IBS Awareness: The Power of Digestive Enzymes

IBS Awareness: The Power of Digestive Enzymes

Digestive Enzymes can be helpful when taken right before a meal, especially if there is more fat in that meal than is safe for IBS. Enzymes are available at all health food stores and may be of more benefit to older people, as natural digestive enzyme production declines with age. For gassy foods such as beans, lentils, and many vegetables, there is Digest PLUS, a brand-name digestive enzyme. Digest PLUS contains the sugar-digesting enzyme that the body needs (and which some people lack) to digest the complex sugar raffinose. If you have trouble digesting raffinose the sugar will ferment in your colon, producing gas and intestinal distress. Digest PLUS breaks down raffinose into simple sugars that cause no GI discomfort. Digest PLUS is available at LifeChoiceRX, and is simply taken at the beginning of a meal. There are no side effects unless you have a rare sensitivity or allergy, and the product can be used every day in conjunction with your HCG weight loss program.
