SpectraZyme Complete Enzymes by Metagenics

SpectraZyme Complete provides digestive support with a non-GMO, broad spectrum of non-animal-derived enzymes including acid stable lipase and three proteases that function in different pH ranges. This comprehensive enzyme complex is designed to support the healthy digestion of proteins, peptides, carbohydrates, fats, cellulose, maltose, lactose, and sucrose.* What are enzymes? Enzymes are biological catalysts that are essential for the breakdown of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates into smaller pieces in order to facilitate absorption by the body; in other words, enzymes are essential for healthy digestion. A variety of enzymes is required to digest food and assimilate nutrients; how well we digest any particular food is dependent on the quantities and types of enzymes the body produces. Enzyme secretion generally declines with age, and genetics can negatively influence digestive enzyme production as well. In addition to maintaining healthy lifestyle habits and including raw, enzyme-rich foods in the diet, digestive enzyme supplementation can be helpful to support healthy digestion.*
