Enzyme Complex

Description

What are enzymes?

Enzymes are proteins that speed up most biochemical reactions in the body. Without these essential macromolecules, reactions occur at a slow rate to keep the body alive. Depending on the type, enzymes increase muscle mass, destroy toxins and help optimally digest food particles during digestion.

These are produced naturally in the body, but their effectiveness can be reduced by certain conditions, increased body temperature or chemical compounds. Digestive enzymes are essential in the proper functioning of the digestive system. Most are in the pancreas, stomach and small intestine, but they are also secreted by the salivary glands. Their role in digestion is vital, helping the body to digest food more efficiently, using less energy.

When to use enzyme supplements?

To get optimal results, you need to use dietary supplements correctly. First, daily administration for a maximum of six months is recommended. This is the period when the digestive system corrects its enzyme secretion. For enzyme supplements to work, they must come into contact with food. Take one bottle a day, during the meal.

If you want optimal results, it is recommended to use the type of enzymes compatible with the ingested food. For example, lactose is recommended for dairy consumption.

What types of enzymes are there?

Most supplements contain multiple types of enzymes to provide multiple benefits to your body. However, it is good to know the most important types of enzymes and their action in the body:

• Amylase – is the enzyme produced by the salivary glands and the pancreas, which converts starch into maltose and glucose.
• Protease or proteolytic enzymes are secreted by the pancreas and glands in the lining of the digestive tract.
• Lipase is an enzyme secreted by the pancreas that breaks down triglycerides into fatty acids.
• Lactase is the enzyme produced by the intestinal mucosa that allows the assimilation of lactose.
• Cellulase is an enzyme produced by fungi or bacteria that breaks down cellulose and polysaccharides.
