Why Digestive Enzyme Supplementation Is Essential:

Digestive enzymes help facilitate digestion, the absorption of nutrients,
maintenance of proper pH in the gastrointestinal tract, and function as
a barrier against invasion of pathological organisms. There are several
basic types of digestive enzymes and each type of enzyme has a
specific activity and functions best within a specific pH range.

Facts About Enzymes and Their Related Functions:
amylase digests starches, cellulase digests fibers, lactase digests
dairy products, lipases digest fats, oils and triglycerides, maltase
digests starch and grains, proteases digest proteins and sucrase
digests sugars.

Some enzymes are extracted from animal sources such as the pancreas,
liver and stomach of cattle (bovine) or pigs (porcine). Examples of
animal enzymes include oxbile, trypsin, chymotrypsin, rennin, pepsin,
and pancreatin. Other digestive enzymes are derived from plants such
as bromelain from pineapple and papain from papaya.

Hydrochloric acid, which is produced in the parietal glands in the lining
of the stomach, is necessary for the digestion of proteins. Although
hydrochloric acid is not an enzyme, it is required to convert pepsinogen
to pepsin for the digestion of proteins. Betaine hydrochloride, which is
a form of hydrochloric acid that is derived from beets, is a source of
hydrochloric acid that is commonly referred to and utilized as a
digestive enzyme product.

Digestive enzymes work within a specific pH range. For example,
agents such as betaine hydrochloride, bromelain and papain, which
digest proteins, function primarily in the stomach where the environment
needs to be fairly acidic. Pancreatic enzymes exert their digestive effects
in the small intestines where the pH is more alkaline. Plant-based digestive
enzyme products reportedly function over a wider pH range (pH 2 to 12),
which enables them to function in both the stomach and the small intestine
environment.

Impaired digestive function can produce many symptoms and is associated
with a wide variety of clinical conditions such as gas, bloating, heartburn,
indigestion, malabsorption disorders, malnutrition, dysbiosis, leaky gut,
diarrhea, constipation, lactose intolerance, food allergies, celiac disease, etc.

Digestive enzymes in come from several sources. Some such as papain and
bromelain come from plants, and many are produced from
fungi and bacteria via fermentation processes.

There are many different types of digestive enzymes  Examples include
proteases such as bromelain and papain, lipase, amylase, lactase,
cellulase, pancreatin, and betaine hydrochloride.

Benefits:

    Facilitate digestion

    Regulate the absorption of nutrients

    Help maintain the proper pH in the gastrointestinal tract

    Act as a barrier against invasion of pathological organisms

It is generally believed that aging results in a gradual reduction in individual's
ability to secrete gastric hydrochloric acid and pancreatic enzymes for
digestive purposes.

Safety:
Digestive enzyme products are considered safe when used in accordance
with proper dosing guidelines.

Gas:
Administration of pancreatic enzymes resulted in a significant reduction of
gas following the ingestion of high calorie, high fat meals.
