Abstract: This invention relates to the use of an acidic soft drink for improving the efficiency of gluten digestion and more specifically of a gluten-digesting enzyme supplement. Said use allows maintaining or enhancing gastrointestinal comfort in celiac or non-celiac gluten sensitive individuals, or delaying the onset of gastrointestinal discomfort in non-celiac gluten sensitive healthy individuals using a reduced amount of gluten-digesting enzyme. Furthermore, it relates to an acidic soft drink having a pH in the range of 2 to 3.5 for use to support gluten digestion, and to prevent gastrointestinal discomfort following the ingestion of a gluten-containing meal by a gluten-sensitive consumer.

Abstract: This invention relates to a method of marketing a gluten-digesting enzyme supplement comprising providing an effective amount of a gluten-digesting enzyme to a person desirous of maintaining or enhancing gastro intestinal comfort or delaying the onset of gastrointestinal discomfort; or desirous of reducing gluten exposure, and informing the gluten sensitive individuals of the ability to increase the efficacy of the supplement by drinking one serving of an acidic soft drink having a pH in a range from 2 to 3.5. Furthermore, it relates to a kit comprising a gluten-digesting enzyme supplement and instructions for use in combination with an acidic soft drink having a pH in a range from 2 to 3.5.
