A laboratory study showed 1 capsule of Lypo Gold breaking down up to 22 grams of fat in just 30 minutes. Uncomfortable indigestion is simply a result of incomplete food digestion. Our bodies naturally produce digestive enzymes that work to break down food into nutrients the body can absorb and utilise. The enzyme protease breaks down protein, amylase breaks down carbohydrates and the enzyme lipase is essential for digesting fats. Therefore, not having enough lipase necessary to break down fat content causes the occasional digestive discomforts associated with consuming fatty foods. To optimise fat digestion and to support the digestive system during breakfast, lunch and dinner, Lypo Gold provides high potency enzymes specific for fat, carbohydrate and protein digestion. Providing quick and efficient fat digestion may help to relieve discomfort associated with the digestion of fatty foods. By aiding the digestive system, enzyme supplementation takes stress off the gallbladder, liver and pancreas making it easier to digest foods and ensuring absorption of nutrients from the foods you eat. Although enzymes digest food when taken with meals, enzymes also have a therapeutic benefit when taken on an empty stomach. When taken one to two hours before or after a meal, Lypo Gold may support cardiovascular health by maintaining healthy cholesterol levels already in the normal range.
