DuoZyme Supplement 180 Capsules by Karuna Health
The human body is an efficient system that can absorb, excrete, and eliminate a number of compounds and products when it sees fit. This is typically something that occurs during digestion, which is the process of breaking food down into smaller particles and compounds for either absorbing for nourishment or excreting for elimination and waste. The digestive system includes the mouth, esophagus, stomach, and the intestines, and the intriguing part about the digestive system is that nothing that is inside the digestive system is technically not âinsideâ the body. Once absorption of nutrients occurs, only then are those compounds considered within the body. This makes for a great defense mechanism for the body and it allows for only the best compounds to be invited inside for nourishment.
The digestion process is a complex process that involves impeccable and accurate breakdown of food and liquids and processes them into smaller compounds. These compounds typically are first digested in the mouth, where chewing and saliva cause the food particles to change their composition. Once swallowed, the wad of swallowed food enters the stomach, where hydrochloric acid dissolves compounds that need to be broken down. The hydrochloric acid is a great mechanism in the stomach for sterilizing the wad of food you swallow. In addition, when the food is in the stomach, many digestive enzymes are secreted to help with the breakdown process. When the larger compounds are broken down, food is then moved to the small intestine where most of your absorption. This entire process is how you get nutrients to your body and it is vital for your life.
DuoZyme 180 Capsules
As part of proper digestion and support for the digestive process, it is wise to aid the process with supplements, which may increase your efficiency. DuoZyme 180 Capsules are formulated to aid in the digestion process by supplying a vast array of digestive enzymes that are known to help speed digestion along in a timely manner. These enzymes specifically target foods that you eat including the carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Protease is the first ingredient in the DuoZyme 180 Capsules that starts the digestion, working to breakdown the proteins in the food you eat. Next, amylase is used to breakdown the carbohydrates in your food, which also serves a valuable role in energy usage and storage. Lastly, lipase is the enzyme supplied by DuoZyme 180 Capsules that breaks down the fat in the food you eat. With these enzymes working together, your digestion process may be improved.
Directions for use:
As part of a healthy lifestyle, supplement digestion by consuming 2 capsules with every meal and at least three times per day. It is best to consume your dose with water and not juice, so as to avoid excessive acid content in your stomach. For those who have ulcers, it is wise to consult with a doctor or pharmacist prior to use in order to ensure that your condition is not interfered with DuoZyme 180 Capsules. Store these capsules in a dry, cool area away from children, pets, and infants.
Proper digestion requires both a gastric phase supplying hydrochloric acid and pepsin, and an alkaline duodenal phase supplying protease, amylase, and lipase enzymes. DuoZyme provides all of these factors in a single, convenient, high potency capsule delivery system. DuoZyme utilizes the technologically superior enzyme-release system which was favorably evaluated by Dr. David Graham in An Enteric-Coated Pancreatic Enzyme Preparation That Works (Dig Dis Sci 1979;24:906-9).
DuoZyme contains the acidulants betaine HCl and glutamic HCl, which help acidify gastric contents, creating a favorable environment for the proteolytic action of pepsin.
Pancreatin and ox bile extract, contained in pH-sensitive microspheres, supplement the natural secretions of the pancreas and liver, and promote the intestinal phase of digestion.
pH-sensitive microspheres typically provide a more effective means for delivering intact enzymes to the small intestine to reduce malabsorption of macronutrients (Dig Dis Sci 1979; 24:906-9).
