WHY TAKE DIGESTIVE ENZYMES ?
As we age, our pancreas produces less and less digestive enzymes, from aging, stress, and heredity. It is estimated that 20 to 40% of all Americans suffer from non-ulcer dyspepsia. Most of these people lack sufficient digestive enzymes to properly digest an average meal. Many elderly people suffer from gas, bloating, and that uncomfortable “full” feeling after eating the same meals that, when younger, gave them no such problems. The discomfort of bad digestion leads many to eat insufficient amounts of food to avoid the discomfort. Diets high in processed and cooked foods deactivate natural digestive enzymes in food, stressing the pancreas which must produce large amounts of enzymes. There are many health problems associated with incomplete digestion, including malnutrition from insufficient breakdown of the nutrients in food to a state where they can be properly absorbed in to the blood and utilized by the body. In addition, the larger, incompletely broken down food particles may still
• To replace digestive enzymes lost during food processing and cooking. • To make sure that your food is completely digested and broken down into a form your body can assimilate • To supplement your own enzymes because as we age we make fewer enzymes • To feel better after you eat • To reduce digestive discomforts • To supply extra workers in the body to assist the immune system • To avoid auto-intoxication…when foods are not properly digested they sludge the lining of the intestines. This fecal matter starts to decay, producing bacteria and toxins which seep through the bowel wall and back into the blood stream. This can result in allergies, constipation, stomach bloat, gas, gas, fatigue, weight gain or loss, headache and much more. WHY TAKE AIM’S PrepZymes™ ? PrepZymes contain culture enzymes, which are a breakthrough in enzyme production. Most enzymes available are derived from animal organs, particularly the pancreas. Although these pancreatic enzymes can be valuable, they are in
