What are digestive enzymes?

Enzymes are the chemical sparks of life. Without them, many body processes could not function.
A healthy digestion and assimilation of food is dependent upon the body's secretions of sufficient enzymes.
Protease, amylase, lipase, cellulase and lactase all break down food into small components so the body can extract various nutrients from the food and use them to build tissue and maintain health.
