What are Digestive Enzymes?
Digestive enzymes are produced naturally by our bodies, but there may be times when we need extra support. Particularly as we age, or during periods of illness, our enzyme activity may decline, and so the breakdown and absorption of vital nutrients may be compromised.
Essential Digestive Plus™ is a broad spectrum of vegetarian digestive enzymes which help extract nutrients from all the main food groups.
The formula includes:
• Protease breaks down protein
• Lipase breaks down fat
• Cellulose breaks down vegetable fibre
• Lactase breaks down lactose, milk sugar
• Amylase breaks down starches, sugars & carbohydrates
• Alpha galactosidase breaks down fermentable carbohydrates
• Pectinase breaks down pectin, a polysaccharide found in plant cell walls.
Plus Fruta-Fit Inulin, a prebiotic fibre which supports the growth of beneficial bacteria in the large intestine, especially Bifidobacteria. These bacteria help increase short chain fatty acid production which improves the working of the intestine contributing to good bowel movement and digestion.
