SpectraZyme - 180 Tablets

When you think about digestion, you may imagine food reaching the stomach and disintegrating in stomach acid. Now, while this is true, digestion actually starts before your meal even reaches your stomach. Your saliva contains enzymes that start breaking down or “pre-digesting” what you eat and drink.

In addition to these enzymes in your saliva, the food you eat also has enzymes in it. Unfortunately, if you don’t eat a lot of raw foods, you may not be getting enough of these to aid proper digestion. The processing and cooking of food destroys many of the enzymes that help your body digest it, increasing the workload on the rest of your digestive tract.

One way to help your body digest more effectively is to eat more raw foods with their enzymes still intact. Sometimes, this can be difficult, and digestive problems can result due to a deficiency in enzymes. An enzyme supplement like Metagenics’ SpectraZyme might be right for you in this case.

SpectraZyme contains a variety of enzymes, including three different protease enzymes your body needs in order to digest protein in your diet. Other enzymes in its formula include:

• Amylase, which is needed for the digestion of starches and carbohydrates
• Lipase, which your body uses to digest fats
• Cellulase, which is used to break down fiber into smaller pieces
• Lactase, which your body uses to digest dairy products

Each bottle of SpectraZyme by Metagenics contains 180 tablets, which is enough to last for one month if taken at the recommended dosage of two tablets with each meal. Consult with your health care practitioner about the dose that’s best for you, especially if you have any pre-existing digestive problems.
