Complex formula for enzymatic support of digestion and absorption of nutrients by synergistic action in the stomach, small intestine, colon, liver and pancreas.

NOW Optimal Digestive System provides a mixture of enzymes that will help digest most foods, including beans and cruciferous vegetables. The vegetarian enzymes in this product were tested in a controlled laboratory study using a digestive model by the Dutch Organization for Applied Scientific Research to demonstrate their activity in the entire pH range of the digestive system.

 

Optimal Digestive System Composition

 

• Diastasis

It breaks down starch and carbohydrates into simple sugars such as maltose and dextrin, which are then converted, under the action of other enzymes, into glucose, which is the main source of energy for the human body.

Because it is found in human saliva, diastase triggers the process of chemical digestion. Thus, certain foods, such as potatoes or rice, which have high concentrations of starch and low concentrations of sugar, may appear sweet when chewed for a long time. The best known enzymes in the diastase class are α-amylase and β-amylase. Of the two, the one produced by the human body is α-amylase. This is one of the most important enzymes in the human body, and its optimal pH of action is 6.7-7.0. Diastase also has a role in supporting immune processes, being useful in eliminating substances with allergenic potential and in modulating (regulating) processes. inflammatory.
 

• 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, difficulty losing weight, diabetes, glycosuria (urine sugar), varicose veins. At the same time, they may have problems in assimilating fat-soluble vitamins: A, E, D. In industry it is used to facilitate the fermentation of dairy products and cheeses, this practice being used since ancient times. In the medical industry it is used as a method of analysis. medical. After a pancreatic lesion, lipase appears in the circulation at about the same time as amylase, but remains elevated for a longer period than this (7-10 days). Serum lipase is usually normal in patients without pancreatic involvement, but who have elevated amylase associated with peptic ulcer, salivary adenitis, inflammatory bowel disease, intestinal obstruction.
 

• Alpha d-Galactosidase

Abdominal discomfort: Alpha D-galactosidase is used to prevent abdominal discomfort induced by consuming products that contain hard-to-digest carbohydrates. The body's ability to metabolize these compounds correctly is given by the amount of enzyme in the digestive tract.

Fabry disease: is a rare metabolic disorder, found especially in men. It is caused by the accumulation of fat inside the blood vessels due to alpha galactosidase deficiency. It can affect the systems: kidney, heart, brain, eye. It can be kept under control with enzymatic treatment, but, in its absence, the evolution is serious, with death at the age of a young adult.



 

Optimal Digestive System Benefits

 

• proper functioning of the digestive system and support a normal appetite
• support for limiting the manifestations in case of deficiencies of hydrochloric acid, digestive enzymes, unbalanced diet, difficult chewing.
• support of the action of pancreatic lipase; provides support in supporting normal hepatic bile secretion, with a role in emulsifying lipids
• supporting the absorption of vitamin B12, fat-soluble vitamins, iron, calcium, magnesium and zinc
• maintaining the physiological pH at the gastric level
• supporting the reduction of digestive manifestations, ENT, broncho-pulmonary, urogenital, cutaneous, osteoarticular, vascular, by maintaining the normal number of proinflammatory cytokines and by supporting the synthesis of prostaglandins, with action to support the structure and health of the digestive mucosa
• maintaining normal blood flow and circulation by promoting the reduction of platelet aggregation (intervenes on the action of fibrin, a protein found in the blood and lymph and formed from fibrinogen during blood clotting)
• supporting the normal process of tissue regeneration
• support for the reduction of vascular and neurological manifestations associated with the increase of blood glucose (maintains the normal level of advanced glycosylation products - AGEs)

 

Suggested use
