Vega digestive enzymes formula provides a combination of enzymes that may help in the breakdown of foods such as fats, proteins, starches & fibre. Digestive enzymes are secreted in various parts of the gastro-intestinal tract, helping to digest & breakdown food & unlocking vital nutrients that are then absorbed into the blood stream. Various factors can affect the bodys capacity to manufacture these enzymes, which may lead to poor digestion & malabsorption of nutrients. The bodys ability to produce enzymes may decrease with ageing; hence a supplement may be of benefit to the elderly. Various foods can provide a source of enzymes; however they must be consumed raw as heat can destroy the enzymes. Suggested Use Adults
