Metagenics Digestizyme 90’s

Ingredients and Benefits: Digestive problems can cause improper digestion and malabsorption of nutrients that can have far reaching effects. Consequences of malabsorption can include impaired immunity, allergic reaction, poor wound healing, skin problems and mood swings. Enzymes are an integral part of the digestive process. These enzymes come from two sources, those found in the food itself, and those produced in the body. Who should use Digestizyme?    Those who may require better digestion and absorption    Those with food intolerances 1 vegicap contains: Protease 4.5                       7000 HUT Bromelain                          250 000 FCCPU Amylase                              4000 DU Alpha Galactosidase         295 GalU Lipase                                  250 FIP Fenugreek (seed)              80mg Glucoamylase                    10 AGU Papaya (leaf)                      75mg Peptidase                            2250 HUT Fennel (seed)                     20mg Lactase                                400 ALU Peppermint (leaf)              20mg Phytase                                6 FTU Angelica (root)                   15mg Cellulase                              300 CU Parsley (leaf)                      10mg Invertase                             200 SU *CereCalase                        13mg Diastase                               245 DP *CereCalase„ is an exclusive blend of enzymes, disrupting cell walls of herbs, vegetables and fruit Extra Features: Alpha-Galactosidase is included to break down a family of complex sugars found in some vegetables, and whole grains, as well as in legumes. These particular sugars, raffinose, stachyose, and verbascose, are indigestible because humans do not produce alpha-Galactosidase, required to break them down. As a result, they are not absorbed by the body. Left in the intestine, these sugars are fermented by the normal bacteria that inhabit the lower intestine with the subsequent formation of gas and bloating. Botanicals: Papaya leaf is a natural source of the proteolytic enzymes referred to as papain. Fenugreek is used as a digestive aid to allay stomach pains, and to stimulate liver function. The seeds have been shown to stimulate general pancreatic secretion, releasing more enzymes to aid in improving digestion. This herb has carminative, antispasmodic activities which help to soothe the stomach and ease indigestion. Fenugreek stimulates the appetite and naturally relieves pain and irritation of ulcers. The combination of these herbs provides a maximum assimilation and utilization of food nutrients. Fenugreek seeds are also high in protein, with large amounts of amino acids: lysine, tryptophan, leucine, histidine, and arginine. These would naturally contribute to better digestion and assimilation of nutrients. CereCalase„¢ is a unique proprietary blend of the enzymes phytase, hemicellulase, and beta-glucasnase. These enzymes work together to disrupt the cell walls of herbs, vegetables, and fruits.
