Good health begins with proper digestion. Yet digestive disorders, abdominal discomfort, bloating and gas are wide spread. More than 10 percent of the population is lactose intolerant. While antacids may neutralize stomach acid, they actually slow the digestive process without addressing the true cause of indigestion. DigestZymeActin-GI reduces the discomfort of incomplete digestion, while actually improving the breakdown of carbohydrates, fats and proteins. It is a powerful blend of digestive enzymes including proteases, alpha and beta amylase, invertase, maltase, alpha-galactosidase, lipase, and cellulase. This optimal blend is specifically designed to break down a broad range of foods into nutrients your body can readily use. DigestZymeActin-GI supports the digestion of lactose, as well as casein and other proteins and fats inherent in dairy products. Also, it contains a special enzyme complex that breaks down hard-to-digest components of plant fiber. Alpha-galactosidase breaks down complex carbs found in legumes, vegetables, and grains, while reducing the discomforts of incomplete digestion. Ingredients: 300 mg BPPS™ Enhanced Delivery Technology Enzyme Blend: Amylase, Protease(I, II, and III), Lipase, Lactase, Cellulase, Maltase, Invertase, Bromelain, Serrapeptase, Papain and Alpha-Galactosidase in a Microcrystalline Cellulose base, 100mg Proprietary Blend: Amla, Papaya Powder Suggested Use: Take 1 to 2 capsules with each meal or as directed by your health care professional. AMYLASE is an enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates, more specifically starch, into smaller dextrins and sugars and is produced naturally by humans, microorganisms and plants. PROTEASES are enzymes that hydrolyze (break down) proteins like casein, steak, gelatin, soy, fish and other plant and animal proteins to smaller chains of polypeptides (small proteins) and amino acids for easier uptake throughout the body. LIPASE is an enzymes that catalyzes the break-down of fats into essential fatty acids that are needed for healthy tissues and cells. LACTASE is an enzyme that breaks down milk sugar (lactose). HEMICELLULASE is an enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates, like fiber and other plant polysaccharides whose digestion can be problematic. CELLULASE is an enzyme that digests cellulose, a complex polysaccharide found in all plant material including plant fiber. MALTASE is an enzyme that breaks down starch into the sugar maltose. INVERTASE is an enzyme that breaks down sucrose into the simple sugars glucose and fructose. BROMELAIN is a collective name for the proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzymes found in the pineapple plane (Ananas comosus) and is known for its digestive properties. Because of its activity across a wide pH range, bromelain is a good substitute for pepsin and trypsin for digestive support. SERRAPEPTASE is an enzyme used by silkworms to dissolve their silken cocoons. It has been isolated, studied, and used extensively for over 50 years and has been found to be an excellent fibrinolytic (fibrin digesting), and proteolytic (protein digesting) and anti-inflammatory enzyme. PAPAIN is a widely used enzyme obtained from the latex of the fruit of the Papaya tree. Papain has been used for centuries as an effective digestive aid. ALPHA-GALACTOSIDASE is an enzyme that breaks down complex carbohydrates such as raffinose, and stachyose, commonly contained in legumes. AMLA, or Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis) is a natural and efficacious antioxidant, and one of the richest available sources of absorbable vitamin C. PAPAYA POWDER (GREEN) from green papaya fruit is a natural source of papain and chymopapain, two enzymes that are well-known for their digestive, proteolytic (protein-digesting) properties. |
