Digestive enzymes are beneficial for:
Geriatric individuals (as we age, enzyme secretion decreases)
Those with jaw or teeth problems (improper chewing of food decreases enzyme secretion)
Those under stress
Those who overuse antacids (overuse of antacids can decrease enzyme effectiveness and secretion)
Those who eat a lot of fried, grilled or baked foods (foods prepared at high temperatures for long periods of time lose naturally occurring enzyme activity)
People with deficient digestive enzymes (those who lack digestive enzymes are more prone to digestive problems)
For use as a proteolytic enzyme supplement
ProZyme places special emphasis on proteolytic enzymes, so that it can be used not only for digestive support, but also to support comfort and provide building blocks for injured tissues.
Digestive enzymes are secreted along the G.I. tract and are essential to the breakdown of foods, enabling nutrients to be absorbed into the bloodstream for use within the body.
Digestive Health
The digestive process takes food material, breaks it down into absorbable pieces and transports it into the body. It is a complex process, involving many organs.
Many foods that we eat, other substances we consume and our lifestyles contribute to digestive disorders. Highly processed foods, alcohol, medications and tobacco are difficult for our body to break down and cause great strain on our organs, such as the liver and
pancreas. They may also physically damage the digestive lining. Processed foods are also deficient in nutrients so not only does the body have to work extra hard to digest the food, but it also gets depleted of the things it needs to do its work. Water and fibre intake is important to have proper moisture and bulk in the stool and make bowel movements regular.
Support Digestive Health By
Chewing food completely.
Eating several small meals daily instead of three large meals.
Avoiding fluids with meals
Eating a variety of fresh fruits and vegetables.
Avoiding refined, processed foods
Not overeating.
Taking a HCL supplement before meals.
Supplementing with
Probiotics.
Taking digestive enzyme during or after meals.
ENZYMES
Enzymes are catalysts of chemical reactions. This means that they initiate and increase the rate of one or several body processes. Without enzymes, reactions in the body would take place too slowly to maintain life. Digestive enzymes are responsible for breaking down food particles so that they can be absorbed in the intestinal tract and either used for energy or stored for later use.
There are three main categories of digestive enzymes,
amylase, protease and lipase. Amylase enzymes digest sugars, for example, like milk sugar is digested by lactase and cane sugar by sucrase. Amylase is found in saliva, pancreatic juice and intestinal juice. Proteases are responsible for breaking down
protein. It is found in intestinal and pancreatic juice. Lipases digest fat and are released in the stomach and intestines.
NATURAL DIGESTIVE SUPPORT
Betaine HCL
Betaine hydrochloride contains approximately 23% hydrochloric acid, commonly known as stomach acid. It is naturally sourced from
beets. Stomach acid initiates the digestive process by beginning the breakdown of food, especially
protein. It is also an important protective mechanism against infection by killing any microbes that are contained in our food or water. Low stomach acid impairs one's ability to digest food by limiting the release and functioning of other digestive enzymes.
Papain
(papaya)
The papaya seeds contain papain a naturally occurring protein-digestive (proteolytic) enzyme. The term "leaky gut" is used to describe undigested protein particles that get into the bloodstream and cause allergic reactions. By effectively breaking down protein papain supplements decrease the number of undigested protein particles that gain entrance to the body. Papain improves food allergies, indigestion and immune functioning.
Pancreatin
Another addition may be glandular extracts such as pancreatin, which is made by concentrating the pancreatic juices of an animal. This extract will include most naturally occurring enzymes in the ratio of the animal from which they were extracted.
