Enzymes are proteins that act as catalysts in biochemical reactions. Every enzyme has a specific reactant known as a substrate, which can be thought of like a lock and key. Devigest contains several enzymes or “keys” that can “unlock” (or break down) many of the food types that are common in our diet. The enzymes in Devigest are specific to the digestion of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. Additional enzymes have been added to help digest specific digestive irritants like lactose and gluten.

Most brands suggest that you take their enzyme product right before or with a meal. This is because the enzymes are required to help break down the food, so any time after would be less effective.

Devigest is a broad-spectrum digestive enzyme blend that helps restore the body’s digestive enzymes, support balanced digestion, and complete food assimilation. Devigest contains an extremely potent blend of enzymes for breaking down digestive irritants such as gluten and dairy products.

Devigest includes a highly potent peptidase with 500 units of DPP-IV activity per serving. It also contains alpha galactosidase (the active ingredient in the product Beano®) as well as enzymes such as lactase, acid-stable protease, and glucoamylase. Devigest was formulated to be effective for any type of diet, and provide even more relief for those with digestive sensitivities to gluten, casein, dairy, and much more. Those with a diet high in gassy foods such as beans and leafy vegetables will benefit greatly from the addition of alpha galactosidase.

A healthy body produces enzymes in sufficient quantities to ensure proper digestion of most foods. However, some people do not produce sufficient quantities of digestive enzymes, and often get the common symptoms of indigestion such as gas, bloating, and abdominal discomfort. These symptoms are common indicators that one may benefit from supplementation of a digestive enzyme. However, virtually everyone, even those who are asymptomatic, could benefit from the use of digestive enzymes.

Aminolase is a specialized protein digesting enzyme, designed to improve amino acid conversion when used in conjunction with protein-rich meals and/or supplements. If taken correctly, Aminolase works with your body to:

• Digest protein into its usable form, thereby making it more bioavailable than protein alone.
• Maximize the availability of amino acids.
• Greatly reduce stomach discomfort associated with consuming high amounts of protein.
• Effectively digest dietary proteins including supplements such as whey, casein, egg, soy, hemp, and pea proteins.

Aminolase helps break down protein efficiently and completely so that the body can maximize the absorption of amino acids into the blood stream. This will reduce exposure time to large protein peptides that can cause discomfort. Consumption of protein with Aminolase significantly raises the level of amino acids in the blood, compared to eating protein alone. Among those amino acids are the branch chain amino acids (BCAAs), which have been shown to play a vital role in muscle synthesis and recovery from workouts.
