- The activity of pancreatic enzymes in the small intestine is dependent upon an alkaline pH ranging from pH 7 to pH 8. Food intolerances may be a result of improper digestion of proteins, fats and carbohydrates due to insufficient levels of alkaline carbonate, which normally allows pancreatic enzymes to break down food molecules efficiently prior to absorption. Bio-Carbonate provides carbonates in the form of sodium and potassium salts to help maintain the correct pH for efficient enzymatic activity and subsequent food digestion. |

- The fibre in whole foods, such as fruits and vegetables provides a natural substrate for the production of butyric acid, a short chain fatty acid produced by the normal bowel flora which is the end result of the bacterial breakdown of dietary fibre. Butyric acid feeds the epithelial mucosa cells lining the gut wall and is essential in maintaining the integrity of the gastrointestinal wall. |

- Calcidophilus provides a source of bio-available, milk-free calcium. During the growing process of the Lactobacillus acidophilus, calcium carbonate is fed to the friendly bacteria which incorporates the calcium into its own structure. When the L acidophilus has digested sufficient calcium it is freeze-dried and encapsulated, then vacuum packed into glass bottles. Generally, ordinary calcium carbonate is poorly absorbed. When ingested the calcium-rich L. |

- Carbozyme provides amylase, an enzyme that digests starch and carbohydrates in foods such as potatoes, rice, cereals, beans and all legumes. Amylase is normally produced by the salivary glands in the mouth, by the pancreas and by the small intestine. Its function is to breakdown carbohydrates, which are usually in the form of polysaccharides, to disaccharides and then to monosaccharides. Improper or incomplete digestion of carbohydrates may cause a variety of situations such as bloating, flatulence, low energy levels and improper digestion which reduces nutrient availability. |

- Cranberries and fresh cranberry juice have long been employed in Europe, especially in Germany as a natural means of maintaining the health of the urinary system. Unfortunately, most cranberry juice is pasteurised to prevent it from spoilage, however, nutritionists prefer fresh, unpasteurised extracts.

Freeze-dried, powdered cranberries are an ideal and convenient alternative to fresh, unpasteurised cranberry juice.
