Digestzymes is proprietary blend of digestive enzymes along with betaine hydrochloride (HCl) to support the optimal digestion of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
Using protease dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV), this product also aids in the breakdown of the peptides gluteomorphin (from gluten), casomorphin (from casein), and soymorphin (from soy). It also contains the enzyme lactase, which helps break down the dairy sugar, lactose.
Taking Digestzymes before meals may be helpful for patients who experience gas and bloating after eating, occasional constipation, or a feeling of fullness after eating only a small quantity of food.
If the digestive function is compromised, no matter the quality of food, an individual cannot fully benefit from the nutrients in their diet.
Stress, aging, digestive disorders, medications, and other conditions may affect digestion by impacting the levels of stomach acid, pancreatic enzymes, or bile. These three components are key elements in the breakdown of food into the smaller, absorbable elements that the body requires to function.
Digestzymes contains Betaine HCl to support these acid levels and help with the breakdown of proteins, releasing enzymes to help with the digestion of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins, as well as the absorption of iron, vitamins B6, B9, and B12, calcium, and some medications. It also protects against bacteria and other microorganisms by destroying harmful pathogens to support a balanced microbiome.
- Support for healthy digestion of protein, fats, and carbohydrates.
- Support for malabsorption and maldigestion.
