Digestive Enzymes

Our bodies pour enzymes into our digestive systems where they act on the food to break it down into molecules that are small enough to be absorbed. Enzymes are very specific in what they break down, for example:

Lipase acts on fats
Protease acts on protein
Amylase acts on starch

As we age, our natural production of enzymes may decline. If food is not broken down properly, we could fail to absorb all the nutrients and also undigested food passing into the lower gut may be fermented by the resident bacteria causing wind and bloating. Smokers and alcohol drinkers often choose a digestive enzyme supplement.
