Probiotics & Digestive Enzymes Team Up for Your Benefit

The importance of maintaining a healthy balance of intestinal flora is well documented. In fact along with digestive enzymes, probiotics are considered one of the primary supplements to soothe a disturbed gastrointestinal tract.

Both probiotics and digestive enzymes can save the gut from symptoms associated with irritable bowel syndrome, maldigestion, nutrient malabsorption, and help maintain cell health.

Probiotic supplementation supports healthy digestion and natural immune function by replacing vital intestinal tract organisms lost to antibiotic use, disease, poor diets, stress, viral or fungal infections, or various other digestive problems.

Especially these days, value and quality are both equally important. Unfortunately, finding a quality digestive enzyme and probiotic supplement has never been easy and usually requires a trip to your local health food store. Even there with so many good brands, it is difficult to find one that truly represents value and quality. Plus, to our knowledge, a quality probiotic-digestive enzyme blend combined into a complex, sophisticated formula with proven delivery and benefits has never before been available.

Where Did My Enzymes and Bacteria Go?

Most foods today are so heavily processed and cooked that few of their digestive enzymes or beneficial bacteria remain. Our food—unless we eat raw and organic—is basically sterile and rather than promoting it, it frequently robs the life from our bodies.

Also, when we go to the health food store, unfortunately there are obstacles to delivering active cultures from the shelf to the gut because probiotics have sensitivities to temperature, moisture, air, and pH.

The experts at Metabolic Response Modifiers (MRM) have addressed our concerns with Digest-All IC with patented BIO-tract® delivery technology and a patented LiveBac® tableting process that all work to ensure probiotic viability and benefit. Because of the company's commitment to quality and value throughout its line, we've reported on and recommended MRM's Digest-All formula in past articles in The Doctors' Prescription for Healthy Living. We observed the formula’s mastery of digestive enzymes—the fact that the blend digests all types of food in a necessarily wide pH range unlike other formulas that digest only limited families of nutrients such as fats, carbohydrates, or proteins.

Digest-All IC offers intensive care for your lower GI tract by improving the original formula with a patented delivery technology designed to create a protective barrier between the fragile probiotics and the harsh stomach environment. Once in the small intestines, the protective layer releases the digestive enzymes and live probiotics. Bypassing the harsh stomach environment is essential for the introduction of active cultures to the intestines and cannot be achieved by traditional capsules, powders, or even food.

Digest-All IC's probiotic protection starts long before it gets ingested. The patented LiveBac tableting process was designed to combat the negative effects of heat, air and moisture present during conventional tableting methods. The result is a product that overcomes these obstacles to provide high-viability probiotics with an increased shelf life, even without refrigeration.

Digest-All IC is the nutrition industry's next-generation digestive care complex. Designed to promote a healthy digestive system, its full-spectrum of digestive enzymes is perfectly complemented by the most reliable, shelf-stable bio-delivery system for probiotics available.

This comprehensive collection of enzymes supports optimal digestion, minimizes gas and bloating and maximizes the assimilation of nutrients. With added probiotics, you can also expect improved immune health. Finally, the formula’s unique proprietary blend of ginger, peppermint and triphala soothes, comforts and balances the digestive process. It truly is intensive care for your GI health—and we expect a lot more good things ahead for this formula’s success in helping health-conscious consumers live a truly healthy life with added value and quality.
