Digestzymes is comprised of a proprietary blend of digestive enzymes along with betaine HCL to support optimal digestion of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. This product contains the special protease DPP IV (dipeptidyl peptidase IV), which aids in the breakdown of casomorphin (from casein) and gluteomorphin (from gluten). Digestzymes also includes the enzyme lactase, which helps break down the dairy sugar: lactose. The use of Digestzymes before meals may be helpful when patients experience gas and bloating after eating, occasional constipation, or a feeling of fullness after eating only a small quantity of food.
In order to assimilate vitamins and nutrients from our food and supplements, we must be able to digest them properly. Studies show that the foods in the typical American diet are devoid of natural enzymes and do little to help secrete our own production of enzymes. Thus, foods do not get digested well and nutrients from food are poorly absorbed.
Many health experts agree that regular consumption of enzymes and enzyme-rich foods is a key to vibrant health and anti-aging. Every cell in the body needs enzymes for its biochemical functions.
