Why do I need Enzymes?
When it is in its natural state, raw and unprocessed, the food you eat, along with its many nutrients, contains some of the enzymes you need specifically to break down that food. But many of us exist on a diet of primarily cooked food, and digestive enzymes are extremely sensitive to heat. In fact, they are more sensitive to heat than vitamins are and are destroyed by any heat above 118 F, so imagine what cooking does to digestive enzymes and to your digestion. Not only cooking, but also pasturization, canning and microwaving destroy digestive enzymes. When the food you eat does not contribute some of the enzymes needed for its own digestion, your body has to contribute more than its share, diverting enzymes from other necessary functions and contributing to all manner of health problems.
There are four main types of digestive enzymes, they include:
Cellulase
- Cellulase breaks down fibre and is found only in plants and plant enzymes: it is absent from both the pancreatic enzymes produced by your body and from the pancreatic enzymes found in animal source digestive enzymes.
Amylase
- Amylase breaks down carbohydrates. There are many types of amylase. Lactase, for example, breaks down the milk sugar, lactose, and Maltase breaks down the malt sugar, maltose. Invertase helps digest sugar, and pectinase helps breakdown the fibre,
pectin.
Lipase
- Lipase is responsible for digesting fats. Without lipase, we would not only poorly absorb fats, but also all of the fat-soluble vitamins,
like vitamins A, D, E and K and all the carotenes.
Protease
- Protease, as the name suggests, breaks down proteins. Without proper
protein
digestion a whole host of health problems from food allergies, to leaky gut syndrome, to toxicity and even skin diseases like
psoriasis
become possible. And that's not all. The proteases
play a very large part in keeping the small intestine free from yeast, including
candida, bacteria, protazoa and other parasites. The well-known digestive aid,
Bromelain, is derived from pineapple and is actually a mixture of a number of proteases and small amounts of other enzymes.
Bromelain
is an excellent protein digester and is able to do its work in both the stomach and the small intestine.
Digestive Health
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.
Stress, anxiety and other emotional concerns put our nervous system in an excited state. Our digestive processes are only fully functional when our nervous system is relaxed. Sedentary lifestyles decrease movement throughout the digestive tract. As our transit time slows there is more opportunity for the resorption of processed toxins from our food and greater chance of microbial overgrowth. Slow transit time also dries the stool and makes it more difficult to pass. Our body is designed so that each time we eat a meal we have a bowel movement. Many individuals can be considered constipated and have bowel movements less than once daily.
Good digestive function is ultimately the foundation to good health. Support your body's natural digestive functions 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; eat until 80% full.
Taking a HCL supplement before meals.
Supplementing with
Probiotics.
Taking digestive enzyme during or after meals.
