$68.58
Designs For Health Plant Enzyme Digestive Formula - 90 V-Caps is a dietary supplement in capsule form, intended for adults as part of a daily wellness routine.
Designs for Health's Plant Enzyme Digestive Formula contains a unique PhytoENZ blend of 105 mg per capsule, aimed at breaking down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Modern diets and lifestyles can hinder digestion, leading to poor nutrient absorption and affecting various body functions, including immune health and energy levels. This formula features microbial-based digestive enzymes that may alleviate occasional heartburn, gas, and bloating. It is vegan-friendly and particularly beneficial for digesting plant-based foods like grains and beans. By improving digestion, these enzymes also support a healthy immune system and inflammatory response. [VCAPS]

THE IMPORTANTCE OF DIGESTIVE ENZYMES IN NUTRIENT ABSORPTION
While most people automatically think of digestion when the term “enzyme” comes up, the truth of the matter is that enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions throughout the body. Enzymes participate in practically every single process in the body! And while they are indeed essential for digestion, they are equally critical to the body’s various other metabolic functions, including liver function, breathing, muscle
protein
synthesis, nerve function, detoxification, and so many others.
Digestive enzymes are a category of enzymes unto themselves. They are produced chiefly by the
pancreas
but can also be made in the small intestine. Their principal responsibility is to break down large molecules in food into more easily absorbed particles that the body can use to function and thrive. An interesting thing about digestive enzymes is that each fulfils unique tasks in the body, i.e. lipase breaks down fats into fatty acids,
protease
breaks down
protein
into
amino acids, lactase breaks down lactose, a natural sugar found in dairy, and so on. There are three main types of digestive enzymes:
Proteolytic enzymes, which are needed to metabolize proteins
Lipases
for fat digestion
Amylases
which are required for carbohydrate digestion
A lack of digestive enzymes can lead to various gastrointestinal symptoms and cause malnourishment, even if you are consuming a healthy diet. In such instances, supplementing with these supplements will help your body process food and absorb nutrients better. It’s important to note that certain health conditions, such as pancreatitis, cystic fibrosis, and pancreatic
cancer, can all negatively impact enzymatic synthesis and activity. Other things that can cause an enzyme deficiency include Aging, Diets High In Sugar And Processed Foods, Frequent Antibiotic Use, Physical, Psychological And Emotional Stress, Pregnancy, and Smoking.
Unlocking the Benefits: How Digestive Enzymes Support Your Health
- Facilitate The Digestive Process
- Help The Body Break Down Carbohydrates, Fats, And Proteins
- Help Treat Leaky Gut And Other Conditions Like Celiac Disease, Acid Reflux,
Irritable Bowel
Syndrome, And Ulcerative Colitis
- Improve Nutrient Absorption To Prevent Deficiencies
- Naturally, Increase Energy
Identifying Your Need for Digestive Enzymes
These supplements are ideal for those who suffer from stomach-related issues such as:
- Heartburn
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
- Chron’s disease
- Celiac disease
- Ulcerative colitis
In addition, digestive enzymes are excellent for those who experience symptoms like bloating, gas, abdominal pain, acid reflux, dyspepsia, cravings for certain foods, and fatigue due to digestive issues. People who suffer from liver disease, food intolerances, weakened immunity, weight gain and obesity, anxiety and depression, and skin problems may also see a significant improvement in their conditions with the continued use of these supplements.
Choosing The Right Digestive Enzyme Supplements For Optimal Health
Because different foods require different types of enzymes, selecting a full-spectrum blend that covers all the bases is best. Look for a product that includes a variety of enzymes, including alpha-galactosidase,
amylase, cellulase, glucoamylase, invertase, lactase, lipase, malt diastase, protease, peptidase, pectinase, phytase, and others.
These supplements are widely available in health food stores or online and come in capsule, tablet, caplet, and powder forms. The potencies of the different enzymes in supplements can vary wildly, so pay attention to the dosing instructions on the label of the product you choose.
Take your digestive enzyme supplement 10-15 minutes before each meal for the best results. Protease supplements, on the other hand, can be taken in between meals.
Enhancing Your Digestive Health with Enzyme Supplements: A Summary
Digestive enzyme supplements primarily come from three sources:
Fruit-sourced
- pineapple or papaya are both incredibly effective at breaking down the proteins in our foods
Animal-sourced
- including
pancreatin, which contains high levels of biologically active pancreatic enzymes (lipase, amylase, and protease)
Plant-sourced
- derived from
probiotics, yeast, and fungi, which are ideal for vegetarians and vegans
If you have a history of liver or gallbladder disease or have an active ulcer(s), it's essential to consult a qualified natural health care practitioner before starting to supplement with digestive enzymes.
