Stop the Bloat Before It Starts. Clinical-grade enzymes to break down difficult proteins, fats, and carbs, so you get the fuel, not the fog.*
Digestive enzymes are responsible for the breakdown of large macronutrients in the small intestine. These enzymes are secreted by the stomach and pancreas and travel along the small intestine where they are able to break down complex carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. This process is essential for ensuring that the body receives the correct proportions of vitamins, minerals, and other nutrients.
Digestive Enzyme Complex is a broad-spectrum formula packed with active fungal or plant-based enzymes, herbs, and whole-food extracts designed to help support the digestion of fat, protein, carbohydrates, fiber, and lactose. This synergistic formula provides support for healthy digestion and relief from occasional discomforts such as gas, bloating, and indigestion.*
Ah, the love-hate relationship with food. We all enjoy indulging in our favorite dishes, but sometimes, our bodies don't seem as thrilled. Ever felt bloated or uncomfortable after a seemingly healthy meal, like a crunchy kale salad? It's a common dilemma: should we sacrifice our favorite foods or endure discomfort?
Digestion, though it seems straightforward, is actually a complex process. It begins with how thoroughly we chew our food. Experts suggest chewing each bite 30 times, but who really counts?
Many of us would prefer to savor our meals without the nagging issues of bloating, gas, burping, feeling overly full, or drained of energy. This is where the role of enzymes becomes crucial.
Yes, our bodies naturally produce digestive enzymes necessary for breaking down food into useful nutrients like amino acids, vitamins, and minerals. Ideally, we'd have all the enzymes we need for optimal digestion. However, various factors can impede our body's ability to produce sufficient enzymes. These factors include aging, stress, poor gut health, genetics, lack of exercise, dietary changes, alcohol consumption, poor sleep, and a limited diet.
Even with a healthy lifestyle, you might find your body lacking in certain digestive enzymes. For instance, our bodies do not produce enzymes like cellulase, which is essential for breaking down fibrous foods like kale.
This is where Digestive Enzyme Complex comes in. It's designed to supplement your body's enzyme production, aiding in more comfortable and efficient digestion. So, you can continue to enjoy your favorite meals without the unwanted after-effects.
✔ Supports healthy digestion of Macronutrients and enhances nutrient absorption*
✔ Supports breakdown of lactose (milk sugar)*
✔ Support breakdown of carbohydrates such as polysaccharides in beans and cruciferous vegetables*
✔ Provides additional support for those diets which may be lacking natural digestive enzymes*
✔ Helps support Pancreatic and Intestinal enzyme function*
Digestive Complex incorporates amylase, lipase, proteases, bromelain, papain, lactase, and several other vital digestive enzymes to provide an extensive formula that works in a wide pH range for digestive support. Unlike other enzyme-based products, our formula includes whole foods extracts, including licorice and ginger, along with other herbs, such as fennel, peppermint, and marshmallow root, for nutritional value and calming properties.
✔ Ginger
Ginger reduces intestinal cramping, and subsequently prevents indigestion, flatulence, and bloating.
✔ Fennel
Fennel seed essential oils stimulate the production of digestive juices and enzymes which efficiently improves digestion. Fennel seeds contain alnethole, fenchone and estragole that act as antispasmodic and anti-inflammatory. Therefore, fennel may help with constipation, indigestion and bloating.
✔ Peppermint
Peppermint calms the stomach muscles and improves the movement of the bile, which the body uses to digest fats. As a result, food moves more quickly through the stomach.
✔ Marshmallow root
Marshmallow root can also be used to treat many digestive conditions, including constipation, heartburn, and intestinal colic.
This carbohydrate enzyme helps break down complex carbohydrates into simpler sugars, making them easier to absorb and utilize by the body. By improving carbohydrate digestion, it can reduce insulin spikes and promote stable blood sugar levels.
Another carbohydrate enzyme derived from pineapple, bromelain aids in the digestion of proteins. It assists in breaking down larger protein molecules into smaller peptides and amino acids, enhancing their absorption and utilization.
This fiber enzyme helps in the breakdown of cellulose, a complex carbohydrate found in plant cell walls. By breaking down cellulose, cellulase supports the digestion and utilization of dietary fiber, promoting healthy bowel movements.
Similar to amylase, glucoamylase assists in the digestion of complex carbohydrates, specifically in breaking down the glucose polymers found in starches into individual glucose molecules.
This carbohydrate enzyme aids in the digestion of sucrose (table sugar) by breaking it down into its simpler components, glucose and fructose for glucose balance
Lactase is a dairy enzyme required for the digestion of lactose, the sugar found in milk and other dairy products. Individuals with lactose intolerance often lack sufficient lactase production, leading to digestive discomfort. Supplementing with lactase can help improve lactose digestion.
Lipase is a fat-digesting enzyme that breaks down dietary fats into fatty acids and glycerol, facilitating their absorption in the small intestine.
Maltase is responsible for breaking down maltose, a disaccharide found in grains, into two glucose molecules, enabling efficient carbohydrate digestion.
As a proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzyme derived from papaya, papain helps break down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids, supporting their digestion and absorption
Protease is a broad-spectrum enzyme that aids in the digestion of various proteins. It helps break down peptide bonds between amino acids, facilitating protein utilization.
Betaine HCl is a digestive aid that helps maintain proper stomach acidity. It supports the breakdown of food and the activation of digestive enzymes, particularly in individuals with low stomach acid production.
This blend includes DGL (deglycyrrhizinated licorice root extract), ginger root extract, peppermint powder, fennel seed powder, and marshmallow root. These herbs have traditionally been used to support digestion, soothe the digestive tract, reduce bloating, and alleviate nausea. By incorporating these digestive enzymes and herbal ingredients into your routine, you can improve the breakdown and absorption of nutrients, reduce digestive discomfort, and support overall digestive health.
