MRM Digest-ALL IC
Digest-ALL IC (Intensive Care) is our next generation digestive care complex. Designed to promote a digestive system, the full-spectrum of proteins (digestive enzymes) is perfectly complimented by the most reliable, shelf-stable/bio-delivery system available for probiotics. This comprehensive collection of enzymes supports optimal digestion, minimizes gas and bloating, and maximizes the assimilation of nutrients.*
Probiotic supplementation supports digestion and natural immune function by replacing vital intestinal tract organisms lost to antibiotic use, disease, poor diets, stress, viral or fungal infections, or various other digestive problems.* Finally, our unique proprietary blend of ginger, peppermint and triphala soothes, comforts and balances the digestion process.
The importance of maintaining a balance of intestinal flora is well documented; unfortunately there are obstacles to delivering active cultures from the shelf to the gut, because of probiotic sensitivities to temperature, moisture, air, and pH. Digest-ALL IC addresses these obstacles with patented BIO-tract delivery technology and a patented LiveBac tableting process that work to ensure probiotic viability and benefit. The patented delivery technology is a sophisticated blend of excipients designed to create a protective barrier between the fragile probiotics and the harsh stomach environment. Once in the small intestines, the protective layer releases the digestive enzymes and LIVE probiotics. Bypassing the harsh stomach environment is essential for the introduction of ACTIVE cultures to the intestines that cannot be achieved by traditional capsules, powders, or even food.
Digest-ALL IC probiotic protection starts long before it gets ingested. The patented LiveBac tableting process was designed to combat the negative effects of heat, air and moisture present during conventional tableting methods. The result is a product that overcomes these obstacles to provide high viability probiotics with an increased shelf life, even without refrigeration.
Digest-ALL IC contains three proteases from plant and fungal sources that are active in a wide pH range of 3 to 9 at body temperature and in the presence of moisture. Proteases can hydrolyze protein to various amino acids. The activity across a wide pH range is important as the product starts working immediately in the low pH of the stomach and continues to work in the higher pH of the small and large intestines.
Digest-ALL IC contains a wide range of powerful carbohydrate digesting enzymes. Amylase and glucoamylase break down carbohydrates, starches and sugars that are prevalent in potatoes, fruits, vegetables and snack foods. Lactase aids in the digestion of lactose, the primary sugar found in dairy products and milk. It is very useful for individuals suffering from lactose intolerance. Cellulase breaks down fiber found in fruits and vegetables, aiding in the ability to absorb their precious nutrients. Invertase catalyzes the inversion of sucrose (table sugar) to glucose and fructose to be readily used as an energy source. Maltase digests maltose, malt and grain sugar, and breaks down complex and simple sugars. CereCalase is a specific blend designed for fruits and vegetables as it breaks up plant cell was and phytic acid, two components of plants and seeds that stand in the way of getting the vital nutrients these foods can provide.
Lipase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes lipids, the ester bonds in triglycerides, to form fatty acids and glycerol. Once thought to be bad, fats are now better understood and an adequate supply of essential fatty acids in the diet are important to ensure cells. Lipase is the primary digestive enzyme used to split fats into fatty acids and glycerol, which is necessary for proper absorption and utilization.
The herb triphala has been used for centuries to support peristalsis, the contractions that help the smooth muscle of the intestines to move food through the digestion process. Peppermint and ginger have plant compounds that soothe the digestive tract during the digestion process.
