doTERRA DigestZen TerraZyme Digestive Enzyme Complex is a proprietary blend of active whole-food enzymes and supporting cofactors that are often deficient in cooked, processed, and preservative-laden foods. The powerful combination of digestive enzymes found in DigestZen TerraZyme supports the body’s constant production of enzymes critical for healthy biochemical functions, including healthy digestion of food nutrients and cellular metabolism of nutrients to energy. DigestZen TerraZyme includes a variety of whole-food enzymes that help with the digestion of proteins, fats, complex carbohydrates, sugars, and fiber.

Description

Enzymes are specialized proteins that function as catalysts in almost all cellular functions and chemical reactions throughout the body. Enzymes play a critical role in growth, healing, and reproduction. They are also necessary for breathing, thinking, immune function, hormone regulation, detoxification, and thousands of other biochemical functions. Enzymes are also necessary for digesting food nutrients and converting nutrients to energy in cells.

Enzymes can originate inside and outside the body. Endogenous enzymes are produced in the body and can be classified as metabolic enzymes and digestive enzymes. Metabolic enzymes are active in blood, tissues, and organs. Digestive enzymes are excreted by the liver and pancreas and help the body convert food to usable nutrients. Exogenous enzymes are enzymes originating outside the body and are classified as food enzymes. Food enzymes are found in raw, unprocessed foods and help break down nutrients during digestion.

The body’s ability to constantly produce metabolic and digestive enzymes is limited by raw material availability and production capacity. If our diets do not include sufficient food enzymes to break down the food we eat, our body’s endogenous enzyme resources must be directed toward the production of digestive enzymes to speed conversion of food to bioavailable nutrients. Production capacity directed toward the production of digestive enzymes is capacity not available for the production of important metabolic enzymes.

The body’s constant need to produce digestive enzymes can result in decreased levels of metabolic enzymes that are critical for optimal health and cell function. One example of an important metabolic enzyme is superoxide dismutase (SOD), which protects cells from free-radical molecules. Metabolic enzymes are also necessary for energy production, tissue growth and repair, and managing toxic waste products. When we eat foods that are rich in food enzymes, our bodies can use fewer resources to produce digestive enzymes and have more capacity to create optimal levels of metabolic enzymes.

Food Enzyme Deficiencies

Fresh, raw foods naturally contain sufficient enzymes for proper digestion. However, when food is cooked and processed, these naturally occurring food enzymes can be destroyed. The pasteurization, sterilization, radiation, preservation, freezing, and microwaving involved in our modern food supply can render enzymes inactive or alter their structures so much that they become useless to the body. Food processing can also remove important vitamin and mineral cofactors of enzymatic chemistry in the body.

You can reduce the internal demand for digestive enzyme production in your body by including more fresh, raw foods in your diet. Some experts suggest a healthy diet would see at least 60% of food nutrients coming from fresh, raw foods—a good goal but not always practical in modern day. A whole-food supplement of food enzymes is a more convenient way to guarantee sufficient enzymes.

FAQ

Should I take dōTERRA TerraZyme every day?
dōTERRA TerraZyme can be taken daily with meals, as needed. Depending on what type of meal you are eating, you can adjust the dose. For a more hearty meal with more fat or foods that are enzyme deficient, take up to 3 capsules. For lighter meals, such as a salad or fresh foods, you may only need 1 capsule.

Is it safe to take with GX Assist, PB Assist or Zendocrine?
Yes. dōTERRA TerraZyme can effectively be used in combination with the Zendocrine, GX Assist, PB Assist, and other products as needed to achieve your desired results.

Should I take it directly before or right after meals?
Enzyme supplements work best when taken directly before, during, or immediately after meals.

Does this product contain genetically modified material?
dōTERRA TerraZyme does not contain genetically modified material.

Is dōTERRA TerraZyme vegan/vegetarian friendly?
