid-Resistant Capsule Shell: The Protector
The acid-resistant HPMC capsule shell (hydroxypropylmethylcellulose) protects the sensitive enzyme from aggressive stomach acid and releases it only in the small intestine – where it can work optimally. This way, the enzyme reaches its target unharmed and can unfold systemically in the body. The capsule is the invisible protector ensuring that all others can do their job.
This is synergy: Each component makes the other stronger. Enzyme breaks down. Plant accompanies. Lecithin activates. Capsule protects.

Product Background
Why the Combination of Prolyl Oligopeptidase and Milk Thistle is so Important for Your Well-being
Your body is confronted daily with complex proteins: gluten from grains, resistant peptide structures from various sources, proline-rich compounds from food. What many don’t know: the amino acid proline is one of the most difficult protein building blocks to break down. Your body has few enzymes of its own to efficiently break them down. The result: undigested peptides burden your digestion and challenge your metabolism.
The Problem: Modern Diet Overwhelms Digestion & Liver
Our modern diet contains more complex proteins than ever: highly bred grain varieties with increased gluten content, processed foods, protein-rich diets. At the same time, current scientific studies show that prolyl oligopeptidases can also enzymatically cleave complex protein structures such as so-called spike proteins. This expands the potential application spectrum of the enzyme beyond classic food intolerances – for example, with increased protein intake due to diet, environmental factors, or metabolic burdens.
But splitting is only half the battle: the resulting breakdown products must be eliminated. This is where your liver comes into play – the central detoxification organ, which is often chronically overloaded by Western diet, stress, and environmental influences. Targeted support can be useful here.
The Solution: Synergy Instead of Single Substance
Many products rely either on enzymes or on milk thistle – but few consider the process holistically. SpikaZYM plus combines both worlds: the highly active enzyme prolyl oligopeptidase (1,000,000 PPI) cleaves proline-specific compounds – not only in the intestine but systemically in vessels and tissues. Milk thistle (300 mg highly concentrated extract 10:1 = 3 g plant power) supports your liver metabolism in the elimination of breakdown products. Lecithin optimizes the bioavailability of valuable plant substances.
What Makes SpikaZYM plus Special:
- Substantial Enzyme Activity: With 1,000,000 PPI per daily portion, SpikaZYM plus is among the most active prolyl oligopeptidase products on the market. For comparison: many conventional products contain only 180,000 PPI.
- Proline Specialist: While general proteases cover a broad spectrum, prolyl oligopeptidase is specialized in the cleavage of proline peptides – exactly where your body reaches its limits.
- Systemically Active: The enzyme works in the universal pH range (pH 7-9) and can therefore be active not only in the intestine but also in vessels and tissues.
- Gastric Acid-Resistant Capsules: The HPMC capsule shell protects the sensitive enzyme from aggressive stomach acid and releases it only in the small intestine – for optimal systemic support.
- Holistic Approach: Enzyme cleaves, milk thistle accompanies the elimination – according to the orthomolecular principle of synergy complexes.
Consumption Recommendation for Optimal Absorption
For best results, consume SpikaZYM plus 30 minutes before a meal with good water. This allows the enzyme to optimally prepare to reach the small intestine and unfold systemically there. It is particularly useful to take it before protein-rich or gluten-containing meals.
SpikaZYM plus combines highly active enzyme power with traditional plant knowledge – in a natural, vegan complex formula. For your digestion, your liver, and your natural balance.
FAQ & Frequently Asked Questions about SpikaZYM plus and Enzymes
Even though your body produces its own digestive enzymes, it has only a limited ability to break down proline—a particularly resilient amino acid. Proline is found in many complex proteins, such as gluten or other hard-to-digest peptide structures. A targeted supplementation with prolyl oligopeptidase can help your body break down these compounds more efficiently—especially with a protein-rich or gluten-containing diet.
Because they work perfectly together: The enzyme breaks down complex proline peptides—in the intestine and beyond, systemically in vessels and tissues. However, the resulting breakdown products need to be eliminated. This is where milk thistle provides support: It assists your liver metabolism, the central detoxification organ, in excretion. Enzyme breaks down, plant accompanies—this synergy makes SpikaZYM plus a holistic solution.
SpikaZYM plus provides 1,000,000 PPI (Protease Picomole International) per daily serving (2 capsules). This is a remarkable enzyme activity. For comparison: many conventional products contain only 180,000 PPI. The high activity ensures that your body is optimally supported in breaking down complex proline peptides.
SpikaZYM plus is safe when consumed as directed. The recommended daily dose of 2 capsules should not be exceeded. Important: Prolyl oligopeptidase has blood-thinning properties due to its enzymatic function and can enhance the effects of blood-thinning or anticoagulant medications. If you are taking such medications, please consult your doctor beforehand.
SpikaZYM plus is particularly beneficial for people with a protein-rich or gluten-containing diet, for gluten intolerances, to support an overburdened liver, during phases of increased metabolic stress, or for targeted digestive support. SpikaZYM plus is also a valuable supplement for ketogenic or vegan diets.
