Digestion is a vital process necessary for the breakdown and
absorption of nutrients needed for basic health. Peter Gillham
formulated Digestion Essentials in order to help eliminate
digestive problems. Its regular use will ensure that you get the
most out of your daily food intake as well as your nutritional
supplementation.
Enzymes act as catalysts to accelerate the
rate of chemical reactions in the body. They are living
biochemical factors that activate and carry out all the
biological processes of the body, including digestion.
There
are three main types of digestive enzymes: protease, which
digests proteins; amylase, which digests carbohydrates; and
lipase, which digests fats.
Raw foods come complete with
their own sets of specifically combined enzymes to digest those
particular foods. Today, however, much of our food is cooked or
processed. Unfortunately, when enzymes are exposed to heat they
are no longer able to perform the function for which they were
designed. Eating enzyme-dead foods places a burden on the
pancreas and other organs, which overworks and eventually
exhausts them.
Additionally, levels of digestive enzymes may
be lowered as a result of taking contraceptive pills or other
medication, poor eating habits, or aging. When this happens,
enzyme depletion can result in digestive problems such as
being overweight gas bloatedness yeast
acid indigestion
over acidity fatigue
parasites elevated cholesterol
levels.
The key to absorption
Deficient enzyme levels can
be boosted by taking Digestion Essentials with each meal or
daily as needed.
Digestion is basically the chemical
breakdown of large molecules of food into smaller particles.
Digested molecules of food, water and minerals are absorbed from
the cavity of the upper intestine into the blood where they are
carried off in the bloodstream to other parts of the body for
storage or further chemical change.
If foods are not properly
digested, poor nutritional absorption can occur. This may result
in symptoms such as abdominal pain, bloating, dehydration and
fatigue, in addition to the problems caused by a deficiency of
specific nutrients. With Digestion Essentials, however, you can
have your cake and digest it too!
What's in Digestion
Essentials?
Betaine HCl: This enzyme is a source of
hydrochloric acid, which aids digestion by breaking down fats
and proteins into molecular form so that the body can assimilate
and utilize them. In addition, it creates a low pH in the
stomach, which destroys ingested bacteria and any other
microorganisms. It helps to maintain optimal health and avoid
malabsorption of food, as well as other serious health
conditions.
Glutamic Acid: Assists in breaking down food into
microscopic particles so that it can be digested and
assimi-lated. It is also one of the building blocks in protein
synthesis within the body. In addition, it is a precursor to the
synthesis of protein and fuel for the brain to
function.
Pepsin: An enzyme that helps in the digestive
action of breaking down protein so that the body can assimilate
and utilize the protein nutrient value of food.
Papain: An
enzyme from papaya that has the property of speeding up chemical
reactions within the cells. It contributes to the breakdown of
food into its molecular form so as to aid digestion and
assimilation of nutrients. It helps the body in performing all
necessary functions to ensure that it gets the most out of
food.
Mycozyme: Mycozyme is an enzyme combination that
performs multiple functions in the digestion of
food-particularly proteins and fats-and its assimilation and
utilization within the body.
In addition, mycozyme has a
widespread biological activity that assists the body to function
as it was designed to. In this regard, it can help avoid a
number of significant negative health conditions It is also a
good all-round digestive aid.
Ox Bile: Aids in the digestion
of food and the breakup and removal of cholesterol and fats.
Pancreatin: A digestive enzyme that helps digest proteins and
other nutrients for better assimilation and utilization by the
body. It is beneficial in minimizing inflammation of various
types, and aids in counteracting other digestive disturbances
such as gas, bloating, diarrhea and cramps.
A word from Peter
Gillham
As you can see, with this combination of enzymes we
have a superior product designed to get the body functioning as
it should.
With an improvement in digestion, there will be
all sorts of other side benefits occurring. As a result of the
digestion working better, more nutrition will be extracted from
the food and the better the body will function.
