The three primary categories are proteases (which break down proteins into amino acids), lipases (which break down fats into fatty acids and glycerol), and amylases (which break down starches into simple sugars). Additional enzymes like cellulase, lactase, and alpha-galactosidase target specific substrates that the human body produces in limited quantities or not at all.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs we age, enzyme production naturally declines. Research published in \u003cem\u003eAlimentary Pharmacology \u0026amp; Therapeutics\u003c\/em\u003e (2014) found that pancreatic enzyme output decreases significantly after age 40, contributing to incomplete digestion that manifests as bloating, gas, and discomfort after meals. Supplemental digestive enzymes can compensate for this decline, helping the body extract more nutrition from food while reducing the fermentation of undigested material in the colon -- a primary cause of post-meal gas and bloating.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePrebiotics complement enzymes by serving as food for beneficial gut bacteria. Unlike probiotics (which are live organisms), prebiotics are non-digestible fibers that selectively stimulate the growth of Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus species already present in the gut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow It Works\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEGUOO Digestive Enzymes + Prebiotics works through two complementary mechanisms:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEnzymatic breakdown:\u003c\/strong\u003e The 18-enzyme blend acts at multiple stages of digestion. Protease, bromelain, and papain target proteins. Lipase breaks down dietary fats. Amylase and glucoamylase handle starches. Cellulase and hemicellulase break down plant cell walls that humans cannot digest on their own. Lactase specifically targets lactose, the milk sugar that causes discomfort for roughly 68% of the global population.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePrebiotic nourishment:\u003c\/strong\u003e The prebiotic fiber component passes through the upper digestive tract intact, reaching the large intestine where it ferments and feeds beneficial bacteria.
