“Bitters stimulate all digestive secretions: salive, acids, enzymes, hormones, bile, and so forth. Each of these acts as a solvent to break down food for absorption, and the quantity and quality of these foods ensure proper nutrition. Crafted from exceptional blends of certified organic Vermont herbs and roots, complimented by a few worldly exotics, our digestive bitters revive the tradition of dazzling the palate while priming digestion. I mentioned in another post that I was talking to a holistic nutritionist today about certain foods. We also got to talking about digestive enzymes and she said her belief is that it is much better to take bitters because they encourage your body to create its own digestive enzymes to process food.

Even if that is true, I think it would still be helpful right now to take enzymes, and then when you are down the road and can test your body once you feel better try the bitters. If protease is present in the digestive tract when you have bacteria (even from probiotics) the bacteria may be broken down to some degree. Remember that proteolytic enzymes will break down the protein protection of abnormal cells or pathogens. In this case, digestive enzymes and HCL may be necessary (as well as a change in your diet) to bring that fire back. For use in cancer treatment, this amount may not be effective at all. So please consult someone who knows what they’re talking about and can create a protocol specific to your needs. Utility. While you benefit from the action of both digestive enzymes and probiotics, they do very different things in your body. Digestive enzymes break large nutritional molecules, including protein, carbohydrates and fats, into smaller molecules that your intestine can absorb. Probiotics are organisms, many of them native to the human intestine, that help your digestive tract function. Digestive enzymes aid in digestive processes, which are the reactions that break food molecules into smaller pieces prior to absorption. While both are essential for digestion, several factors make probiotics and digestive enzymes very different from one another This post is for you… you need to know about digestive bitters ! If you’ve got digestive issues, you’ve probably heard a lot about enzymes and probiotics. If you use expensive probiotics and enzymes to assist your digestion, then digestive bitters are WORTH looking into.

I continued with the bitters, and found that I was not getting any more break outs. Digestive enzymes like protease (a proteolytic enzyme too), lipase, amylase, lactase, etc. are produced by your body and released during the digestive process. In this case, digestive enzymes and HCL may be necessary (as well as a change in your diet) to bring that fire back. For use in cancer treatment, this amount may not be effective at all. So please consult someone who knows what they’re talking about and can create a protocol specific to your needs. Several different glands produce digestive enzymes. The salivary glands in your mouth produce and secrete saliva, which contains the digestive enzyme known as salivary amylase. As food progresses to the stomach, two additional enzymes aid in the process of digestion: pepsin and gastric amylase. The pancreas secretes the three digestive enzymes known as pancreatic amylase, pancreatic protease and pancreatic lipase. In contrast to these enzymes, the liver produces bile salts and releases the substance to the gall bladder, which stores bile until you eat a meal.  A. Yes! Bitters stimulate our body’s innate digestive response and optimize digestive function. They trigger the digestive system to produce the body’s endogenous digestive enzymes, secrete bile, and balance HCl levels in the stomach. Crafted from exceptional blends of certified organic Vermont herbs and roots, complimented by a few worldly exotics, our digestive bitters revive the tradition of dazzling the palate while priming digestion. Some digestive enzymes are also proteolytic enzymes and some proteolytic enzymes are digestive enzymes. Protease is an example of one that is both. So it depends on where the enzyme is to determine it’s function. If protease is in in the gut with food, it will break down the proteins in your meal. In this case, digestive enzymes and HCL may be necessary (as well as a change in your diet) to bring that fire back. For use in cancer treatment, this amount may not be effective at all.
