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

Digestizyme® provides a broad spectrum of plant-sourced enzymes: lipase, protease, glucoamylase, cellulase, bromelain & papain. Digestizyme® is suitable for vegetarians. Digestive enzymes are secreted into the digestive tract to break down food matter into its component nutrients. These can then be absorbed across the gut wall into the bloodstream. If this enzyme system does not work effectively, there may be reduced absorption of nutrients. Also, undigested food passing into the large intestine can be fermented by the resident bacteria, causing flatulence, bloating & diarrhoea.  Digestive enzymes are secreted into the digestive tract to break down food matter into its component nutrients. These can then be absorbed across the gut wall into the bloodstream. If this enzyme system does not work effectively, optimal health cannot be maintained because of the failure to absorb the nutrients needed. Also, undigested food passing into the large intestine will be fermented by the resident bacteria, causing flatulence, bloating & diarrhoea. As we age, our natural production of enzymes declines & it is recognised that during illness enzyme production can be significantly reduced. In these situations a supplement providing suitable digestive enzymes can make a useful contribution to the smooth working of the digestion process. Digestizyme provides a broad spectrum of plant-sourced enzymes, which digest protein, fat & carbohydrate. The advantage of plant-sourced enzymes is that quality control is assured & contamination is significantly reduced compared with animal sources. We have chosen enzymes that are largely resistant to degradation caused by the highly acidic conditions in the stomach so that they will still be active when they reach the small intestine where most digestion takes place.
