Digestive Blend
Enzymes are protein-based biological catalysts that drive essential biochemical reactions in the body. While there is a multitude of enzymes, each serves a distinct role, exhibiting functional specificity. Enzymes participate in numerous biochemical reactions within the organisms, such as digestion, absorption, and excretion. Enzymes directly involved in the digestion and absorption of dietary nutrients are specifically termed “digestive enzymes.” Without the help of these digestive enzymes, the digestive tract cannot function normally, thereby undermining the foundation of human health and affects vital life processes.
This digestive enzyme blend features over 20 natural enzymes to support dietary management, including: amylase, glucoamylase, plant-based enzymes (lipase, protease, and amylase), phytase, pectinase, lipase, protease, invertase, protease 4.5, bromelain, β-glucanase, cellulase, protease 3.0, hemicellulase, xylanase, lactase, papain, peptide enzymes, protease 6.0, glucoamylase, and maltodextrin.
The health effects of this digestive blend have been verified by Nederlandse Organisatie voor Toegepast Natuurwetenschappelijk Onderzoek (TNO) using an in vitro dynamic gastrointestinal model to simulate intestinal conditions (including stomach, small intestine, and large intestine)
Purpose: To investigate the effect of the digestive enzyme blend on the utilization and digestibility of proteins and carbohydrates.
Results: Increased absorption rates of glucose and amino acids in the small intestine were observed in both fully functional and compromised digestive systems:
