Description
Enzymes play a key role in the digestion of food.
They are responsible for chemical reactions that allow the transformation of macromolecules into smaller and better assimilable molecules.
Enzymes participate in all stages of the digestive process (mouth, stomach, intestine). Pancreatic enzymes deal with the digestion of proteins, lipids and carbohydrates, following which the assimilation of micronutrients takes place (especially in the small intestine).
This underlines the importance of optimal enzymatic production for an adequate digestive process to take place and to complete the breakdown of proteins, carbohydrates and lipids.
Enzymes allow you to draw maximum energy from your diet and prevent the intestine from being cluttered with undigested food residues. Deficiencies of specific enzymes are found in certain situations, and a supplementation of digestive enzymes can prove useful in supporting digestive function.
The enzymes present in the multi-enzymatic formulation Similase total are all of “fungal” origin
Similase Total contains dry extract of ginger rhizome (Zingiber officinale L.) which helps support digestive function. The ginger rhizome has played an important role in oriental medicines for over 1500 years and is suggested for numerous digestive tract ailments. In the United States, ginger has GRASS status (Generally recognized as safe) and included in the United States Pharmacopoeia (USP) and the National Formulary as a carminative (counteracts gas production), aromatic and stimulant.
The new formulation also contains dry ginger extract which supports digestive function.
