Arrowwind09, I've been calling digestive enzyme companies to learn more about what exactly it is that I'm taking. There are two types that are typically used, one is plant based and the other is fungal based. I've been using a brand called Drs. Best and this is their email to me:

The fungal enzymes used in Best Digestive Enzymes are derived from Aspergillus fungi. However, the enzymes are spun off the fungus and purified so no trace of a fungus would be present....just the enzyme itself which is a protein.


She said it was created in a sterile enviroment on a petri dish type setting.

Interestingly, Enzymedica uses the same fungus aspergillus but grows it on a soy or barley. Their enzymes are plant based.
