  • Digestive Enzymes--Do we need them?
    Digestive enzymes help your body to breakdown foods.
    Amylases: breakdown carbohydrates, sugars and starches
    Lipases: help to breakdown fats
    Proteases: help to breakdown protein
    Sucrases: sucrose
    Lactases: lactose in dairy
    DPP IV-gluten and dairy
    *Pancreas---produces and releases amylase, lipase and protease into the small intestine
    **Digestive enzymes can be reabsorbed and recycled by the pancreas
    *Mouth produces amylase and lipase
    *Stomach: protease
    Thought and smell of food starts the process of digestion by releasing of amylase and lipase in the saliva, increase pepsin and hydrochloric acid for assistance of protein digestion in the stomach and the pancreas release of amylase, lipase and protease.
    Animal based: porcine and bovine
    Digestive enzymes plant based: Papaya and pineapples contain a natural enzyme called Papain and Bromelain, respectively.--helps breakdown protein
    Foods with enzymes
    Kiwis-actinidin for protein breakdown
    Mangos-amylases
    Bananas-amylases and glucosidase
    Raw honey--diastase, amylase, invertase and protease
    Avocado-lipase
    Sauerkraut/kimchi-fermented food contain probiotics and digestive enzymes
    Miso--lactases, lipases, proteases and amylases
    Ginger--digestive enzyme zingibain, which is a protease
    Kefir-fermented milk-breakdown lactose
    Gallstones, cystic fibrosis, autoimmune conditions, pancreatitis, smoking, alcohol, stress, antacid overuse.
    Signs of enzyme deficiency: constipation, diarrhea, cramps, dyspepsia, gas and bloating, weight gain and weight loss
    Synergistic effects of enzymes
    Other considerations: betaine HCL, pepsin, ox bile, ginger peppermint, dandelion root cofactors: B-vitamins, minerals
    **Lemon juice, papaya seeds, chewing ginger, pineapple, celery juice
    **Need correct pH in the stomach to trigger enzymes. Temperature triggers enzymes and some enzymes are more tolerant to heat.

    Sounds good, but ... how does one determine which enzyme they are lacking and how much they need. Some people produce these enzymes but perhaps not in a sufficient quantity. Someone needs to develop a structured testing methodology.

      They're companies that do this for people, and give them poop analysis reports on their microbiome. They'll tell you which foods you're lacking for your microbiome. Just remember, eat those foods raw. Don't kill off the enzymes by cooking or boiling them. Alcohol kills enzymes as well, So eat'em raw.

    Interesting, because I have been meat based for my nutrition for over a year, pretty much 90% carnivore, and have great results with my digestive system. 1 bowel movement every other day, nice and small, exits easily, and I feel absolutely amazing! Great energy, sleep, and losing body fat. Haven't had vegetables in over a year, don't miss them at all! No fruit either.

    There are hundreds of different enzyme brands/formulas on the market. Although I have (read) three superb books on enzymes, including what to look for in an enzyme,.....comparing what's on the market is extremely difficult. Many brands either don't tell you specifics on their ingredients, or they say their formula is "proprietary" (secret)!! In reading Bohager, Hewell, and Cichoke, the specifics are all well defined. Is there anyone out there that knows of a third party who has tested the contents of various brands and has these listen on one site for reference? The enzyme business is a labyrinth.

    I often have loose stool about an hour after eating a fatty meal (like eggs), unless I take Pancreatin. I've been on keto for years so it seems strange that my body has not adapted. The food also tends to "sit there" undigested, unless I load up on betaine HCL. Is it possible there's a more foundational problem? I'm starting to wonder if this could be due to an autonomic nervous system or vagus nerve issue? What do you think?

Their are supplements that will help fix intestinal permability (leaky gut) as well, such as butyrate, cats claw, some people say slippery elm, marshmallow root (the plant, not the confectionary) There are a few. Their are lots of other foods or supplements that will help clean up all those lipopolysaccharides and other free radicals floating around in the blood stream that have already gotten through the leaky gut, such as curcumin, resveratrol, quercetin (their are lots)
