ELEMENTS Digestive Enzymes

The ELEMENTS Digestive Enzymes product features the branded DigeZyme® digestive enzyme complex, which is plant-based and free from animal origin. It includes:

• α-amylase, which helps in the digestion of carbohydrates and starch,
• Neutral protease, for the digestion of proteins,
• Lactase, which aids in the digestion of lactose,
• Lipase, involved in fat digestion,
• Cellulase, which breaks down cellulose.

This product is designed to support digestion and improve the absorption of nutrients from food. The DigeZyme® complex is owned by Sabinsa Corp.

ELEMENTS Digestive Enzymes come in special capsule shells that protect the enzymes from the acidic environment of the stomach. This is important because, for the enzymes to function properly, they must reach the small intestine intact, where they can perform their digestive roles. Without this protection, stomach acid could denature the enzymes, rendering them inactive. The enteric coating ensures that the enzymes are shielded from stomach acid and only activate in the small intestine, where they are needed most. This is an important consideration when comparing to other products on the market.
