Digestive enzymes and Osavi probiotic

Support for People with Sensitive Digestive Systems

Do you feel that your digestive system needs special care? Combine the benefits of taking probiotics and digestive enzymes – take comprehensive care of your intestines.

What will you find in the composition of the dietary supplement Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics?

Branded ingredients DigeZyme® and LactoSpore®, which complement each other's action, supported by proteolytic enzymes (papain and bromelain).

DigeZyme®

A blend of digestive enzymes containing compounds such as: α-amylase, lipase, protease, cellulase, and lactase. Thanks to the latter, DigeZyme® supports the digestion of lactose.

What exactly do the individual digestive enzymes in DigeZyme® do?

Enzyme

Action

Where it occurs in the body

Where it is sourced from

α-Amylase

Breaks down carbohydrates into simple sugars

Oral cavity and pancreas

Fungus Aspergillus oryzae

Lipase

Breaks down fats

Pancreas

Fungus Rhizopus oryzae

Protease

Breaks down proteins and peptides

Pancreas

Bacteria Bacillus subtilis

Cellulase

Key in digesting vegetables and fruits, breaks down cellulose and chitin

The human body does not produce cellulase

Fungus Trichoderma longibrachiatum

Lactase

Breaks down lactose, improves comfort for those with lactose intolerance

Small intestine

Fungus Aspergillus oryzae

Additional Support for Proteolytic Enzymes

They support the digestive processes of proteins and increase their absorption into the body. Bromelain is known to work over a wide pH range, ensuring its high effectiveness. Papain and bromelain found in the Osavi dietary supplement come from natural plant sources: papaya and pineapple.

LactoSpore®

Your digestive tract is home to about 400 species of different probiotic bacteria. The most common are lactic acid bacteria. That’s why in LactoSpore® you will find lactic acid bacteria from the species Heyndrickxia coagulans, previously known as Lactobacillus sporogenes or Bacillus coagulans.

Why is the identification of probiotic bacterial species important?

Not all bacteria act on the digestive system in the same way – some exhibit less or more effectiveness. It’s just like choosing a dog. If you need a guard dog, an amstaff or rottweiler will be more effective than a chihuahua.

What distinguishes the probiotic LactoSpore®?

  • The stable form of spores (bacterial endospores) allows the bacteria to survive the unfavorable environment of stomach acid and effectively reach the intestines.
  • The spores are resistant to higher temperatures, so you don’t have to keep the supplement in the fridge.

Probiotic bacteria compete for space and food with pathogenic microorganisms, effectively limiting their proliferation. Moreover, they produce metabolites that also hinder their development.

In one capsule of the dietary supplement Digestive Enzymes and Probiotics, you will find as much as 2 billion CFU Heyndrickxia coagulans MTCC 5856.

What is CFU?

CFU (short for Colony Forming Units) refers to “units that form colonies.” They are used to indicate the number of live probiotic bacteria in a serving of dietary supplement.

The appropriate amount of bacteria ensures the effects you expect.
