Arthur Andrew Medical
Arthur Andrew Medical was founded on a very simple principle: creating products that simply deliver results. The foundation was laid with nutritional supplements based on enzymes and probiotics, and they have since expanded into other areas to provide the most advanced product line possible.
Arthur Andrew Medical is not a company that simply launches new products based on trends or hype. They invest countless hours in developing products and formulas they are proud of and are certain will actually deliver results.

How does AAM differ from other enzyme brands?
AAM standardises its products in functional activity units (FU, SPU, GDU and so on) rather than just milligrams. That gives a more reliable picture of what a capsule actually does.
How long do I need to use Fordmap DPE to notice an effect?
Digestive enzymes: effect at the meal itself. Systemic enzymes (such as nattokinase, serrapeptase): often 4-8 weeks before a noticeable effect.
Can I combine AAM products with other supplements?
Digestive enzymes combine well with probiotics. Systemic enzymes: not with blood thinners without consulting a doctor.
Is Fordmap DPE safe for long-term use?
Digestive enzymes are generally safe for long-term use. For systemic enzymes: always consult a doctor if you are having surgery or use blood thinners.
Does Fordmap DPE contain allergens?
