Role of digestive enzymes
Digestive enzymes break down food to its building blocks, so they can be optimally absorbed in the intestinal tract.

The human body produces three main types of enzymes: amylase, protease and lipase, each of which performs specific functions.

Amylase - an enzyme responsible for breaking down starch and complex carbohydrates in their simple sugar subunits. The most common amylase in the human body is alpha-amylase. In amylase deficiency, consumption of the components described above causes flatulence and bloating.
Protease - helps break down proteins contained in foods such as meat, dairy products, nuts and legumes. The inability to properly break down protein leads to the development of inflammation in the body and putrefactive processes in the gastrointestinal tract.
Lipase - breaks down fats into free fatty acids, which are easily absorbed in the intestines. Lipase is needed to break down both unhealthy saturated fats and the beneficial fats found in fish oil, olive oil and other beneficial products.
Lactase - stimulates the absorption of the primary sugar found in milk, called lactose. Its deficiency is a common condition known as lactose intolerance.
Cellulase - an enzyme that is naturally generated by bacteria, protozoa and symbiotic fungi and helps break down cellulose. The human body is unable to produce cellulase. Therefore, when eating plant foods, for the full absorption of all cellulose fibers contained in them, it is necessary to take cellulase in the form of food supplements.
Invertase - a digestive enzyme that breaks down sucrose into its main components - fructose and glucose. Invertase deficiency reduces the body's ability to extract vital components from the foods we eat on a daily basis and leads to a decline in immune defenses.
Bromelain - an enzyme contained in pineapple that helps break down proteins. When used in combination with other enzymes such as amylase and lipase, bromelain relieves indigestion and reduces bloating and gas, which are major symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome.
Papain - another enzyme that breaks down proteins that can be found and extracted from the unripe fruit of the papaya. Papain is involved in the breakdown of protein fibers.
