Enzymedica's proprietary Thera-blend™ technology means that the enzymes found in Digest Gold +PROBIOITICS will work throughout the entire pH spectrum found along your digestive tract. When other brands’ enzyme formulas may fall short, in almost all acidic or alkaline environments, Digest Gold +PROBIOTICS will be effective. All of our products are made from only the highest quality enzymes and contain absolutely no fillers to ensure purity. Every product is 100% vegetarian, and we seek out vegan and Kosher ingredients whenever possible. Each product is specifically formulated to provide targeted support for common digestive discomforts, food intolerances, cardiovascular health, proper immune function or healthy inflammatory responses. Many fruits contain a sugar called fructose, which for some people, can generate an intolerance reaction as severe as lactose. Our gallbladder is a critical feature of our digestive system. If it has to be surgically removed, this can pose a major challenge for digestion.
Enzymes do digestion. They are naturally occurring proteins that speed up reactions. Enzymes act like tiny scissors, cutting up the food we’ve eaten into smaller components. This helps our body more easily and fully absorb nutrients. Active units tell you the potency and level of activity of an enzyme, similar to how watts are a measure of the output of a lightbulb. Enzymedica chooses enzymes solely for their potency and effectiveness, not for their weight. Measuring in active units is an internationally recognised standard and makes comparisons of potency easier. So beware, products stating weight in milligrams, are not really telling you as much, as products declaring active units. 3. 'Other Ingredients' Products in the Enzymedica UK range that are supportive of fat digestion, are LypoGold which contains a generous amount of the fat digesting enzyme lipase and Berberine, which stimulates bile release from the gallbladder. When there is trouble digesting fats, the early signs are heartburn and nausea. Later, bloating, constipation or diarrhoea can occur, often up to three hours after eating.In addition to ageing, modern lifestyles can also work against us. Things like more and longer periods of exposure to artificial light, disrupted sleeping patterns, higher and more persistent stress levels and an increasing exposure to chemicals, pesticides and preservatives in food – all put more pressure on our digestive system. It then has to work harder, with less resources, to process and detoxify our meals. No fillers, binders, colourants or ‘other ingredients’ can be found in any of the Enzymedica products. 4. Does it matter whether the enzymes are in tablets or capsules? – Yes.
Early signs of digestive stress can manifest as excessive wind, diarrhoea, constipation, stomach cramps and heartburn. Later, those same digestive problems will evolve into more systemic problems such as migraine headaches, eczema, rashes and a whole plethora of other symptoms. Many of these nutrient-deficiency signs, may never be recognisable as being related to digestive health issues. Difficulties in digesting fats can show up in various ways. For some, it may be loosened bowels and others, constipation. There are other clues: There are many sugars that can be found in our food, however, tend to be present in higher quantities in fruit and vegetables. The only ‘other ingredient’ in Enzymedica enzymes is the 100% vegetarian capsule itself. You will only find active enzymes inside the capsule, therefore offering the highest level of potency. When Enzymedica create their natural enzyme products, through a patented TheraBlend™ process, they make sure they blend enzymes that work at every pH level. If they didn’t, the products may not work in the acidic environment of the stomach, or underperform in an alkaline environment like the small intestine – making them ineffective for the whole of the digestive system.Tablets are usually heavily manufactured. They are made by mixing, heating and compressing powdered ingredients into a hard solid pill. Often cheaper to manufacture than capsules, they can cause irritation and leave a bad aftertaste. They are also less likely to be absorbed in the body which then reduces their effectiveness. This process can easily deactivate the contents and reduce the effectiveness of enzymes. These pH levels act as a switch; turning the natural enzymes in your body on an off, i.e. activating and de-activating them. A high pH will stimulate some enzymes, while a low pH will trigger others. The solution to this - is the perfect combination of enzymes. That’s where Enzymedica’s TheraBlend ™ products come in When dietary fats are poorly metabolised (or not metabolised at all) – our body is not able to use the calories that they provide. This causes our blood sugar to become unstable, which triggers weight loss resistance. This may also be accompanied by carbohydrate cravings – as the body tries to create its own fats, from the dietary sugars it gets from carbohydrate digestion. Without enough enzymes, our body can struggle to break down troublesome foods, leading to occasional gas, bloating, indigestion and irregularity. With all-natural enzyme supplementation, your body gets an extra boost to the digestive process, helping maximize energy and contributing to whole-body health.*
We believe knowledge has the power to change lives. Our goal of educating people about the importance of enzymes in overall health is what motivates Enzymedica every day. You just need to understand a little about the significance of pH in human digestion. What is pH anyway?
