Results showed that the risk of developing atherosclerosis of the aorta at a young age (< 55 for men, < 65 for women) was 9 times higher for people with a parent who has suffered from the condition than for those who did not have any family history of the disease.
Fats, such as the fats in milk, need to be digested by your body. They are broken down into fatty acids and glycerol by an enzyme called lipase. Gastric lipase, secreted by the stomach lining, has a pH value for optimal activity around neutrality and would appear, therefore, to be essentially inactive in the strongly acid environment of the stomach.
Vitabase SuperZymes contains all three. Amylase enzymes break down starches or carbohydrates and are found naturally in the mouth saliva as well as the pancreatic and intestinal liquids. Protease enzymes are used to break down proteins and are found in the pancreatic and intestinal fluids. Lipase aids in fat digestion. Two other helpful enzymes included in this formula are bromelain and papain. Bromelain comes from pineapple, and papain is from papaya. Bromelain assists in protein digestion.
