| 3521 | Beta-Gest | Occasionally we may overeat, overtaxing the capacity of the naturally occurring chemicals and enzymes in the stomach critical for complete digestion of foods. Hydrochloric acid directly assists the absorption of some nutrients (e.g. vitamin B12), prepares protein to be absorbed, and activates pepsin, an enzyme that contributes to protein digestion. The protein-digesting enzymes (proteases) and lactase, necessary for effective digestion of lactose (milk sugar), all work in the acidic stomach environment. Also, as people age, their bodies tend to produce less hydrochloric acid and less lactase. |

Enzyme Digestive Aid | The primary agents in the intestinal phase of digestion are enzymes. The body requires three types of enzymes, proteases, lipases, and amylases, to digest proteins, fats, and carbohydrates (respectively); and the body requires bile salts and dehydrocholic acid to make fat digestion efficient. Enzymes designed to work in the alkaline environment of the intestinal tract must be protected during passage through the acidic environment of the stomach. As people age, their bodies tend to produce a lower enzyme volume. In addition, eating too much or too fast or making poor food choices can all overburden the body’s enzyme supply. |
