Enzymes have been known for years to be effective in aiding the body to properly use the nutrients provided in food and other supplements. This is particularly helpful with regard to proper digestion. Equally as important, but not nearly as well known, is the fact that enzymes play a critical role in promoting healthy joints and a healthy response to body inflammation.

Research shows that, in addition to other factors, joint pain and gout stem from undigested proteins and fats which form uric acid crystals that, in turn, get "caught" in joints. Enzymes stimulate the healthy production of cytokines that stop inflammation. They also aid the body in cleaning up undigested food, debris and circulating immune complexes which cause joints to become irritated and swell.

Eniva’s Joint-Zyme is a nutritional enzyme support formula, containing specific nutritional components shown in clinical studies to support the normal and healthy function of joints and overall body health.* By helping keep the body free from inflammation, natural healing and normal joint health can be achieved.*

Frequently Asked Questions about Enzymes

WHAT ARE ENZYMES?Enzymes are energized protein molecules, originated from acids. They are formed only from organic, living matter, and catalyze as well as regulate nearly all functions within the human body. Enzymes digest all our food, and make it small enough to pass through the pores of the intestine into the blood. They turn the food we eat into energy and unlock the energy throughout the body.

Coenzymes, which come from essential vitamins and minerals, are needed for enzymes to function properly. In other words, enzymes need trace minerals in order to be activated. When the activation process occurs, the particles within the enzymes become charged. This “charge” works similar to electricity, and allows the body to transmit critical messages from one cell to another.

WHERE DO WE GET ENZYMES?Enzymes come from two sources - one being endogenous, those that originate from within bodies. The other is exogenous, or those that we consume from outside our bodies. A good supplement will have substantial amounts of three exogenous enzymes - protease, amylase and lipase. Protease digests proteins, amylase digests carbohydrates and lipase digests fats.

HOW DO ENZYMES AID IN DIGESTION?Ensuring that food is fully and properly digested is one of the main keys to the human body functioning properly. Major problems in the bloodstream, intestines and colon can result from undigested food. Completely digested foods are the solution to many problems. The body can function properly if the food we are eating is being digested properly. On the contrary, it is impossible for the body to function properly if we are not digesting our food properly. A quality digestive enzyme product will improve the digestion of raw or cooked food.

It is important to remember that enzymes are energy and when we take enzymes regularly with food, we actually use the energy in the enzymes to aid in digestion. This will conserve the body’s energy for more important tasks like protecting or repairing. People that do not use an effective digestive enzyme may use up to 50% or more of the body’s energy while trying to digest food.

WHAT ABOUT ENZYMES AND AGING?Enzymes can fight the aging process by increasing the blood supply to the skin. Improved circulation brings nutrients to the skin and helps eliminate the waste products that can make the skin look dull and wrinkled.

HOW DO ENZYMES FIGHT DISEASE?When eating cooked and processed foods over a long period of time, we are eliminating the healthy enzymes that naturally existed in the raw food. Continual consumption of these types of foods exhausts the digestive organs until they can no longer function properly. By middle age, many people have as much as 20 pounds of undigested putrefactive food in their colon. The toxins produced buildup and seriously weaken the immune system. This can lead to debilitating health conditions. Healthy cellular replication in the Colon is one of the most prevalent health challenges in the United States. Enzymes act as scavengers in the blood and lymph. When cooked or processed food enters the body, the enzymes work to fight off the pathogens introduced into the digestive system by that food.

CAN ENZYMES REVERSE PHYSICAL PROBLEMS AND DISEASE?We know that only the human body has the ability to heal itself, but even the amazing human body needs our help. In order for the human body to work correctly, you must support your body daily with vitamins, ionic minerals and digestive enzymes. Also, eat as many raw foods as possible (they are much better for you than cooked foods).

Digestive problems are generally a sure sign of oncoming disease. An evaluation of you stool is often a worthwhile exercise. When your stool sinks it is heavy because there are still nutrients or undigested foods within it. It also shows a problem digesting food properly. When the nutrients within the food are completely digested, the stool will be light, fluffy, and will float. The stool will also be absent of foul odor. With enzymes, most people will see their stool float within a couple of weeks to a month.

AREN’T ANIMAL ENZYMES JUST AS EFFECTIVE?Enzymes from animals like trypsin, pepsin and pancreatin work in a very narrow pH range and to a limited degree in the stomach and small intestines. Unfortunately, they don’t aid at all in digestion that occurs in the upper part of the stomach. When the stomach’s pH is too high, they are inactive.

WHY CAN’T I JUST GET ENZYMES FROM RAW FOODS I EAT?The food enzymes within raw foods don’t have the potency of digestive enzymes, especially in protease and lipase. This potency along with high activity is why a digestive enzyme supplement is such a great aid to the human body. It would take many pounds of fresh foods to equal one dose of digestive enzymes.

WHAT IS THE CORRECT DOSAGE OF ENZYMES?We recommend you take 6-9 capsules of Eniva Enzymes a day. Anything less may not give your body the digestive assistance it needs. Most companies recommend 90 capsules for a month supply. We suggest taking 2 capsules with every meal.

IS IT OK TO TAKE ENZYMES BEFORE YOU EAT?No. Enzymes are meant to help you digest the food you eat. It is best to take the enzymes during or immediately after the meal.

HOW QUICKLY CAN RESULTS BE SEEN?Most people having acid indigestion, upset stomach bloating, or problems with digestion will usually see immediate results. People having problems with bowel movements will usually see improvement within a week or two. Many people will see increased energy within a couple of weeks to a month. Almost everyone will see dramatic improvements within 3 months. The people who see the best results are people that continue to take digestive enzymes daily with food and on an empty stomach.

WHAT IF I HAVE A VERY SENSITIVE STOMACH?If you know your body is sensitive to most supplements, begin slowly with the enzymes. You might want to just take them with meals for a week or so, to allow your body to adjust to the product.

CAN ENZYMES HELP MY WEIGHT PROBLEM?Yes. Most people that are overweight are low on lipase within the body. The correct amount of lipase will help many people with digestion, assisting with blood and weight problems.

CAN I TAKE DIGESTIVE ENZYMES IF I AM TAKING MEDICATIONS OR PRESCRIPTIONS?Yes. The Food & Drug Administration (FDA) classifies digestive enzymes as a food. If, for some reason, you doctor has told you not to eat food while taking medication, then avoid digestive enzymes.
