Digestive and Systemic Enzymes |

Supplemental digestive enzymes have rapidly gained acceptance.
Supplemental systemic enzymes, which are not as well known, show
tremendous promise in treating many health conditions. Digestive and
systemic supplements contain the same types of enzymes, but differ in
three functional areas: when the supplement should be taken, the
composition of the protease blend and the potencies of the protease
used in the supplement.
Enzymes taken with food are completely dedicated to the digestive
process. However, enzymes taken on an empty stomach can be absorbed
intact into the bloodstream, where they appear to help restore and
maintain healthy blood and tissue functions. Although lipase and
amylase are occasionally recommended for systemic use, the research has
shown that proteolytic enzymes given on an empty stomach can have a
beneficial effect on immune and inflammatory processes.
Enzymes, Inc. uses different blends of the various acidic, alkaline and
neutral proteases, depending upon the intended purpose of each product.
It is well documented protease acts differently in the tissues of the
body than it does in the digestive tract. This means, to achieve
maximum health benefits, a different blend of proteases should be used
in systemic products compared to digestive products. Yet most other
systemic protease products on the market contain the same protease
blend found in digestive products. In addition, the amount of protease
needed for systemic activity is often much greater than that needed for
digestion.
pHysioProtease is a proprietary blend of proteases available
exclusively in select products distributed by Enzymes, Inc. Research
has shown that pHysioProtease has the precise combination of proteases
for optimal activity in the physiological conditions of the blood and
other tissues of the body and provides maximum patented systemic action.
A resent study comparing pHysioProtease with three commercially
available protease blends recommended for systemic use revealed
pHysioProtease provides up to 52 times more systemic enzyme activity
per dose.
