Digest-Zymes contains a comprehensive blend of enzymes to support healthy digestive function and to aid in the digestion of fats, proteins and carbohydrates, including fibre and lactose.
Poor digestion is one of the most common health complaints today. Several factors can contribute to the development of digestive issues, including poor eating habits (eating on the run and inadequate chewing of food) and poor dietary choices, such as excessive consumption of alcohol, refined carbohydrates and fat, and a diet low in raw foods. Raw foods contain enzymes which can help facilitate digestion.
Symptoms of poor digestion include indigestion and fullness lasting 2-4 hours after eating, bloating, excessive flatulence, abdominal cramps, alternating constipation and diarrhea, and undigested food in the stool.
Digestive enzyme supplementation can aid in the breakdown of fats, proteins and carbohydrates and may provide benefit in disorders in which compromised digestion may be involved1.
As a large percentage of Australians have diets that are typically low in enzymes (due to a predominance of processed, refined foods), the importance of digestive enzyme supplementation is especially relevant.
