Digestaid - Digestive Enzymes, High-Potency

Good digestive health is vital in obtaining optimum benefit from the food we eat. Proper digestion requires that sufficient enzymes be produced by the body. The breaking down of food such as protein, carbohydrate and fat into smaller absorbable units is performed by digestive enzymes. There are specific digestive enzymes that break down protein (called proteases), carbohydrate (amylases) and fat (lipases). The proper digestion and absorption of protein and fat are extremely important to ensure uptake of nutrients essential to general immune function, wound healing, maintenance of cellular vitality, etc.

Possible causes of maldigestion are bad food choices, anxiety, stress, enzyme deficiency, and many others. Junk food, for instance, irritates the digestive organs and reduces digestive speed and efficiency. Research indicates that today most people have weak digestion and poor intestinal flora. Maldigestion can cause belching, flatulence, bloating, heartburn, as well as serious nutritional deficiencies leading to weight gain and all kinds of digestive disorders. These, in turn, may cause allergies, aches and pains, fatigue, skin problems, moodiness, etc.

To avoid these health problems, we can help our digestive system by avoiding unhealthy foods, by using food combining (for example separating proteins from carbohydrates speeds up digestion making it more efficient), by consuming an adequate amount of dietary fiber, by supplementing with friendly probiotic bacteria that help protect our intestinal flora, and by taking digestive enzyme supplements before and/or during meals.

Digestaid is a professionally formulated digestive enzyme supplement. It provides a comprehensive blend of plant enzymes active in a broad pH range to aid in food digestion. Protease breaks down protein, amylase breaks down carbohydrate, lipase breaks down fat. Cellulase breaks down fiber, and lactase breaks down lactose (milk sugar). Bromelain and Papain are primarily protein digesting enzymes.

Digestaid should be used every time when eating foods that can cause gas, bloating, heartburn or any other signs of maldigestion. Take two capsules when starting a meal.