In conclusion
Enzymedica UK’s Digest Spectrum and VeggieGest were developed to effectively counter these reactions. Fats are the last in the queue when it comes to the digestive system. Problems associated with digesting fats, may take up to 3 hours to manifest after eating; unlike carbohydrate digestion, where issues occur much sooner. When the combination of water and missing digestive enzymes meet in the gut, either due to genetics, age, lifestyle, or medications, extra water is drawn into the bowel, triggering a sudden, watery diarrhoea. Choosing an enzyme based on milligrams, is like choosing a lightbulb based on its weight and physical size; it means very little in terms of how brightly it will shine. Two lightbulbs can be the same size and weight – but the strength of light can be quite different. The same goes for enzymes, you can have the same weight of material in a capsule, but the potency will vary. Digestion is a symphony of two parts. The first is called ‘mechanical digestion’ – this is the act of breaking down foods by force. We do this by cooking, blending, juicing and most importantly – by chewing. The next stage is called ‘chemical digestion’ which describes the release of saliva, digestive enzymes, stomach acid and bile fluids which all enter the gut to chemically digest the food. Actually, it doesn’t matter how much we blend, boil or chew food – we cannot make food molecules small enough for the body to absorb - enzymes do that.
Fortunately, testing Vitamin D levels is easy, with many low-cost, simple fingerprint tests widely available. It is such a critical nutrient for good health, that GP’s may test for Vitamin D on a routine blood test. If you know that you are low on vitamin D, despite supplementation – it may be due to inactive lipase enzymes. The gallbladder is a pear-shaped organ that sits below the liver. Between meals, it stores a highly alkaline fluid, called bile. This bile is secreted by our liver. When we eat, the gallbladder contracts to release bile salts into the intestines. This creates a sudden increase in pH levels - from neutral to highly alkaline – which activates the lipase enzyme and kills bacteria in the digestive tract. When lipase enzymes are activated, they get to work on dietary fats – breaking them down into microscopic lipids. Once small enough, these lipids, such as Omega 3 fatty acids and Vitamins D, E and K can be absorbed by the body. Signs of poor fat digestion are much more subtle and harder to spot than the rapid digestive reactions that are common with carbohydrate related digestive health problems. Berberine is an alkaloid found in many plants, but most notably in goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis), barberry (Berberis vulgaris), Oregon grape (Berberis aquifolium), and goldthread (Coptis chinensis). These plants have a long history of use in supporting health. Berberine can be produced from various plant parts (e.g., seed, bark, root, etc.). Enzymedica’s Berberine is a sustainable product produced from the seeds of barberry (Berberis vulgaris). How do you know whether the products you are taking, or considering, are good value and effective? If you want to compare products, below are some of the things you may want to look out for. All of this information is contained on the product label. For example, does it matter if the product is a tablet or a capsule? How pure is the product? Have lots of potential allergens or fillers been added to ‘bulk out’ the product? What information is there about allergens? Does weight matter? 1. Milligrams v active units – does it matter? – Yes.Capsules on the other hand, have the medication enclosed in a protective outer shell. They tend to be faster acting, tasteless, tamper resistant, more absorbable by the body and therefore more effective. This is why Enzymedica only uses capsules for all the products in their range. In conclusion Enzymedica's proprietary Thera-blend™ technology means that the enzymes found in Digest Gold will work throughout the entire pH spectrum found along your digestive tract. When other brands' enzyme formulas may fall short, in almost all acidic or alkaline environments, Digest Gold will be effective. Protein digesting support, suitable for vegans, can be found in high protease formulas, while stomach acid can be improved with Betaine HCL. You shouldn’t have to. By using carefully formulated natural enzymes, you can offset reactions to problem foods. When we are young, our metabolism is incredibly robust – we can eat heavy, fat-laden foods and still wake up feeling active and energised. By the age of 30, our digestive abilities naturally start to decline and our metabolism slows down. Once we reach 40 and beyond, losing weight can become more difficult and food intolerances can develop - just at the time that hormonal changes are slowing our digestive system even further.
