Enzyme boost formula

Enzymes are a part of every metabolic process in the body - they are also important in the proper functioning of the immune system. Enzymes, or the lack thereof, can be related to almost every known disease. Enzymes not only play a role in digestion, but also during disease and other metabolic processes.

Why you benefit from this formula

We formulated this supplement with great care taken with the actual formulation in relation to content and quantities, and have included the following ingredients.

Enzymes used

  • Protease
    • It is used to break down amino acids, and make them available to the body, and this important compound is also being used in therapies such as oncology, inflammatory conditions and immune control.

    • It is also valuable in assisting the body to fight infections and onslaughts from viruses, fungi, parasites and bacteria. Protease from aspergillis (Aspergillus Niger / Aspergillus oryzae) may also be able to assist in breaking down dietary proteins and polypeptides which have leaked into the bloodstream as food antigens.

    • For more information on protease please click here.

  • Amylase
    • It is required to digest carbohydrates (polysaccharides) into smaller units (disaccharides), and eventually converting them into even smaller units (monosaccharides) such as glucose.

    • Amylase is also involved in anti-inflammatory reactions such as those caused by the release of histamine and similar substances.

    • For more information on amylase please click here.

  • Lipase
    • It is required in the digesting of fats and lipids, and they are more difficult to break down since they have to be carried by a water based transport system - the blood and lymph.

    • Although fat digestion is not concentrated in the stomach, gastric lipase is the digestant to attend to this, and will digest egg yolk and cream, since they are already emulsified fats. In order for fat to be digested properly, the liver starts this process emulsifying the large fat molecules, and bile breaks it down to small droplets, allowing the lipase to start its work.

    • For more information on lipase please click here.

  • Lactase
    • It is required the digestion of milk and milk products.

    • Some people do not produce enough lactase and are often referred to as lactose intolerant, and symptoms may include cramps, gas as well as diarrhea.

    • It has also been suggested that lactose intolerant people have a problem with calcium absorption, and this may also need to be checked, by a lactose intolerant person.

    • For more information on lactase please click here.

Enzymes

  • All our organs, tissues and cells are all run by metabolic enzymes, in other words all the processes necessary for life are mediated by enzymes. 

    • Minerals, vitamins, and hormones need enzymes to be present in order to do their work properly. Enzymes are the labor force of the body.

  • Enzymes break down toxic substances so that the body can eliminate them without damaging the eliminative organs.

  • Our foods are enzyme-deficient, causing imbalances in our organs, acting as a predisposing cause of disease

  • For more information on enzymes in general please click here.

Enzymes and their relationship to disease

  • Enzymes not only play a role in digestion, but also during disease and other metabolic processes.

  • Because enzymes are a part of every metabolic process in the body - they comprise an important part of the proper functioning of the immune system. Enzymes can be related to almost every known disease.

  • Enzymes act as scavengers in the body. 

    • They latch onto foreign substances and convert them to a disposable form. They also prevent the arteries from clogging up and joints from becoming gummed up.

  • It was previously thought that the pancreas produced all of these enzymes, it is now known that the pancreas could not produce the volume and variety of enzymes required by the body.

  • Enzymes are used up daily in the process of digestion and are lost in the sweat, urine and feces. 

    • Most cells and tissues of the body produce enzymes. 

    • The body must supply a large amount of digestive enzymes because the heating process destroys a large amount of the enzymes that were once present in the food during cooking.

  • It is important to remember that enzymes in raw food aid in the digestive process and that their action removes the stress of having to borrow them from the body's own reserve, particularly from the white blood cell count.

  • White blood cells are a crucial part of our immune system and their optimal activity is essential for the body to provide maximal defense against the invasion of micro-organisms that potentially cause disease. 

    • During the course of a chronic disease the immune system shows signs of depletion of enzymes.

  • Our enzyme levels must be maintained at any expense to ensure vitality, endurance, and to prevent disease. 

    • If our diet does not provide the enzymes required, it is imperative that they are supplied from an external source, such as Zest for Life Enzymes.

  • Enzyme deficiencies can be the cause of circulatory diseases, high blood pressure and other blood vessel related problems. 

    • In particular the enzyme lipase is involved in these diseases.

    • Lipase is the enzyme that digests, dissolves and helps break down fats throughout the body.

    • Some researchers have found individuals who had arteriosclerosis, high blood pressure and slow fat absorption to be deficient in lipase.

  • Fat that is not properly digested may be absorbed in the incompletely digested state and cause disease.

    • The more digestion that takes place before food reaches the small intestine, the better for the integrity, strength and immunity of the whole body. If the food ingested does not contain sufficient enzymes, the body will be stressed to provide these enzymes. 

    • A food supplement of enzymes can prevent this occurring.

  • Enzymes may be used not only to maintain health, but also during detoxification programs. 

    • Enzymes can be used in both medical and non-medical approaches to healing.

  • They can be the support system to all systems and to health-promotion processes. 

    • Since digestion takes place in the stomach and in the small intestine, enzymes that have activity in both these areas of the gastrointestinal tract will aid the body more than enzymes that work just in one section of the digestive tract.

  • The stomach and small intestine have different pH values; this means that enzymes or combinations of enzymes that are active over a wide pH range are the most beneficial.

    • The enzymes combined in the Zest for Life Enzyme Boost Formula, are active over the entire pH range experienced in these two regions.

    • The enzymes in Zest for Life Enzymes Boost Formula are capable of breaking down, digesting food elements throughout the entire digestive tract.

  • When digestion is sluggish or the enzyme level is low, as is often found in the elderly, the food ferments and causes gas, bloating, constipation, colitis and other problems.
