Die Ernährungsmedizin rückt gerade einen lange übersehenen Faktor ins Rampenlicht: Verdauungsenzyme. Ob Blähbauch nach dem Salat, schweres Gefühl nach Pasta oder das latente „Food-Koma“ – immer mehr Studien zeigen, dass nicht primär Gluten, FODMAPs & Co. das Problem sind, sondern ein Enzym-Mismatch im Darm.

Was die Forschung 2024/25 sagt

In a randomized double-blind study involving 120 patients, a broadly diversified enzyme mixturepostprandial dyspepsia by 46 % - after just four weeks.
A review in the Frontiers in Nutrition emphasizes that added enzymes "accelerate protein, fat and carbohydrate digestion, improve nutrient absorption and buffer food intolerances".

„Mit zunehmendem Alter verlieren wir offensichtlich enzymatische PS – Supplementierung kann diese Lücke schließen“, fasst Dr. Milan Rémond, Gastroenterologe der Universität Clermont, die Datenlage zusammen.

Aging digestive organs produce measurably less protease and lipase; researchers link this decline to more frequent flatulence, heartburn and malabsorption in older age.

From the plate to the cell - why enzymes are the bottleneck

Food molecules are big puzzles. Only when Proteases, lipases, amylases, lactases and cellulases As they break down into tiny particles, they can enter the blood and cells via the intestinal wall. However, cooking, frying or ultra-high heating destroy the natural food enzymes from approx. 48 °C. If you add stress, medication (PPI, antibiotics) and age-related decline, a digestive machine remains idle.

Digezyme® - a multi-enzyme complex that starts right here

Natura Vitalis therefore relies on Digezyme®a patented mix of five highly pure, microbially fermented enzymes:

Alpha-amylase - breaks down starch/carbohydrates
Protease - breaks down animal & vegetable protein
Lipase - Makes fats bioavailable, relieves the liver & pancreas
Lactase - Cracks lactose, reduces lactose complaints
Cellulase - opens plant fibers, improves vegetable digestion

The enzymes are dosed precisely so that they do not block each other in the intestine, but work synergistically.

More than "just" digestion

Recent microbiome research indicates that well-split nutrient fragments more favorable bacterial profiles promote. Enzymes could thus indirectly influence inflammation, blood sugar peaks and even mood - keyword gut-brain axis. The trend towards an "enzyme-first" strategy is therefore getting a tailwind from longevity experts such as Dr. Valter Longowho describes them in his latest book as "low-hanging fruit for healthy ageing".

Digestive enzymes have long been inconspicuous laboratory terms. However, modern studies show that when the body's own scissors become blunt, it is not just the stomach that suffers, but our entire metabolism.
