New Roots Herbal's Plant-Based Digestive Enzymes is a natural supplement available here in a 60-capsule bottle. It helps replenish your body with natural plant-based digestive enzymes, which we lose when eating cooked and processed foods. These enzymes help digest fats, proteins, carbohydrates, sugars, minerals, grains, and fiber.
When in its natural, raw, and unprocessed state, the food you eat contains—in addition to its many nutrients—the enzymes you need to break it down. Most of us follow a diet consisting mainly of cooked foods, and digestive enzymes are extremely sensitive to heat. In fact, they are more vulnerable to heat than vitamins, and they are destroyed by any heat source above 48 °C (118 °F); imagine what cooking does to digestive enzymes and your digestion. Digestive enzymes are also destroyed during pasteurization, canning, and microwave cooking.
