DESCRIPTION
In digestion, enzymes liberate and break down nutrients from food that become the building blocks for cell growth and regeneration. Proper enzyme levels are crucial to a healthy body. In order to provide a balanced blend of specific enzymes and help break down foods in digestion, Enzygen® Plus contains a wide variety of unique enzymes that aid in digestion. The enzymes found in Enzygen® Plus help break down various types of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins to help convert food into useful nutrients for the body. Additionally, Enzygen® Plus helps to promote proper digestion and helps the stomach maintain proper acidity.
The five basic categories of enzymes include lipase for breaking down oils and fats, cellulase to break down fibers, amylase for breaking down starches, lactase for dairy products, and protease to break down proteins.
There are many different enzymes in Unicity's proprietary blend of enzymes found in Enzygen® Plus. These include different forms of amylase, protease, lipase, catalase, lactase, cellulase, hemicellulase, invertase, peptidase, bromelain, papain, superoxide dismutase, beta-glucanase, and phytase.1
BENEFITS AND RESEARCH
Our bodies need proper levels of active enzymes in order to conduct a variety of tasks, including digestion. While enzymes occur naturally in our bodies and in plants, they can be destroyed by pesticides, pollution, processes used to cook or irradiate foods, and chemical additives. Enzygen® Plus supplements your enzyme supply to help your body break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Enzymes convert foods to useful nutrients, and complete proper digestion.
Enzymes are natural substances created in plant, animal and human cells, and they play a vital role in digestion. There are more than 2,700 identified enzymes in the human body, and each affects a unique chemical reaction. The body relies on properly functioning enzymes to assist with breathing, digestion, growth, blood coagulation, sensory perception, reproduction, and other functions.
Enzygen® Plus contains a wide variety of enzymes and other ingredients that may aid digestion by breaking down food in the digestive system, stimulating the release of essential nutrients from food.1
