Dr. Fred Bisci's Digestive Enzymes 90 Capsules $25
Our truly wonderful, more powerful blend of plant-based enzymes that are derived from sprouts and green juice extracts. These enzymes are optimized to work in wide pH variations throughout the digestive process, as compared to animal sourced enzymes which are only active within the small intestine in an alkaline setting of 8.0 pH. They not only aid in digestion and the metabolizing of our foods, but you can also use them to produce a cleanse. Enzymes are needed for every chemical reaction that takes place in our body. Enzymes are catalysts that work with every organ in the body and are required for all food digestion. Enzymes become active as soon as they enter the body and can prevent partially digested proteins from putrefying, carbohydrates from fermenting, and fat from turning rancid within the body. Enzymes are destroyed by cooking and food processing. How much do I take for digestion? 1 ? 2 caps 15-20 minutes before meals, 3 times a day or ? to ? tsp powder 20 minutes before meals 3 times a day.
How much do I take for cleansing? 3 caps or 1 teaspoon in between meals on an empty stomach *3 times per day. * Empty stomach is 1 hour before eating or 2 hours after eating Contains: A proprietary blend of plant-based enzymes, alpha & beta amylases, protease I and II, lipase, cellulase, lactase, maltase & invertese, glucanase, xylanase, pectinase, phytase, proprietary pepsidase. Cofactors include: Sprout and grass juice extracts, plant derived minerals, papain extract, bromelain, rutin and amla berry. FUNCTIONS OF ENZYMES Protease Blend - Blend of 5 proteolytic enzymes including peptidase, which aid in the digestion and utilization of dietary proteins. Helps deliver the specific nutrients necessary for muscle and tissue repair, as well as for vibrant immune system function. Amylase - digests starch and carbohydrates. Acts in concert with Protease to stimulate immune system function. Acts in association with lipase to digest fragments of viruses and reduce inflammation and infections. Lipase - digests fats, thereby aiding in weight control, maintaining and enhancing cardiovascular health, and helping maintain proper gall bladder function. Glucoamylase - breaks down carbohydrates, specifically polysaccharides. Malt Diastase (1000Maltase) - digests maltose, malt and grain sugars. May help relieve environmental sensitivities and allergies. Invertase (1000Sucrase) - digests sugars. Beneficial in helping prevent gastrointestinal problems and discomfort. Alpha-Galactosidase - aids in the digestion of difficult to digest foods such as beans, legumes and cruciferous vegetables such as cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower Lactase - digests the milk sugar lactose. Extremely useful for individuals suffering from lactose intolerance. May be beneficial for those suffering from irritable bowel syndrome and other digestive disorders in which a high percentage are adversely affected by dairy products. Cellulase - digests fiber cellulose into smaller units which include D-glucose. Helps remedy digestive problems such as malabsorption. Cellulase is a very important enzyme because the human body cannot produce it on its own. Xylanase - breaks down the sugar xylose.Pectinase - breaks down carbohydrates such as pectin (1000found in many fruits). Hemicellulase - breaks down carbohydrates called hemi-celluloses, which are found in plant foods.Mannanase - digest the sugar known as mannose. Phytase - breaks down carbohydrates, specifically phytates (1000phytic acid), present in many difficult to digest grains and beans. Especially useful for those suffering from serious bowel disorders which result in an inability to handle phytates from soy and gluten from wheat, oats, rye and barley. Phytase may increase mineral absorption and the bioavailability of iron, zinc, calcium, and magnesium. Beta-Glucanase - breaks down polysaccharides and fibers known as beta glucans. Arabinosidase - digests the sugar arabinose.Bromelain - an enzyme from the stem of pineapples, breaks down protein and fights inflammation and reduces swelling. May speed the recovery of injuries and swelling resulting from athletics, childbirth and surgery. Papain - similar to the chymotrypsin, a protein-digesting enzyme produced by the body. Used to treat chronic diarrhea and celiac disease. Treats gastrointestinal discomfort due to intestinal parasites.
