Digestive Enzymes

 Digestive enzymes and probiotics are critical to our continued good health, and many Americans suffer depletion to some degree. Vaxa's Digestin formula is a premium digestive enzymes supplement, and together with ReFlora⁺, fully addresses this problem. Digestin provides the digestive enzymes Amylase, Protease, Lipase, Lactase, Cellulase, Sucrase, Maltase, plus 30 additional ingredients, such as Marshmallow Root, Papain, Papaya Leaf and much more! ReFlora supplies the natural flora (friendly bacteria) necessary for health and maintenance of the intestinal tract.

Enzymes are to your body what a spark plug is to your automobile. Your tissues and organs simply can’t function without them. The natural food we eat contains digestive enzymes necessary for digestion until cooked, micro waved, or processed. When heated above 118 degrees, digestive enzymes are destroyed. When digestive enzymes are missing, your body to dips into its enzyme reserves for enzymes normally earmarked for other functions. When your body converts metobolic enzymes to digestive enzymes, your enzyme store is reduced and potentially your lifespan. Over time, your reserves may be completely depleted.

Lactobacillus Plantarum is a natural flora that helps maintain the cleanliness and health of your digestive track. It and other "friendly" bacteria are sensitive to drugs, pollution and antibiotics so it is difficult to maintain effective levels in the human body without supplementation. The lack of enzymes and natural flora can lead to a variety of medical complications. 

    The following is a quote from Dr. Edward Howell, author of Enzyme Nutrition.  He was the recognized leading expert of enzymes and their supplementation. 

"Our Body's life force, vitality, vital force, strength, nerve energy or what ever you choose to call it has enzymes at its core. Without the life energy of enzymes we would be nothing more than a pile of lifeless chemical substances - vitamins, minerals, water and proteins. In both maintaining health and in healing, enzymes, and only enzymes, do the actual work. They are what we call in metabolism, the body's labor force. 

Each one of us is given a limited supply of bodily enzyme energy at birth. This supply, like the energy supply in a new battery, has to last a lifetime. The Faster you use up your enzyme supply, the shorter your life. A great deal of our enzyme energy is wasted haphazardly throughout life. The habit of cooking our food and eating it processed with chemicals; and the use of alcohol, drugs, and junk food all draw out tremendous quantities of enzymes from our limited supply.

 Frequent colds and fevers and exposure to extremes of temperature also deplete the supply. A body in such weakened, enzyme-deficient state is a prime target for cancer, obesity, heart disease, or other degenerative problems. A lifetime of such abuse often ends in the tragedy of death at middle age."
