Product Description
What is Digestive Enzyme Complex?
Digestive Enzyme Complex is a vegetarian sourced digestive enzyme blend that contains amylase, cellulase, lactase, lipases, maltase, proteases, sucrase, bromelain, papain, and other enzymes.
Although Digestive Enzyme Complex features vegetarian sourced enzymes, it is important to note that some other enzymes are extracted from animal sources such as the pancreas, liver and stomach of cows or pigs. Examples of animal enzymes include oxbile, trypsin, chymotrypsin, rennin, pepsin, and pancreatin. Digestive Enzyme Complex does include other plant-based enzymes such as bromelain from pineapple and papain from papaya.
What does Digestive Enzyme Complex do?
Products classified as digestive enzymes help facilitate digestion, the absorption of nutrients, help maintain the proper pH in the gastrointestinal tract, and act as a barrier against invasion of foreign bacteria.
There are seven basic types of digestive enzymes, each with various sub-classifications and differing functions. The basic enzymes and their specific functions are as follows: amylase digests starches, cellulase digests fibers, lactase digests dairy products, lipases digest fats, oils and triglycerides, maltase digests starch and grains, proteases digest proteins and sucrase digests sugars.
Healthy digestion can truly bring the zest back into your life!
