enzymes?
Enzymes are the
“energy of life.”
Thousands of enzymes are constantly at work in your body behind the scenes. These biologically active proteins facilitate chemical reactions that all of your cells, organs and tissues need for everyday bodily functions — such as breathing, digestion, metabolism and more. Nothing happens in your body without enzymes. All of those enzymes act like scissors, cutting up and breaking down specific foods and compounds so your body can use them more effectively and efficiently.
How enzymes work
In your digestive system, your salivary glands, stomach, pancreas, liver and small intestine produce and secrete digestive enzymes to break down food into nutrients.
To completely convert food into nutrients that can be well-absorbed, your body needs steady supplies of those digestive enzymes.
The body requires a sufficient amount of digestive enzymes to break down a meal — and sometimes there’s just not enough. That could be due to age, lifestyle or personal habits, an inherited genetic deficiency (like lactose intolerance) or simply overdoing it on occasion. Sometimes, your body needs a little help. That’s where digestive enzyme supplements come in.
Partially undigested food leads to fermentation in the gut, resulting in uncomfortable digestive symptoms like bloating, gas, indigestion and even constipation or diarrhea. Supplementing with digestive enzymes helps counteract incomplete digestion — and prevent the symptoms associated with enzyme insufficiency. It also increases energy (since less is diverted toward digestion) and absorption of vital nutrients to help you get the most out of every meal.
Why supplement with digestive enzymes?
The Thera-blend™ difference
The secret to our potency is in our Thera-blend enzymes like amylase, lipase, cellulase and protease, which break down complex foods like proteins, carbohydrates, dairy, fats and fibers – even for larger meals!*
Enzymedica's proprietary Thera-blend™ technology means that the enzymes found in our supplements will work in the critical pH ranges naturally found throughtout the digestive system. When other brands’ enzyme formulas may fall short due to limited activity in the most important pH, ours are formulated to be effective!*
Thera-blend™ technology ensures our enzymes work where they’re needed.*

Not all enzymes are created equal
Quality enzymes don’t list measurements solely by weights (such as milligrams or grams). Enzymes need to be measured by activity levels, using unique standards for each type.
To test enzyme activity units, we use the internationally recognized standard called the Food Chemical Codex. This is a collection of standards for the purity and identity of food ingredients. Each type of enzyme has its own FCC unit activity abbreviation.
Quality enzymes should list the number of units, not their weight. No exceptions!
If a supplement doesn’t list the enzyme activity units of every single enzyme, you’re wasting your money.

Get to know digestive enzymes
Digestive enzymes are named based on their function. They typically end in -ase. For example, lactase breaks down lactose, protease breaks down protein and lipase breaks down lipids (fat).
Digestion is a complicated, systematic process that begins even before you take your first bite of food. When you smell something delicious and your mouth waters, your salivary glands are kicking off digestion. Saliva offers more than moisture; it also delivers your first round of digestive enzymes to help you start to break down food by chewing it. From there, different macronutrients are digested at different stages, with the help of the stomach, small intestine, pancreas and liver.
These are the digestive enzymes for each
macronutrient group:
