Unlocking nutrients in food

-

A COMPLETE and balanced nutrition intake may help in maintainin­g healthy body functions but it is also very much associated with the whole digestive process which involves food ingestion, food digestion, nutrient absorption and utilisatio­n.

Even the most complete diet will not provide full benefits to our body if it is not properly broken down into nutrients which are readily absorbed and utilised. Poorly digested food may lead to occasional abdominal discomfort, bloating and other undesirabl­e symptoms.

Enzymes – breaking down nutrients in food

Enzymes are produced by our body to assist in breaking down food and “unlocking” the nutrients allow them to be effectivel­y absorbed and used by the body.

However, the ageing process, an unhealthy lifestyle and poor eating habits can interfere with the body’s ability to produce an adequate supply of enzymes for the above process.

In addition, extreme cooking methods and processing technology can also destroy the enzymes naturally found in raw foods. For these reasons, obtaining an alternativ­e source of enzymes supply is important and required to maintain optimum health.

Biogrow Mixed Berries with Multi Enzymes contains a broad spectrum of 10 natural plantand microbial-derived enzymes imported from the US that can work in a broad ph range from ph3 – ph9 throughout the body.

This combinatio­n of enzymes includes Amylase, Protease, Lipase, Cellulase, Lactase, Maltase, Invertase, Bromelain and two proprietar­y enzymes – Peptizyme SP and Hemiseb that possess broad specificit­y for various types of food such as cereal grains, legumes, dairy products, meat and other foods.

Biogrow Mixed Berries with Multi Enzymes is specially formulated with a delicious blend of mixed berries for enhanced flavour and a tooth-friendly sweetener, Xylitol.

It is available in chewable tablet form, making it suitable for children, adults as well as the elderly.
