Product description
Support digestive function, nutrient absorption, energy production, and immune health with CT-Zyme. This proprietary blend of 11 digestive enzymes - including amylase, beta glucanase, bromelain, and cellulase - assist the body in digesting high-fiber and nutrient-dense foods, such as beans, fruit, grains, lentils, and vegetables. Each enzyme in CT-Zyme functions at a specific pH, which makes the enzymes effective at every stage of digestion as it passes through the gastrointestinal tract. When taken with meals, CT-Zyme acts as a digestive enzyme. When taken 1-2 hours away from food, it acts as a proteolytic enzyme.
- Balances energy, digestion, and immune function
- Encourages nutrient absorption and utilization
- Supports gastrointestinal difficulty
- Formulated with Carbon Technology
Deep dive into CT-Zyme
CT-Zyme is a new combination of digestive enzymes powered by Carbon Technology that provides next level digestive support. Digestive enzymes work by breaking chemical bonds within carbohydrates, fats, and proteins to allow the body to make use of those nutrients. Healthy digestion is key for optimal nutrient uptake from food, maximizing energy levels, and maintaining a properly functioning immune system. However, the body does not naturally produce all digestive enzymes in useful amounts to fully digest consumed foods. Aging, digestive problems, specific medications, and stress can also interfere with the body's enzyme production, making digestion more challenging. Digestive enzymes can help to improve nutrient utilization and are critical to keeping the digestive tract running smoothly. Each enzyme functions at a particular pH, making this product effective at different stages of digestion as it passes through the gastrointestinal tract.
Carbon Technology is a proprietary blend of fulvic acids and polysaccharides that support cellular repair and the body's natural ability to detoxify.* With a low pH, Carbon Technology also helps protect ingredients from being digested by stomach acid, so that they remain intact as they enter the desired location in the body.
As part of the protocol
CT-Zyme is included in Optimise B of the Comprehensive Protocol. CT-Zyme is suitable to take at any point in time to support digestion. Note that your practitioner may recommend taking it at different stages, based on your unique needs.
Frequently asked questions
Can CT-Zyme cause symptoms? Bloating, gas, and stomach discomfort are potential side effects with taking CT-Zyme. If this occurs, reduce dosage to sensitive or half of a sensitive dose and work back up to the standard dose.
Does CT-Zyme have to be taken with food, or can it be taken without? CT-Zyme can be taken with or without food - but the time of day that you take it will slightly change its function. If you experience digestive symptoms during and after meals, you can take CT-Zyme with food for enhanced digestive support. If you take CT-Zyme away from meals, it will function as a proteolytic enzyme, which not only aids in protein digestion, but offers additional immune and detox support.
Does CT-Zyme interact with any medications or have contraindications? Yes. Fungal amylase, an ingredient in CT-Zyme, may interact with pharmaceuticals Acarbose and Miglitol which are drugs used to treat type II diabetes. Take CT-Zyme two hours away from any prescribed medications or supplements.
