Enzymes - Frequently Asked Questions

What are digestive enzymes?

Digestive enzymes are specialized proteins your body makes to aid digestion by helping to break down the food you eat into substances your intestines can absorb. Digestive enzymes are a key part of your digestive health. Digestive enzyme supplements may help support digestion.*

Some of our enzyme supplements, like our Mega-Zyme®, provide digestive and systemic support.* Others offer more targeted digestive support.* For instance, Gluten Defense™ contains gluten and casein digestive enzymes to help the digestion of wheat and dairy, while Lactase Enzyme contains lactase to support dairy digestion.*

When should I take digestive enzymes?

Generally, digestive enzymes are taken with meals; however, we recommend you always check the product label for the best guidance. For instance, our Mega-Zyme® enzyme supplements can be taken between meals to reduce occasional soreness and muscle discomfort from over-exertion.* However, to best aid digestion it should be taken with food.* Our Gluten Defense™ is best taken with meals and Lactase Enzyme is most effective when taken just before a meal.

What is the best systemic enzyme supplement?

Every individual is unique, so finding the systemic enzyme supplement that works best for you is the goal. The Nature’s Way enzyme supplement Mega-Zyme® combines systemic enzymes with digestive enzymes to help relieve occasional muscle discomfort due to overuse and help support digestion of food.*

What are systemic enzymes?

While digestive enzymes work in your digestive tract, systemic enzymes work throughout your body.* Systemic enzymes can help relieve occasional muscle soreness resulting from over-exertion.* For instance, Nature’s Way Mega-Zyme® includes digestive enzymes for digestion support, while its systemic enzymes can help ease occasional muscle soreness from exercise.*
