Did you know that 70 to 80 percent of your immunity resides within your gut? The idea of ingesting live bacteria to keep you healthy might seem a bit hard to swallow, but studies show that probiotics can help resolve the uncomfortable effects of bowel and intestinal upset and keep our gastrointestinal tract healthy. Our digestive tract contains millions of beneficial bacteria to help with digestion and protect us from invaders. If the bacteria population becomes depleted, there will not be enough friendly bacteria on the job to keep you healthy – leading to issues like pain, cramping and diarrhoea.
Approximately 100 trillion microorganisms made up of more than 500 species already live in a normal, healthy colon. There is “good” bacteria as well as “bad”, but in order for them to work together, they need to be balanced. Lifestyle choices can throw the balance off – a poor diet, stress, lack of sleep, overuse of antibiotics – all can tip the scales and let bad bacteria take over. Good bacteria patrol the gut (gastrointestinal tract) and keep harmful microorganisms in line by helping with food digestion and nutrient absorption. They also play a role in maintaining a healthy immune system and synthesize vitamins and minerals.
Probiotics are beneficial bacteria, or live microorganisms, that work by colonizing the small and large intestines and inhibit the growth and activity of harmful organisms. They have been found to stimulate the immune system and enhance the absorption of certain nutrients. Research shows that certain strains can be helpful for restoring a healthy gut flora after the use of antibiotics and in cases of diarrhoea.

New Roots Digesive Enzymes With Betaine Hydrochloride 100 caps
Digestive Enzymes is formulated with pancreatin, betain, ox bile, papain, and pepsin.
Pancreatic enzymes are the foundation for the digestion and absorption of the food we eat. The aging process and the various diseases that afflict the pancreas can drastically reduce the production of these enzymes and lead to bloating, gas, and feeling of fullness that persist due to impaired digestion. Each capsule of New Roots Herbal’s Digestive Enzymes is formulated with protease, amylase, and lipase to help digest protein, carbohydrates, and fat, respectively.
This pure porcine-sourced pancreatin 4× (four times the strength) is bolstered with betain hydrochloride, ox bile salts, papain (sourced from papaya), and pepsin for maximum intestinal digestive breakdown of the food we eat. This formula is particulary useful for people with low digestive enzyme levels.
Adults: Take 1–4 capsules daily with food or as directed by your health-care practitioner. Take with or immediately before a meal/food. Swallow whole; do not crush or chew. Use the smallest effective dose which controls symptoms. Consult a health-care practitioner for use beyond 4 weeks.
New Roots Plant Digestive Enzymes
New Roots Herbal’s Plant Digestive Enzymes helps resupply your body with natural plant-digestive enzyme, lost from cooked and processed food. These enzymes digest fats, proteins, carbohydrates, sugars, minerals, grains, and fibres.
When it is in its natural state, raw and unprocessed, the food you eat contains—along with its many nutrients—the enzymes you need to break down that food. But many of us exist on a diet of primarily cooked food, and digestive enzymes are extremely sensitive to heat. In fact, they are more sensitive to heat than vitamins, and are destroyed by any heat above 48 °C (118 °F); imagine what cooking does to digestive enzymes and to your digestion! Not only cooking, but also pasteurization, canning, and microwaving destroy digestive enzymes.
Our plant enzymes possess four major benefits over enzymes derived from the pancreas of animals.
Firstly—and obviously—, they are suitable for vegetarians.
Secondly, they are active over a broader range of foods than animal-derived enzymes.
Thirdly, they begin their work earlier in the digestive process than animal enzymes. Plant enzymes begin working in the stomach; animal enzymes begin working only later, in the intestines. So plant enzymes spare the body a lot of work by predigesting food before it is exposed to your body’s own pancreatic enzymes.
Finally, plant enzymes avoid the possible risk inherent in animal-derived enzymes that your body will recognize them as its own pancreatic enzymes and diminish its own production.
Prairie Naturals Keto Enzymes 120 caps
Fat Digestive Enzyme
KetoEnzyme contains natural fat-digesting enzymes and purified ox bile powder, specially designed to help fat digestion, relieve constipation and provide bile salts for bloating, gas and digestive stress. Bile salts naturally act as an emulsifier for all types of fat. Emulsified fats are then more easily broken down by lipase enzymes, and properly absorbed. Bile salts and lipase enzymes facilitate the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins and phytonutrients, as well as omega fatty acids.
