DESCRIPTION
Nutrition Dynamics, Inc.® a
Douglas Laboratories®, and Wobenzym® Authorized Distributor the leading provider of dietary supplements, is proud to
offer the authentic German formula of Wobenzym® N. This well known enzyme
preparation is designed to promote healthy joints and muscles, support healthy
circulation, strengthen the immune system, and support healthy aging.†
FUNCTIONS
For over 60 years, Wobenzym® has been a trusted name for enzyme supplementation.
Developed by leading scientists and used by millions of people worldwide,
Wobenzym® N has proven to be a safe and useful product.
In the human body, hundreds of chemical reactions occur during the course of
normal metabolic processes. Many chemical reactions require significant energy
in order to take place, and therefore need a catalyst to allow the reaction to
proceed. The catalyst acts to lower the energy needed for the reaction to move
forward. In the body, enzymes play the role of the catalyst and allow reactions
to take place that otherwise would not occur. The enzyme itself is not consumed
in this process and can be utilized again and again. Enzymes are relatively
unique to each reaction and different enzymes will catalyze different reactions.
Structurally, enzymes are complex molecules that are comprised of amino acid
chains and can sometimes include co-factors which assist the enzyme in the
chemical reaction. Some enzymes are sensitive to changes in pH and temperature
and can be destroyed if exposed to less than ideal conditions.
Wobenzym® N is a systemic enzyme formulation that contains enzymes from both
plants and animals that haves been clinically studied for supporting numerous
processes in the body. Systemic enzyme supplements work directly in the body
once they are absorbed in the small intestine, and are not intended to aid in
digestion. Consequently, these enzymes can be utilized to assist the body’s
various regulatory and communications systems. Wobenzym® N can help to support
healthy joints and muscles, support healthy circulation, support the immune
system, and also can help support processes that are involved in healthy aging.†
Wobenzym® N tablets are enteric coated to ensure
that the enzymes are protected and are not broken down in the stomach. This
allows the enzymes to reach the small intestine where absorption may occur.
INDICATIONS
Wobenzym® N may be a useful dietary supplement for individuals wishing to
support healthy joint, immune and circulatory function.
