AIM PrepZymes® Q & A
Who should use AIM PrepZymes®?
If you believe that you are not digesting foods well, you should
use digestive enzymes. In addition, we have fewer enzymes as we age,
so we should always consider using digestive enzymes as we grow
older.
May children and pregnant women take AIM PrepZymes®?
Yes, they may. Both children and pregnant women should take the
usual adult serving of one capsule before or during each meal.
However, when using dietary supplements, it is recommended that you
consult your healthcare practitioner.
Is there anyone who should not take AIM PrepZymes®?
Yes, it is recommended that those with gastritis or gastric or
duodenal ulcers not use AIM PrepZymes®.
If we take enzymes orally, aren’t they destroyed by stomach acid
before they can do anything?
According to Santillo, this is not true. In his book Food Enzymes
(1993), he cites university research that has shown that
supplemental enzymes pass through the stomach uninjured. In one
study, the enzyme amylase digested starch in the stomach and then
moved into the small intestine, where it continued digestion.
Santillo (1993) also notes that foods are predigested by enzymes in
the upper portion of the stomach, which is known as the cardiac
stomach. According to Henry Gray’s Anatomy of the Human Body (1918),
“The cardiac portion of the stomach is a food reservoir in which
salivary digestion continues. The pyloric [lower stomach] portion is
the seat of active gastric digestion.”
May I take AIM PrepZymes® with AIM FloraFood™ or other AIM products?
You may take AIM PrepZymes® with other AIM products. AIM
PrepZymes® and AIM FloraFood™ are both best taken with meals.
However, AIM PrepZymes® will break down the bacteria in AIM
FloraFood™, so take these products with alternate meals.
