Conversely, more thorough digestion of foodstuffs with enzymes prevents foods from being fermented in the gut and the proliferation of \"bad\" bacteria and yeast at the expense of \"good\" intestinal bacteria. More complete digestion of carbohydrates removes the food source for these bad organisms. Another benefit of enzymes is that more nutrition can be derived from food.

In addition, an estimated 30% of Americans suffer from low levels of acidity. The depletion of stomach acidity due to medications and age are further compounded by the age-related decline of enzyme production which both influence the breakdown of foods into absorbable nutrients. This can lead to suboptimal nutritional status of certain vitamins and minerals and insufficient enzyme activation in the stomach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnzyme Blend\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDigestive enzymes have a long history of use for those who need digestive enzyme support. In the past, animal enzymes were preferred to vegetable enzymes for their protein digesting strength though they required a narrower pH window of 6.5-7.5 in order to be activated. Digestzyme-V utilizes plant-based enzymes which function within a broader pH range of 2.5-8.5 and still offer the digestive strength of animal-based enzymes. This broad pH window of activity makes it especially helpful for individuals with lower gastric acid or inconsistent pH levels. Each enzyme has been tested in pH, temperature, and gastric survivability studies to ensure enzyme activity. The blend of proteases in Digestzyme-V is effective in breaking down proteins from soy, whey, and casein from milk products. Lipases for fat breakdown as well as amylases for carbohydrate breakdown are also included for full-spectrum digestive support.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSustaining a Plant-Rich Diet\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDigestzyme-V offers additional support for those who have difficulty digesting plant-based foods. Optimal breakdown of plant cell walls is complex and nutrients contained within the cell walls can be difficult to absorb; for this reason, CereCalase\u003csup\u003e®\u003c\/sup\u003e, pectinase, xylanase, cellulose, glucoamylase and alphagalactosidase, plant enzymes not produced in the body, are added to the formula.

Alpha-galactosidase is also included for difficult-to-digest foods such as beans, legumes, and cruciferous vegetables, to help people maintain a plant-rich diet. Both animal and human trials indicate that the supplementation of phytase helps release these nutrients and improve the nutrition of the consumer. Furthermore, a large portion of the fibrous components of botanicals are composed of non-starchy polysaccharides (NSPs), the primary ones being hemicelluloses and beta-glucans. These two compounds can alter the transit times of foods, bind digestive enzymes, and trap essential plant constituents. Enzymes which degrade these components have been shown to improve the digestibility and nutrient profiles of plant foods and products. Gentian and artichoke are also added to help stimulate the body’s own digestive processes to help achieve optimal digestive capacity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGentian Root and Artichoke\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHerbalists have used bitters, including gentian, to stimulate natural digestive enzymes in the mouth and stomach for hundreds of years.

Artichoke also increases the surface area of fats, which allows enzymes to more efficiently break them down.

Digestzyme-V utilizes plant-based enzymes which function within a broader pH range of 2.5-8.5 and still offer the digestive strength of animal-based enzymes. This broad pH window of activity makes it especially helpful for individuals with lower gastric acid or inconsistent pH levels. Each enzyme has been tested in pH, temperature, and gastric survivability studies to ensure enzyme activity. The blend of proteases in Digestzyme-V is effective in breaking down proteins from soy, whey, and casein from milk products.

Both animal and human trials indicate that the supplementation of phytase helps release these nutrients and improve the nutrition of the consumer. Furthermore, a large portion of the fibrous components of botanicals are composed of non-starchy polysaccharides (NSPs), the primary ones being hemicelluloses and beta-glucans. These two compounds can alter the transit times of foods, bind digestive enzymes, and trap essential plant constituents.

Fibrinolytic enzymes, such as plasmin, produced in the endothelial cells are responsible for ensuring proper blood flow. However, production of these enzymes decreases with age, which can result in increased fibrin levels. Nattokinase also inhibits a key enzyme resulting in arterial dilation to help maintain healthy blood pressure levels, and can generate tissue plasminogen activators helping to promote blood flow. Because it is a highly purified extract derived from soybeans, supplementing nattokinase differs from consuming soybeans in that nattokinase escapes the typical breakdown by digestive enzymes, and is absorbed and taken into the body directly from the small intestine to exert its effects in the plasma.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNattokinase is a powerful enzyme used to support normal blood flow, circulation, and blood pressure levels. Derived from a highly purified extract of the traditional Japanese food natto, nattokinase is a natural, highly active enzyme that helps promote normal levels of fibrin. Fibrin is a filamentous protein formed in blood, which can accumulate along blood vessel walls and affect blood flow. Research has shown nattokinase closely resembles plasmin, the only endogenous enzyme that directly dissolves fibrin. It is thought to increase the body’s production of plasmin. Nattokinase has been shown to support activation of many of the body’s 3,000 endogenous enzymes. In addition, while many of the agents involved in promoting healthy blood flow and coagulation either have limitations, and or serious side effects, this formulation of Nattokinase has a potent support activity that lasts for an 8-12 hour period and is safe for long-term use. Each capsule of Nattokinase contains 100 mg of nattokinase.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSuggested Use:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1 soft gel capsule two times per day or as recommended by your health care professional.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBENEFITS\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eResearch\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDiscovered by Dr. Hiroyuki Sumi, nattokinase has been shown to help keep blood flowing normally. In a study on the effect of nattokinase on blood flow in the common carotid artery, animals treated with nattokinase regained 62% of their blood flow, while animals given plasmin regained 15.8%, and 0% was regained with elastase. Researchers concluded that in this in vivo model, the circulation supporting activity of nattokinase was stronger than that of plasmin or elastase. Other in vitro studies revealed nattokinase caused a significant, dose-dependent decrease of red blood cell aggregation and low-shear viscosity, effects which were evident at concentrations similar to those achieved with in vivo animal trials. Researchers have also confirmed the presence of unique compounds that inhibit angiotensin converting enzymes (ACE) within nattokinase, which supports healthy arterial blood pressure.
