Digestive enzymes are special types of protein molecules that catalyzethe breakdown of food into components that can be utilized by the body.These proteins are not stored in the body but are released based on theanticipation aroma or actual presence of food in the digestive system.Because they are not stored they must be taken with each meal,preferably with the food. Merritt's enzymes contain a blend of plant andmicrobial produced enzymes. None of them are from animal sources.
Each enzyme is highly specific as to the class of food it works on andthe temperature and pH of its effective range of activity. Animalderived enzymes will work in only one area of the digestive system,while plant and microbial enzymes work throughout the whole system, frommouth through the stomach into the intestines. As the body ages lessenzymes are produced and supplementation is necessary to assure optimumhealth.
To maintain optimum health in an animal it needs to be fed an optimum,diet, but also needs to have digestive efficiency necessary toassimilate the food ingredients. The digestive efficiency can be reducedby stress of any sort, excitement , anxiety (travel separation, workingstress and so on. To insure optimum digestion and health we recommendthe addition of this supplement to each meal. For optimum utilizationthe supplement should be added to the food and should be moistenedshortly before feeding to be effective.
Since Merritt's enzymes are derived from plant and microbial sourcesthey are active throughout the whole gastrointestinal tract not in aspecific section, as animal derived enzymes are. These enzymes areactive from pH of 3 to 9 and at a temperature of about 100 o F. Animalderived enzymes either work in the stomach at a low pH or in theintestine at much higher pH. Since ours work over a broader range theyare active longer in the system at reducing the food into usable components.
