Digestive Enzymes

How Does NSI® Pancreatin 10X work? Pancreatin 10X is an exclusive blend of powerful, natural enzymes that, when taken with meals, promotes healthy digestion and enhances nutrient absorption. Enzymes are an important part of the digestive process, essential to the breakdown of protein, carbohydrates and fats as well as the absorption of nutrients from the foods we eat. When you eat a meal, digestive enzymes are immediately released from your salivary glands, stomach and small intestines. Without them, even the most nutritious foods would not be of use to the body, as the vitamins and minerals they contain would not be properly absorbed. In addition, foods would move slowly through the digestive tract, resulting in abdominal bloating, gas, constipation, heartburn and other discomforts. Research indicates that the human body loses its ability to produce enzymes with age. Poor eating habits, such as not chewing food properly, may also lead to inadequate enzyme production. Consuming excess processed or overcooked foods, rather than fresh, raw fruits and vegetables (which contain enzymes that naturally break down foods for proper absorption) is another potential cause of enzyme deficiency. Supplementing with digestive enzymes just before mealtimes may help assist the digestive process, allowing your body to obtain all the nutritional value from the foods you eat. It may also contribute to improved elimination, thereby promoting colon and intestinal health.
