Digestive Enzymes.. There is so much more to learn!
By Alissa Mack BHSc (Nat)
Most people know by now about the
immediate benefits of taking digestive
enzymes. If you don’t, then they
assist in the breakdown of proteins,
carbohydrates, fats and fibres, they are
suitable for all ages, they are vegetarian
friendly, and they work immediately
when taken with the first few mouthfuls
of food. Enzymes therefore give the
body more energy because it doesn’t
have to work so hard to digest food.
But what else do they do? Let’s look at a
FEW of the wonderful benefits of taking
supplemental digestive enzymes.
SHED EXCESS WEIGHT
Many overweight people have a
metabolism imbalance or soon create
one. The endocrine system regulates
our metabolism. Once we are able
to fortify the endocrine system, get
our bowels working regularly, correct
nutritional deficiencies and digest our
food thoroughly rather than turning
it into fat, we have a successful
combination. Enzymes, especially lipase,
will break down our fats properly, which
will help us burn fat, thus promoting
weight loss. The process is not
instantaneous, because we have to lose
fat instead of weight and a person has
to lose a great deal of fat to equal one
kilo of weight. It takes longer but it is
healthier, and it lasts longer. Best of all,
it does no harm!
AGEING
With an increasing ageing population
burdened with unhealthy diets and
stressful lifestyles, it is likely we will
develop more digestive problems.
Currently, it is estimated that 50% of
the Australian population suffers from
some type of digestive disorder. A lack
of optimal digestive function associated
with enzyme inadequacy may lead to
malabsorption and a host of related
conditions.
ENZYMES HELP US SLEEP
Enzymes enhance our endocrine
glands. The under-nourished endocrine
system may create a malfunction in our
hormonal system which can upset our
nervous system and sleep patterns.
When we are unable to digest our
food or deliver the nutrients to keep
our endocrine and nervous system in
balance, we cannot rebuild our body or
its energy level. Try taking digestive
enzymes during the night upon waking.
THE KEY TO LIFE AND GREAT HEALTH
Do you want to open the door to feeling
better, looking better and living longer?
Enzymes can unlock the door to all of
these because they improve digestion
and nutrient absorption, as well as
optimising function of every organ in
your body. Vitamins, minerals, herbs
and foods cannot do their jobs without
the help of enzymes. Without them,
very few of our life-sustaining chemical
reactions within the body would even
take place as they support the digestion
of food, the production of energy, the
manufacturing of hormones and the
destruction of foreign substances and
waste. Remember, prevention is always
the best medicine.
