An Impressive Array of Enzymes
Let’s take a closer look at some of the key enzymes in VitaPost Digestive Enzymes:
Protein Enzymes:
Protease 1, Protease 2, Papain, Bromelain, Peptidase and Aspergillopepsin are all protein enzymes. Bromelain comes from the pineapple plant and fruit, and has been used traditionally for its health benefits in many Asian cultures. Papain is an extract of papaya fruit, and it’s composed of a range of enzymes that can digest proteins, starches and fats. Both bromelain and papain can be used to tenderize meat. The combination of peptidase and aspergillopepsin has been shown to support the digestion and proper breakdown of gluten. However, it’s important to note that Digestive Enzymes is not intended to prevent or treat any disease, including Celiac, Wheat Allergy or NCGS.
Carbohydrate Enzymes:
Amylase, Glucoamylase, Lactase, Beta Glucanase, and Invertase are carbohydrate enzymes. Amylase is an enzyme that digests starch, and your body naturally produces it in your gut and saliva. Starches, like in potatoes or rice, are available in excess in modern diets. Many sugars can be hard to digest, and those who avoid milk sugar (lactose) will be familiar with the problem. Lactase can support the digestion of lactose. Invertase helps break down table sugar into more easily digested glucose and fructose. The beta-glucans in mushrooms aren’t easily digestible, but beta-glucanase helps support their breakdown.
More Useful Enzymes:
Lipase, Cellulase, Hemicellulase, Xylanase, Pectinase, and Phytase are other enzymes found in Digestive Enzymes. Lipase is an enzyme that breaks down fats and oils, and can reduce the feeling of fullness after a fatty meal. Cellulase, hemicellulase, xylanase, and pectinase all support the breakdown of plant cell walls and other hard-to-digest fiber components of plants. Phytase is an enzyme that breaks down phytic acid and can support the normal absorption of iron.
