Systemic Enzymes and Digestive Enzymes
Systemic Enzymes and Digestive Enzymes how it functions in the human body
Systemic enzymes and digestive enzymes are two types of enzymes that play different roles in the human body.
Systemic enzymes are enzymes that circulate throughout the body and are responsible for a variety of functions, including breaking down proteins, supporting the immune system, and reducing inflammation. They can be found in various foods and also in supplement form. Systemic enzymes are typically taken on an empty stomach, and are thought to work by breaking down proteins in the bloodstream that are associated with inflammation and other chronic health conditions.
Digestive enzymes, on the other hand, are enzymes that are produced in the body and are responsible for breaking down food in the digestive system. These enzymes are produced in the salivary glands, stomach, pancreas, and small intestine, and include enzymes such as amylase, lipase, and protease. They work by breaking down large molecules of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into smaller molecules that can be absorbed and utilized by the body.
Both types of enzymes are important for overall health, but they have different functions.
Digestive enzymes are essential for breaking down the food we eat, while systemic enzymes have a broader scope of action and are important for overall health and well-being.
It is important to note that some enzymes supplements are marketed as "digestive enzymes" but they are in fact systemic enzymes as they don't have the specific enzymes to breakdown specific types of food molecules and they are taken on an empty stomach.
It is also important to consult a healthcare professional before taking any enzyme supplement, as some enzymes might interact with medications you're taking or with pre-existing conditions you have.
