GREAT GUT REACTION
Statistics from a YouGov survey show that over 43% of the UK population suffers from some form of digestive discomfort, with men in particular, more likely to ignore their digestive health.
“Surprisingly, our body’s production of enzymes starts to reduce at around the age of 25 years old, and it’s thought lifestyle and poor diets are the cause,” says Tom Bohager, founder and operating CEO of Enzymedica.
“When people have depleted enzymes, they can suffer from chronic health conditions, ranging from: indigestion, heart burn, reflux, bloating, excessive wind and tummy aches.”
“Enzymes are proteins that help speed up biochemical reactions that occur in the body. If we didn’t have enzymes, these reactions would occur too slowly for us to survive!”
Every single second of every single day, millions of enzymatic conversions take place in the body to help with everything from processing food, absorbing nutrients to supporting the production of energy that enables our organs, tissues and body systems to function.
The body makes two types of enzymes: metabolic enzymes and digestive enzymes. Digestive enzymes are secreted throughout the digestive tract and help the body break down and absorb nutrients from our foods. Metabolic enzymes look after other body functions.
Tom continues: “Poorly digested proteins decompose in the gut, fats can become rancid and carbohydrates ferment. These undigested food particles can then leak into the bloodstream from the gut and create further toxicity, so the better we digest and break down our foods, the healthier we will be!”
“Digestive enzyme support shouldn’t only be considered for people with digestive issues but for those with chronic health issues – as many don’t realise having a digestive enzyme deficiency can put pressure on other enzyme resources in our body, reducing overall energy and weakening our immune system’s natural defences and other important functions.“
Enzymedica’s Digest Gold with Probiotics is a high potency formula and ideal for people with chronic health or digestive issues / indigestion. Featuring patented Thera-blend technology, the enzymes remain active throughout the entire digestive tract, rather than running out by the time they reach the small intestine (the area of critical need and unfortunately where most other digestive enzymes stop working). The probiotics contained in this formula also survive stomach acid and activate when they arrive where they are needed.
