- A high potency, broad spectrum, digestive enzyme complex with betaine HCl
- Provides plant-sourced enzymes
- Designed to support the digestion of fat (important for absorption of vitamins A, D, E and K), sugar, carbohydrates, starches, protein and milk
- Supports the production of stomach acid to aid digestion of food as well as absorption of nutrients including minerals and B12
- In capsule form
- Suitable for vegans
More detailed description
- Cyto-Zyme is a high potency, digestive enzyme complex
- Provides a broad spectrum of plant-sourced enzymes, which digest protein, fat, fibre, dairy, sugars and carbohydrates
- The plant-sourced enzymes in Cyto-Zyme are bromelain, lipase, protease, amylase, papain, lactase and cellulase
- Cutoplan have chosen enzymes that are largely resistant to degradation by hydrochloric acid from the stomach, so they may easily reach the small intestine where most digestion takes place
- Equally, these enzymes are active in a wide range of pH to allow for individual variations
- A small amount of hydrochloric acid is included. Hydrochloric acid is produced in the stomach to provide an acidic environment for the digestion of food. People may have low levels of hydrochloric acid for a number of reasons
- As well as everyday use, a digestive enzyme supplement may be beneficial for short-term use whilst on holiday to provide additional digestive support when eating cuisines that the body may not be used to
- Reduced stomach acid and digestive enzymes is associated with digestive problems including bloating and reflux, food intolerance and nutrient insufficiencies
