Glutenzyme Plus
(cereal digesting enzyme complex)
Suitable for Vegans and
Vegetarians
Nutritional Supplement Recommended Intake One Glutenzyme capsule taken with any meal containing
wheat, oats, barley and rye. (Take with food preferably with the main meal) or
as professionally directed.
Allergen Information
1.
from soya
Contra-indications:
Glutenzyme is not
suitable for individuals with colitis, gastritis or ulcerative conditions of the
stomach or colon.
In individuals with coeliac disease other factors must be considered and
avoidance of cereals containing gluten may be advisable.
Many people rely on cereals as part of
their diet and their avoidance is often difficult, in particular when
eating out. Wheat, rye, barley and oats are commonly added to every day
foods. These cereals contain a protein called gluten.
Glutenzyme Plus is a digestive enzyme
complex specifically designed to break down the gluten proteins in
cereals and grains. However, people with coeliac disease should still
avoid eating the grains.
Features
Gluten protease hydrolyses proteins -
specifically gluten as found in wheat, barley, rye and oats
Amylase is required for the proper
digestion of carbohydrates
Cellulase helps digest fibre and
cellulose in food, thereby assisting with the release of nutrients
for absorption
L.brevis is a lactic acid forming
bacteria that may assist with the breakdown of gluten and other
proteins in cereals
Glutenzyme provides L.acidophilus to
maintain a healthy balance of intestinal microflora
L.acidophilus may assist normal
digestion and maintain healthy intestinal bacteria
Glutenzyme is stable against stomach
pH
Glutenzyme is able to retain digestive
capability over a wide range of pH variances
All enzymes are from vegetable sources
Suitable for vegetarians and vegans

Digestive Enzymes
Proper digestion is one of the body’s most important physiological functions in
maintaining overall health and wellness. Maintaining normal digestion aids in
proper absorption and elimination.
When digestion is incomplete or disordered, food and other nutritional
substances don’t break down and assimilate properly – so you can’t obtain their
full nutritional value. In addition, food molecules that have not been
completely digested can be inappropriately absorbed into the systemic
circulation, contributing to a variety of food associated disorders, such as
food intolerance. Incomplete digestion of proteins, fats and carbohydrates may
also contribute to nutritional deficiency.
Natural digestive enzymes and emulsifying agents are excellent aids to the
digestive and absorption processes.
Two important digestive enzymes are extracted from tropical fruits. Papain, from
papayas, has a mild, soothing effect on the stomach and helps aid in protein
digestion. Bromelain, from pineapple, also helps aid protein digestion.
Amylase digests starch and carbohydrates in foods such as potatoes, rice,
cereals, beans and all legumes. Amylase is produced by the salivary glands in
the mouth, by the pancreas and by the small intestine. Improper or incomplete
digestion of carbohydrates may cause a variety of symptoms such as bloatedness,
flatulence, low energy levels and other digestive problems. It may also reduce
the body’s ability to absorb nutrients from foods containing carbohydrates.
Lactase has been shown to be effective in breaking down milk sugar (lactose).
Lipase helps to break down fats in the diet to a more assimilable form which can
be absorbed by the body (i.e. into glycerol and fatty acids). Lipase is secreted
by the pancreas and the small intestine. Supplemental lipase may be helpful when
the diet is high in fats, placing a burden on the digestion. Fat-soluble
vitamins such as A, E, E and K are absorbed more efficiently from the gut along
with dietary fats. Carotenoids such as beta carotene and lycopene are absorbed
more efficiently with dietary fats.
Sucrase, maltase and lactase break down complex sugars into simple sugars.
