Promotes healthy digestion
Formulated by Dr. David W. Rowland
Dygest Pro is a broad spectrum digestive enzyme supplement. Its hydrochloric acid content improves digestion in the stomach. Its bile content emulsifies fats so that lipase enzymes can go to work on them (a must for those with no gallbladder). Hydrochloric acid and bile also destroy gastrointenstinal parasites. Pancreatin provies protease kipase and amylase enzymes in order to break down proteins, fats and starches. Papain and Bromelain are vegetable enzymes (from raw papaya and pineapple) that help break down proteins. Peppermint soothes the digestive tract and reduces flatulence.
Dygest Pro's hydrochloric acid (from betaine HCl) and pepsin go to work immediately on the food in the stomach. Its bile and pancreatin work minimmally in the stomach and become fully active when they reach the small intestine.
The acidity of Dygest Pro assures that the body makes the most productive use of its own enzymes. Low stomach pH triggers the conversion of pepsinogen (in stomach cells) into pepsin. Low stomach pH also triggers the pancreas to produce bicarbonate and pancreatin. Thus the enxymes in Dygest Pro add to the body's own enzymes rather than substitute for them. THis product does not create dependence. It makes up the diference between what the body is able to produce itself and what it needs for optimal digestion.
Suggested Use: 1 to 4 tablets per meal, depending on its content of protein and/or fat, and how weak the person's digestion is (usually a function of age). Take Dygest Pro immediately after a meal. Experiment to find the least number of tablets necessary to eliminate all digestive discomfort.

Self Test: First thing in the morning, on an empty stomach, take 1 Dygest Pro tablet. Next morning take 2. On the 3rd morning take 3 - and so on. Keep increasing the number of tablets until you feel a slight burning sensation in the stomach. Then, back off by 1 tablet and that is your optimum daily intake (eg. If a burn occurs on 5 tablets, then 4 is your daily amount). Apportion this amount according to difficulty of digesting meals (eg. 1 with breakfast, 1 with lunch and 2 with dinner).
