Natural Factors MultiEnzyme 60 capsules

Natural Factors Multi Enzyme ...

This unique vegetarian formula works much like pancreatic enzymes and helps with protein, carbohydrate and fat digestion. Enzymes are molecules that speed up chemical reactions. This is extremely important in a vast number of body functions and is absolutely essential for healthy, comfortable digestion of food. The potency and strength of Multi Enzyme is given by stating the actual level of enzyme activity rather than the mg amount of the enzyme source, thereby ensuring the highest potency, quality control and effectiveness.

Bloating, heartburn and other signs of poor digestion plague many people. People take these digestive enzymes just before a meal to assist the digestive process. They work in the stomach and intestines to break down proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. When taken on an empty stomach, enzymes can act as potent anti-inflammatories and can help with weight management.

Natural Factors Full Spectrum Multi Enzyme is derived from plant enzymes and is completely vegetarian. Especially helpful when age or illness impairs digestion. This product is excellent for those requiring help with all aspects of digestion.

What are Enzymes?

Enzymes are catalysts of chemical reactions. This means that they initiate and increase the rate of one or several body processes. Without enzymes, reactions in the body would take place too slowly to maintain life. Digestive enzymes are responsible for breaking down food particles so that they can be absorbed in the intestinal tract and either used for energy or stored for later use.

There are three main categories of digestive enzymes, amylase, protease and lipase. Amylase enzymes digest sugars, for example, like milk sugar is digested by lactase and cane sugar by sucrase. Amylase is found in saliva, pancreatic juice and intestinal juice. Proteases are responsible for breaking down protein. It is found in intestinal and pancreatic juice. Lipases digest fat and are released in the stomach and intestines.
