“Proteolytic enzymes are the Swiss Army knife of dietary supplements in that a single dose of these miracle enzymes offers multiple benefits. Also known as proteases, these enzymes travel through the bloodstream to break down proteins that are one of the 3Ds: dead, damaged or don’t belong.*
Enzymes are fast-acting, so if you take them with your food, proteases will only break down the protein in your food. If taken in between meals, however, proteases can be absorbed into the bloodstream to do a clean sweep throughout the body, clearing out 3D proteins and providing systemic benefits.*”
