The scientific basis of digestive enzymes

Digestive enzymes are special proteins that break down nutrients into smaller building blocks. This makes it easier for the body to absorb and utilize carbohydrates, proteins and fats. Without these essential digestive enzymes, the digestion of complex foods would be severely restricted.

A functioning digestive system is crucial for the daily supply of nutrients. It ensures that your body can make optimal use of the food you eat - from small snacks to large meals (Bland & Costarella, 2016).

What is a multi-enzyme complex?

A multi-enzyme complex combines different enzymes in a single capsule. While a single enzyme can only break down a specific nutrient group, such a complex covers a broader spectrum.

The Digestive Enzyme Complex is based on Digezyme® - a patented combination of amylase, protease, lipase, cellulase and lactase. This versatile digestive enzyme mixture makes the complex particularly effective and ensures that different components of the food are processed efficiently.

Enzyme complex compared to individual enzymes

Individual enzymes such as bromelain or papain have long been known and appreciated. However, a complex offers the advantage of combining several functions in a single formula. Instead of just breaking down proteins or carbohydrates, the enzymes contained work together. For you, this means fewer products, but more comprehensive support from just one capsule.

Ideally, Digestive Enzyme Complex should be taken directly with meals, when nutrients are being absorbed. One portion corresponds to one capsule, which is simply swallowed with a glass of water. The recommended daily intake is one capsule, which you can take flexibly with your meals.

Many users use digestive enzymes especially with protein-rich or hard-to-digest foods. The practical capsule form makes it particularly easy and flexible to take - studies such as Ozaki et al. (2018) show that enzyme-containing food supplements can support the digestive process in such cases.

Professional tips from Gigas experts on intake:

  • Timing is crucial: it is best to take the capsule directly at the start of a meal. This allows the enzymes to work optimally. Do not exceed the recommended daily amount to ensure safe use.
  • Sufficient fluids: Drink at least one glass of water with each intake. This dissolves the plant-based cellulose capsule shell and releases the digestive enzymes quickly.
  • Adjust the dosage: You can also take two capsules with large or protein-rich meals. This is the best way to support your digestion.
  • Take regularly: For a lasting effect, take the capsules regularly with your main meals - not just occasionally. The same applies here: Do not exceed the recommended daily amount.
  • Supplement your diet: Digestive Enzyme Complex supports your digestion, but is no substitute for a balanced and varied diet. Use the product as a sensible supplement.
  • For intolerances: If you do not tolerate lactose well or have a sensitive digestion, take the capsule before or during a meal. The lactase it contains helps to digest lactose.
  • Not on an empty stomach: Avoid taking it on an empty stomach. Enzymes such as alpha-galactosidase then work less well and can cause stomach irritation.

These tips will help you get the most out of Digestive Enzyme Complex. The combination of fiber and fat digestive enzymes in particular provides comprehensive support for the digestion of complex foods.

Why enzyme capsules are practical

Powder or loose tablets are often unwieldy. Capsules, on the other hand, are easy to dose, tasteless and fit in any pocket - ideal for on the go or when traveling.

The capsule shell of the Digestive Enzyme Complex is made from vegetable cellulose and is also suitable for vegetarians. So you get high-quality enzymes in a simple form suitable for everyday use.

Quality & production

The composition and manufacture of food supplements are important. GN Laboratories uses strictly controlled raw materials and modern processes.

Particularly noteworthy is the patented multi-enzyme matrix Digezyme®. Studies on enzymes such as bromelain (Roshanravan et al., 2019) confirm the careful selection of ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions:

What are digestive enzymes?
Digestive enzymes are special proteins. They help to break down food into smaller pieces. This enables the body to absorb nutrients better. They are called 'digestive enzymes'. Studies, such as that by Menzel et al. (2001), show that they have been used in nutrition for a long time.
When should I take digestive enzymes?
  • With meals high in protein or fat
  • With large or heavy meals
  • If you have special nutritional needs
What is Digezyme?
Digezyme® is a special mixture of several enzymes. It contains amylase, protease, lipase, cellulase and lactase. These enzymes help to digest various nutrients. Studies, for example by Sann et al. (1989), confirm the effectiveness of such mixtures.
What effect do digestive enzymes have?
Digestive enzymes help to break down proteins, carbohydrates and fats into smaller pieces. This makes them easier for the body to absorb. A complex such as Digezyme® combines various enzymes. This supports several nutrients at the same time.
When do you need digestive enzymes?
Digestive enzymes are particularly useful for large or protein-rich meals. They can also help with unfamiliar foods. The Digestive Enzyme Complex is designed to be taken flexibly with meals. It complements the diet perfectly.
Does it make sense to take enzymes?
Whether enzymes are useful depends on the diet. Many people use them in dishes that are high in protein or difficult to digest. Enzymes do not replace a balanced diet, but supplement it. The Digestive Enzyme Complex from GN Laboratories is a simple and practical solution in capsule form.
What are the advantages of an enzyme complex?
An enzyme complex combines various enzymes in one capsule. This allows several nutrients to be digested at the same time. Digezyme®, the heart of the Digestive Enzyme Complex, combines five enzymes in one formula. This provides versatile support for digestion.
