ActiveZyme digestive enzyme, 45 caps

ActiveZyme is an enzyme preparation whose enzymes break down food proteins, fats and carbohydrates into a better absorbed form. ActiveZyme breaks down grain gluten, milk protein and lactose in particular, but also other foods that cause hypersensitivity.

BioBlend-labelled enzymes are especially balanced mixtures that retain their activity throughout the gastrointestinal tract.

ActiveZyme is also especially good when increasing the amount of vegetables in the diet, or if there is a problem with vegetable digestion. ActiveZyme contains a group of enzymes that soften the structures of vegetables, making them easier to digest. Thus, valuable nutrients are actually utilized.

ActiveZyme utilizes Bio-Blend technology, which means that each enzyme labelled with this label contains multiple enzyme species from the same category. These each work in slightly different pH environments, ensuring that the product breaks down food from the stomach to the small intestine and colon.

Enzyme activity

The activity of enzymes is measured in specific units that indicate their effectiveness. Usually, nutritional supplements are indicated in milligrams or micrograms, but for enzymes, weight does not really say anything. Therefore, the effectiveness is indicated by different letter combinations such as HUT, FIP or GaIU. It is not necessary to understand these units more deeply, but these units make it possible to compare a product with another product on the store shelf.

ActiveZyme is by far the strongest on the market for the following enzymes:

• Alpha-galactosidase (Legumes / flatulence, oedema)
• Propyl endopeptidase (Gluten digestion)
• Xylanase (Vegetable digestion)

In addition to potentially problematic foods, ActiveZyme contains enzymes that break down all of the food’s proteins, fats, carbohydrates, and fibre.

Alpha-galactosidase900 GaIU

• Generally, breaks down gas-forming carbohydrates, especially raffinose and stachyose.
• Especially useful with raw vegetables and legumes (beans, etc.)
• ActiveZyme contains more Alfa galactosidase than other products on the market

DPP-IV
250 DPPU

• Dipeptidyl peptidase (DPP-IV) is an enzyme whose main targets are gluten and casein
• Helps to digest grains and milk proteins
• Please note! Those who suffer of coeliac disease or milk allergy should still avoid these foods, but the enzyme is helpful if you inadvertently ingest milk or grains containing gluten.

Propyl endopeptidase (PEP)60,000 PPI

• PEP is an enzyme that specializes in the breakdown of proteins containing amino acid proline. The structure of gluten contains a lot of proline so PEP breaks down gluten efficiently
• Selective enzyme for gluten in wheat, barley and rye
• ActiveZyme is the only product on the market that contains this enzyme
• Please note! Those who suffer of coeliac disease should still avoid these foods, but the enzyme is helpful if you inadvertently ingest grains containing gluten.

Xylanase15,500 XU

• The job of xylanase is to digest the cell walls of vegetables
• Especially useful when increasing the amount of vegetables in the diet, or the digestion of vegetables is poor
• Helps to better recover the vitamins contained in vegetables
• Strongest concentration on the market (cf. Digest Spectrum 10,000 XU)

Lactase1,500 ALU

• Breaks down lactose (milk sugar)
• Helps to digest lactose in dairy products

Amylase Bio-Blend
7,800 DU

• Dietary carbohydrates must first be broken down into simple sugars in order to be absorbed
• Amylases are enzymes that break down food carbohydrates into sugars
• Digestion of carbohydrates is important because otherwise they cause e.g. flatulence
• Bio-Blend means a mixture of several different amylases so that they work throughout the digestive tract

Protease Bio-Blend60,000 HUT

• Dietary proteins must first be broken down into amino acids in order to be absorbed
• Proteases are enzymes that break down food proteins into amino acids
• Proteins must first be digested into amino acids in order to be absorbed
• Bio-Blend means a mixture of several different proteases so that they work throughout the digestive tract

Lipase Bio-Blend450 FIP

• Dietary whole fats must first be broken down into fatty acids in order to be absorbed
• Lipases are enzymes that break down food fats into fatty acids
• Bio-Blend means a mixture of several different lipases so that they work throughout the digestive tract

Cellulase Bio-Blend420 CU

• Cellulase breaks down cellulose, i.e. plant fibres
• When plant fibres are properly digested, the nutrients contained in vegetables become better available
• Bio-Blend means a mixture of several different cellulases so that they work throughout the digestive tract

Hemicellulase25 HCU

• Hemicellulase breaks down hemicellulose, one of the building blocks of plant cell walls
• When plant fibres are properly digested, the nutrients contained in vegetables become better available

Glucoamylase15 AGU

• Breaks long-chain carbohydrates (starches) into glucose

Invertase

55 SU

• Breaks down sucrose (“table sugar”) into glucose and fructose

Maltase100 DP

• Breaks down dietary maltose into glucose

Phytase10 FU

• Breaks down phytic acid in grains and seeds, which is an antinutrient
• Improves the bioavailability of minerals and micronutrients

The recommended daily dose of 1-6 capsules per day contains:

• Alpha-galactosidase 900-5400 GalU
• Lactase 1500-9000 ALU
• DPP-IV 250-1500 U
• Propyl endopeptidase 60,000-36,000 PPI
• Xylanase 15500-93000 XU
• Amylase BioBlend 7800-46800 DU

• Hemicellulase 25-150 HCU
• Invertase 55-330 SU
• Maltase 100-600 DP
• Phytase 10-60 FTU
