When you hear of digestive enzymes, digestion is probably the first thing that comes to mind. After all, these enzymes work hard to help break down everything—from carbohydrates in your breakfast pan de sal to the protein in your juicy steak, and fats in your creamy butter spreads. However, while their primary role involves processing the food you eat, these enzymes offer more benefits than just aiding in digestion.

How Can Digestive Enzymes Help You?

Here are some of the benefits of having enough digestive enzymes:

1. Improves Sleep Quality
   Studies show that people who take digestive enzymes not only experience less stomach discomfort but also sleep better.^1,2 Additionally, they notice an overall boost in their quality of life. Digestive enzymes work by addressing the digestive issues tied to functional dyspepsia. With bloating, gas, and indigestion under control, it becomes much easier to relax and enjoy a full night of uninterrupted sleep.
    
2. Reduces Inflammation
   Certain digestive enzymes, such as proteases, play an essential role in controlling inflammation inside the body.³ They regulate molecules that either trigger or stop inflammation, depending on what the body needs to heal. Other than that, they also keep inflammation from becoming chronic (a condition where inflammation persists over a long period).
    
3. Helps Improve Your Mood
   Digestive enzymes can have a positive impact on emotional well-being due to their essential role in supporting a healthy gut microbiome (community of bacteria that lives in your digestive system).⁴ The gut and brain communicate through the gut-brain axis (a pathway that allows signals to flow between the two organs). As a result of this connection, the condition of your gut can directly influence your emotional state.
    
4. Helps with Malabsorption and Malnutrition
   Malnutrition (undernutrition) is caused by a lack of nutrients, either as a result of a poor diet or problems absorbing nutrients from food. Certain things can increase your risk of becoming malnourished.⁵ These causes include aging, social issues (such as living alone or not having enough access to healthy food), chronic diseases (like diabetes or heart disease), and taking multiple medications which can affect appetite and digestion.⁵
   
   That is why, it's essential to support proper digestion to get essential nutrients from every meal. That is where digestive enzymes come into play. Digestive enzymes, such as lipase (for fats), amylase (for carbohydrates), and protease (for proteins), can help break down food into usable nutrients.^6,7
    
5. Aids People with Pancreatic Disorders
   For individuals who’ve had pancreatic surgery, digestion can become challenging since their body no longer produces enough enzymes.⁸ Again, these enzymes are needed to break down food properly, and without them, symptoms like weight loss, indigestion, bloating, and discomfort after eating can occur. Fortunately, pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy (PERT) can help replace these missing enzymes.⁹
    

A Revolutionary Enzyme Supplement

Given the powerful benefits of digestive enzymes, you may be considering incorporating them into your routine. However, while you can get enzymes from your food, it’s often challenging to meet your body’s needs through diet alone.

Enzymax Forte^® is a cutting-edge supplement that can help fill the gap and provide your digestive system with the support it deserves.

Here are reasons why this supplement is different from the rest!¹⁰

1. Helps with Frequent Indigestion ( Functional Dyspepsia).
   Enzymax Forte^® can assist in relieving functional dyspepsia or chronic indigestion symptoms associated with digestive enzyme deficiencies or imbalances.¹⁰
    
2. Pork-Free Digestive Enzymes
   Enzymax Forte^® contains pork-free enzymes. Compared to animal-based enzymes, enzymes sourced from microorganisms are typically more active and stable.¹⁰
    
3. Eight (8) Enzymes in One Product
   Studies show that pairing digestive enzyme supplements with an enzyme-riched diet can help reduce the size of food particles twice as fast compared to mere intake of food without a supplement.¹⁰
    
4. Assists in Breaking Down Food
   Enzymax Forte^® is a digestive enzyme supplement that works in the stomach and intestines. Moreover, it helps break down food into smaller, easier-to-digest pieces.
   The outer capsule releases enzymes in the stomach to start the process. On the other hand, the inner capsule dissolves in the intestines to continue breaking down food into even smaller particles, which helps improve nutrient absorption.

Ask your healthcare provider how Enzymax Forte^® can help support your gut health and digestion.

Suggested use of Enzymax Forte^® is one (1) to two (2) capsules to be taken at the start of the main meal, or as prescribed by a doctor.
