The October issue of WholeFoods Magazine has a feature on Digestion Aids. Dan Kaur Weamer, clinical nutritionist, is among the experts quoted in the story.

Here are Weamer’s quotes:

On this front, Dan Kaur Weamer, director of technical services at Enzymes, Inc., Parkville, MO, recommends probiotic formulas that “combine four or five probiotic strains that colonize the bowel in high numbers—preferably three billion or more viable organisms.”

Says Weamer of Enzymes, Inc., “In supporting proper digestion with enzyme supplements, you’re relieving digestive stress from the pancreas. This helps the body conserve energy that supports and helps maintain a healthy immune system. In addition, complete digestion of food reduces the chance that partially digested food will cross the gut barrier. When this happens, there’s a negative immune reaction to the foreign substance (improperly digested food), which places major stress on the body.”

The story mentions WellZymes™ Colon Health, WellZymes™ Digestive Health and WellZymes™ Gastric Ease™ as “Select Digestive Health Offerings.”
