Digestive Enzymes Overview
Enzymes are complex proteins that are the biological tools the digestive system uses to break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates from ingested food into smaller molecules your body can use. However, enzymes are specialists and can be categorized into one of four main groups: proteases digest only proteins; lipases digest only fats; amylases, only carbohydrates and sugars; fiber digesting enzymes such as cellulase and pectinase, only fibers.
With each meal, your body senses the amount of protein, fat, and carbs and makes an enzyme blend that is perfect for that meal's digestion. As people age they tend to make fewer enzymes, which slows digestion and causes unpleasant symptoms. Enzyme supplements restore digestive power, but their effectiveness for an individual depends on their formulation.
