I get a lot of digestive
disturbances, will enzymes help me?
People that are enzyme deficient experience disturbed digestion.
They report a bloated, uncomfortable feeling after eating particular
foods. This could be a sign that there are insufficient enzymes to
help digest those foods. Many foods contain complex sugars. If these
sugars cannot be broken down, they will sit in the large intestine
and putrefy. This causes that bloated feeling and gas. Enzymes can
assist as they help to break down the food that we eat.

When do I take enzymes?
Take the enzymes just before or during your meals. They can also be
taken in between meals.
Top |
What type of digestive
disturbances do enzymes help?
They help heartburn, indigestion, flatulence, and the processing of
our foods.Top |
Are there other ways to help
indigestion, gas and bloating?
Yes, one of the best things you can do for yourself is to make sure
you chew your food thoroughly and drink lots of water each day.
Top |
Should I take antacids?
This is a personal choice. Antacids neutralize the hydrochloric acid
that your stomach makes to break down proteins. Without sufficient
hydrochloric acid you can't completely digest meats, fish, beans and
soy.Top |
What is Elite-Zyme Ultra?
Elite-Zyme Ultra is a high activity and comprehensive blend of
digestive enzymes in a broad pH range to aid in food digestion and
nutrient absorption.
Top |
Why should I consider taking
enzymes?
Enzymes are the force that allows our body to digest and absorb
food. Our body requires enzymes and minerals to regulate every
biochemical and metabolic process in our bodies as well as all
living things.Top |
| What conditions may enzymes
help? Elite-Zyme Ultra may help heartburn, bloating,
indigestion, chronic fatigue, high cholesterol, heart disease,
intestinal & colon problems, constipation or chronic constipation.

| Can you provide any other
information on enzymes? The following is a study that is
outlined in the booklet by Tonita d' Raye!
Dr. Francis Pottenger conducted a now-famous independent study about
the long-term effects of eating cooked foods. The study about the
long-term effects of eating cooked foods. The study involved 900
cats over the course of ten years. During the study, Dr. Pottenger
fed two sets of cats raw milk and meat and another three sets of
pasteurized milk and cooked meat. Cats that ate the raw food were
healthy and disease-free and produced healthy kittens generation
after generation. At the end of the first generation, cats that ate
cooked foods were lethargic and began to suffer from allergies,
infections, and other maladies, including kidney, heart, thyroid,
and gum diseases. Each succeeding generation of cats that ate cooked
food showed progressively more illness and disease. The third
generation of cats that ate cooked food were not even able to
produce offspring.
Whether we are cats, dogs, or human beings, when enzyme-dead food is
eaten, the body is overburdened to produce enzymes to aid in the
process of digestion. The body will actually interrupted the making
of vital metabolic enzymes in order to compensate for the enzyme
deficiencies in the foods we eat. Enzyme-less diets are responsible
for many of humanity’s ills, including the shortening of lives.
Today, doctors are treating children for juvenile arthritis, sugar
diabetes, and other degenerative diseases that just a few years ago
were found only in people in their fifties and sixties.
After thinking about the study above, many of us may believe that if
we want to improve our health and longevity, we can eat more raw
vegetables and fruits. And take digestive enzymes to replace the
enzymes that were destroyed during the cooking process.

Can you tell me what is used
in Elite-Zyme Ultra enzymes?
The formula utilizes only plant-based enzymes from Aspergillis Orzae,
Aspergillus Niger, Rhizopus-Oryzae, Saccharomyces and plant (bromelain
& papain). This is a full spectrum high activity formulation
designed for our digestive system when eating cooked and processed
foods.Top |
| What does Elite-Zyme Ultra
contain? Enzymes in this product are listed below with
their purpose for assisting in breaking down foods.
Protease: Breaks down protein to peptides and amino acids.
Acid Stable Protease: Breaks down Acidic protein.
Papain: Protease enzyme that also breaks down protein.
Bromelain: Protease enzyme that also breaks down protein.
Amylase: Breaks down starch "-1,4 glucan bonds". Breaks down
carbohydrates, starches, and sugars that are prevalent in potatoes,
fruits, vegetables, and snack foods.
Amyloglucosidase (Glucoamylase): Breaks down starch "-1,4 and –1,6
glucan bonds" (goes one step beyond Amylase).
Malt Diastase: Digests maltose, malt and grain sugars. Breaks down
complex and simple sugars.
Lipase: Breaks down fats (triglycerides and other lipids) and oils.
Useful in aiding in weight control, maintaining and enhancing
cardiovascular health, and helping maintain proper gall bladder
function.
Lactase: Aids in the digestion of lactose. Lactase breaks down
lactose that is found in milk sugars. Useful for individuals
suffering from lactose intolerance.
Alpha Galactosidase: Active ingredient found in Beano. Breaks down
of raffinose, stachyose and melibiose. Beano helps to prevent gas,
bloating and pressure caused by many healthful foods (broccoli,
cabbage, carrots, onions, peppers, corn, cauliflower, brussels
sprouts, beans, peas and more).
Cellulase: Cellulase increases the availability of anthocyanidins,
powerful antioxidants from grapes and other berries. Cellulase
breaks down fiber, helping to solubilize nutrients from fruits and
vegetables.
Hemicellulase: Hemicellulase is a group of enzymes that hydrolyzes
the complex polysaccharides known as hemicellulose. Hemicellulose is
highly viscous (sticky) compounds that bind digestive enzymes and
decrease the rate of nutrient assimilation. Hemicellulase increases
protein absorption from various grains.
Invertase (Sucrase): Catalyzes the inversion of sucrose (table
sugar) to glucose and fructose.
Phytase: Breaks down phosphate and digests phytate. Phytate is a
mineral-binding agent that reduces the bioavailability of certain
minerals such as zinc, iron, and calcium. When cooked grains are
eaten, almost none of the phytate is degraded. Results from research
by Ann-Sofie Sandberg of Goteborg University in Sweden, indicate
that dietary phytase is critical for human digestion of phytate.
Pectinase: Breaks down pectin that is found in fruits, which allows
these vital nutrients to be utilize by our body.
Ionic Trace Minerals with Alfalfa : Provides the minerals to enhance
the functions of the enzymes.
