POWERFUL: Contains the highest combined enzyme potency (activity) per capsule of any of the currently available plant source digestive enzyme formulas, as rneasured by FCC Methods. One capsule is equivalent to 2-20 capsules of other formulations.
COST EFFECTIVE AND CONVENIENT: One capsule is often sufficient to aid digestion of an entire meal.
DUAL FUNCTION: May be taken with food, or can an empty stomach for proteolytic activity.
SPECIALLY FORMULATED: Designed by a world leader with decades of experience in enzyme formula production. Specifically formulated to provide the WIDEST range of useful digestive enzymes to help break down foods, absorb nutrients and prevent maldigestion, gas, and bloating. Optimum digestion involves breaking down more than just starch, protein, fiber, and fats. Some food groups need several types of enzymes to become fully digested and to allow all the nutrients to be available for assimilation. Five different types of Protease are included to assure digestion of proteins over the entire pH range from pH 2.0 to pH 11.0 as found in the stomach and small intestine. Other formulas may only include one or two types of Protease. Total Gest contains other enzymes not often found together in one formula, such as phytase and hemicellulase, invertase, alpha-galactosidase, and peptidase. These each have specific roles for Total Digestion. Please see the explanation of each enzyme's function below.
BROAD ACTIVITY RANGE: Designed to work effectively taking into account the range of pH conditions found in different individuals' intestinal tracts due to age, health, ability to secrete acid, etc.
FAST ACTING: One capsule will often relieve the bloated feeling of indigestion in minutes after it is swallowed.
STANDARDIZED POTENCY: Activity of all enzymes is specified by the latest FCC standard analytical methods. Each capsule is standardized to contain the enzyme activities listed on the label.
PROPERLY PACKAGED & PROTECTED: All bottles are sealed with an induction seal, and contain both a desiccant and an oxygen absorber to protect against moisture and oxidative degradation.
ALL VEGETARIAN FORMULA: In vegetable capsules.
Total-Gest® is the most potent plant-derived digestive enzyme supplement available. Total-Gest offers:
17 different plant-derived digestive enzymes, to digest all food types
All enzymes measured in U.S. standard FCC units
A powerful formula that is economical and convenient
You will never see enzymes listed in milligrams on a Total-Gest label. Milligram counts provide no information on actual enzyme activity. An enzyme’s digestive power is a function of amount and activity level. The standard measure to express an enzyme’s digestive power is a FCC (Food Chemical Code) unit.
A truly complete enzyme formula means more than just having an enzyme for every food group. The stomach, full and resting, goes through multiple pH changes through the course of a single day. A truly complete enzyme formula contains enzymes active in a wide pH range for each food group: sugars, fiber, proteins, fats and starches. Just one capsule can help digest an entire meal.
