Proteolytic Enzymes - Supporting Immunity, Cell Division and Blood Coagulation

 

Doctor's Best Proteolytic Enzymes is a potent formulation containing a broad spectrum of vegetarian proteolytic enzymes. Proteolytic enzymes function in the body to digest and break down proteins into their amino acid components. Supplementing with proteolytic enzymes facilities chemical reactions that support normal metabolic functions throughout the body. Delayed release vegetarian capsules help active ingredients to get into intestines for proper absorption and function to support overall immune system health.

 

Proteolytic Enzymes Composition

 

• Bromelain

Bromelain, a complex of enzymes in the stem and pineapple fruit, improves digestion, reducing the risk of indigestion and the lack of energy associated with it. Having an anti-inflammatory and anti-edema role, bromelain helps to restore tissues after post-operative and post-traumatic injuries and to maintain joint mobility.
Supporting digestion, protein absorption (provides support in limiting the manifestations associated with lack of energy or intolerance to some foods) and the process of metabolizing protein residues in different areas of the body.
Maintaining a normal intestinal transit (bromelain interacts with signaling pathways of the secretory glands; this may also support limiting the adhesion of disruptive factors to specific glycoprotein receptors located on the intestinal mucosa).
 

• Papain

Papain is a proteolytic enzyme extracted from the species Carica papaya (papaya). Its main role is to digest protein fiber in meat-based foods. Therefore, papain is one of the active ingredients present in digestive supplements.
Papain can break down complex protein molecules into smaller molecule proteins, peptides or even amino acids. The mechanism of action is to break the bonds inside the protein chain or at its end at different pH ranges. Thus, the digestive process is facilitated, and the absorption of nutrients from proteins is facilitated. The ability of papain to break down protein bonds is also useful in normalizing physiological processes, but also in slowing down the processes of certain pathologies.
 

• Amylase

Amylases are enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of starch in order to obtain simple and easily digestible sugars. Amylase is an enzyme produced in the pancreas and salivary glands, which converts starch, glycogen and bound polysaccharides into simple and easily digestible sugars. It is also present in bacteria, yeast and plants. Salivary amylase is produced by the parotid glands and is involved in the digestion of carbohydrates in the oral cavity.

Pancreatic amylase is produced by the pancreas and secreted in the gut to help digest food from cereals and potatoes (starch). A very small amount passes into the blood and is excreted in the blood.


 

• Lipase

The main action of lipase is the enzymatic support at the digestive, intestinal and pancreatic levels. Its role is to maintain an optimal permeability of the cell membrane, which allows nutrients to enter the cell and waste to be removed from it.

People with lipase deficiency may have one or more of the following conditions: hypercholesterolemia, hypertriglyceridemia, hypertension, weight loss, diabetes, glycosuria (urine sugar), varicose veins. At the same time, they may have problems assimilating fat-soluble vitamins: A, E, D. In industry it is used to facilitate the fermentation of dairy products and cheeses, this practice has been used since ancient times.
 

• Protease

Proteases are enzymes that act on the digestive tract by breaking down peptides at the amino acid level. They belong to the group of hydroxylases and can be of two types: exopeptidases (cleaves peptide bonds in which amino acids are located at the ends of polypeptide chains) and endopeptidases (cleaves peptide bonds inside polypeptide chains). The mechanism of action involves the hydrolysis of O-H peptide bonds. They play a role in protein digestion.
Protease is a group of enzymes that accelerate the chemical reactions associated with protein digestion and are produced in the pancreas, stomach, and small intestine. In addition to digesting proteins and breaking them down into amino acids, protease is also important for other processes, such as supporting immunity, cell division, blood clotting, or protein recycling. Protease is useful for the absorption of essential amino acids and can help people with digestive problems. Among other things, according to a 2009 study, a mixture of protease enzymes reduced pain and muscle sensitivity after training.
 

• Rutin

The routine has a wide action: antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anticarcinogenic (helps neutralize and eliminate carcinogens), anti-thrombotic, cytoprotective and vasoprotective.
Routine chelates (binds) and is very good for removing excess iron, especially in cases of asbestos poisoning. By strengthening the capillaries, routine can prevent strokes. Some studies indicate the effectiveness of the routine in treating venous endemism, especially in the legs, thus preventing the evolution of chronic venous diseases.
Through its cytoprotective action, Rutin is indicated for people with different degrees of intoxication with toxic chemical agents (from food, the environment or the workplace).
 

• Serratiopeptidase

This miraculous enzyme, Serrapeptase, is produced by a friendly bacterium found in silkworms. The bacterium responsible for this enzyme is called Serratia E15, also known as Serratia peptidase. The enzyme was discovered in the early 1970s and is now produced for commercial use through a fermentation process.
Serrapeptase enzyme is described as a proteolytic enzyme, being able to digest certain types of proteins. Amazingly, the enzyme attacks only certain forms of dead tissue, such as cysts, arterial plaques, and scarred tissue. Studies have also shown strong anti-inflammatory effects of this enzyme, with no inhibitory effects on prostaglandins manifested by pharmaceutical anti-inflammatory drugs. It helps reduce pain by blocking the release of pain-inducing amines from inflamed tissue.
