Do you eat on the run? Eat while you watch TV? Overeat? Or consume a diet high in fat, carbohydrate, or protein?

In recent decades, our modern fast-paced high-stress lifestyles tend to lead to improper digestion. Stress and anxiety trigger hormone releases that interfere with smooth muscle contraction and enzyme secretion, leading to indigestion. This is further compounded by the tendency to eat on the run and to overeat. Because hurried eating results in partially chewed foods being dumped into the digestive tract, the tendency to eat on the run results in food not being properly mixed with salivary enzymes and to be in such large pieces that digestive enzymes can not adequately act on the food.

Overeating causes more nutrients to be consumed than what the average human digestive system can handle. These issues can combine to overwhelm the body's ability to completely digest consumed meals, which can lead to digestive discomfort, constipation, and suboptimal nutrient uptake.

Moreover, a person's ability to properly digest and absorb their food decreases with age. This reduction in digestive capacity can be improved through enzyme supplementation. Enzymes are proteins that break down food into their basic building blocks; carbohydrates to simple sugars, proteins to amino acids and fats to glycerol and triglycerides. These simple components are then absorbed into your system and used to build new molecules your body needs. While enzymes occur naturally in our bodies and in many plants, they can be destroyed by pesticides, pollution, some processes used to cook or irradiate foods, and chemical additives.

Enzygen Plus was designed specifically to support digestion in people who eat the typical modern diet, which is high in protein, fat, and carbohydrates. It contains a proprietary blend of proteolytic, lipolytic, and carbohydrolytic enzymes specifically designed to aid the digestion of these nutrient dense meals. Supplemental enzymes also help assure that the maximum amount of available nutrition is obtained from the food eaten. In addition, a variety of botanical ingredients were added to provide general nutritional support.

In essence, Enzygen Plus replenishes your enzyme supply to help your body break down fats, carbohydrates and proteins. It promotes proper digestion and helps convert foods to useful nutrients.

Formulated with only vegetable-derived enzymes, Enzygen Plus stimulates the release of essential nutrients from food that are critical for cellular regeneration.
