Platinum Naturals Super Digestive Enzymes

Digestive enzymes help breakdown food
Digestive enzymes help to break down food, so that your body can absorb the nutrients in the food. These enzymes are naturally found in foods. Unfortunately, cooking and processing foods can destroy many of the enzymes. The longer and higher the temperature you cook the food, the more enzymes you will destroy. Your body also produces digestive enzymes. However, today we eat too much processed or cooked foods, so our bodies are not able to produce enough enzymes for thorough digestion.

Super Digestive Aid contains a complete range of digestive enzymes plus fruit enzymes, to ensure that it will work for most people and for a wide range of diets. It is especially effective for the North American diet that is full of simple and complex carbohydrates, various sugars and meats.

Nutrient absorption
Holistic health professionals have a saying: "You are what you absorb" rather than "you are what you eat." Eating nutritious food is only helpful if your body can absorb the nutrients contained in it. Digestive enzymes are necessary to breakdown food so that your body can better absorb the nutrients.

Immune system and allergies
Your immune system has to work to remove toxins from your body. When your immune system is constantly overworked, it can eventually breakdown leading to various diseases and allergies.

Gas & bloating
Foods can ferment in your colon, producing toxins and leading to gas and bloating. Digestive enzymes can be used to help digestion, gas and bloating, and excess flatulence.
