ENZYME CHOICES
World Nutrition has been a pioneer in the advancement of systemic enzyme therapy. As thousands of health professionals and their patients have seen the tremendous benefits of Vitalzym, many other enzyme supplements have tried to mirror the profound results of Vitalzym. Vitalzym continues to be at the forefront of enzyme supplementation with the introduction of the liquid-filled gel capsule that provides 100% systemic availability.
The key to the effectiveness of any systemic enzyme is the amount absorbed into the bloodstream. A properly enteric coated enzyme will bypass the stomach and release its enzymes for absorption in the bloodstream. The enzyme is absorbed in to the bloodstream from the small intestine. Below is a comparison of the Vitalzym liquid-filled gel capsule versus competing products.
Many competitive products using powder enzymes in tablet form use organic chemical coatings rather than all natural coatings like that of Vitalzym. These organic chemicals used have been linked to serious health problems. To learn more about these organic chemical coatings, visit the Center for Disease Control. Other enteric coating include PEG (polyethylene glycol) and ethyl cellulose, which have been known to cause intestinal distress.
