Welcome to the Enzymes, Inc. product page! We offer three lines of enzyme-based nutritional supplements to health care practitioners, as well as three lines for health conscious consumers.

All digestive enzyme supplements and systemic enzyme supplements from Enzymes, Inc. contain only vegetarian enzyme supplements grown from Aspergillus oryzae microbial, fungal cultures. Vegetarian enzyme supplements are far superior to animal or plant enzymes in many ways.

The most notable distinction between our vegetarian enzymes and the plant enzymes, -bromelain (from the pineapple) and papain (from the papaya) - is the limited digestive activity of the plant enzymes. Both bromelain and papain focus entirely on protein-digestion, offering no assistance with carbohydrate, fat and fiber. In addition, commercially-grown pineapple and papaya are generally exposed to environmental contamination, including pesticides, preservatives and growth-enhancers.

Also, vegetarian enzymes are optimally active through a wide range of pH conditions in the body. Papain and bromelain are fully activated at temperatures only at substantially higher pH levels.

In addition to plant enzymes, animal enzymes (usually derived from the pancreatic tissue of pigs) pale in comparison to vegetarian enzyme supplements from Enzymes, Inc.

Vegetarian enzyme supplements can provide greater digestive or systemic activity per capsule or tablet than animal enzyme supplements. Enzymes, Inc. vegetarian enzymes are more concentrated than animal enzymes, so more activity is included in each capsule or tablet. This results in fewer capsules taken at one time.

As in plant enzymes, animal enzymes function only in a limited “window” of pH temperatures of the body. For example, the enzyme pepsin only functions in the high acidity of the lower stomach, and pancreatin, trypsin and chymotrypsin can only digest food in the alkaline pH of the intestines – far too late in the digestive process to obtain optimal benefit from supplementation.

Also, vegetarian enzymes are cultivated in a controlled environment, free of contaminants. Animal enzymes are commercially obtained from slaughterhouse animals, usually pigs, which may have received steroids, antibiotics, etc. or have been fed pesticide-laced, genetically altered feed.

When choosing an enzyme supplement for yourself or a patient, select superior quality, broad-spectrum, vegetarian enzyme supplements from one of the Enzymes, Inc. product lines.
