The human {digestive_system} digestive system is responsible for taking nutrients from the different foods we eat and drink and breaking them down into substances suitable for absorption that takes place in the intestines. The intestinal environment requires a certain pH balance throughout (as does our entire body), in order to maintain appropriate beneficial species of intestinal flora, that are needed to perform a number of important functions. The term "pH" refers to the degree of acidity or alkalinity of our body chemistry. The actual letters "pH, " stand for "potential of hydrogen" scale. Water, for example, has a pH value of 7.0 which is considered neutral – neither acid or alkaline. Any value above 7.0 is considered alkaline and any value below 7.0 is considered acid. The ideal range for the human body lies anywhere between 6.0 and 6.8, because our bodies are by nature mildly acidic. The ingredients in Zymex Capsules work to promote and maintain this healthy pH range in the intestinal tract.
Zymex is actually made from a culture that we grow. We take red beets, beet leaves and wheat germ, make a bed out of the mixture, sterilize it and seed it with a certain culture. Then we put the culture under ideal moisture and temperature conditions and let it grow. After about three nights and two days, a beautiful gray mold has grown. It looks just like velvet. We dry the mold in a sigmoid dryer and make wafers out of it -- that is Zymex.
Zymex is similar to {lactic_acid_yeast} in that it breaks down carbohydrate in the gastrointestinal tract to produce lactic acid, thereby acidifying the gastrointestinal tract. It's also very effective in detoxifying the colon. Zymex combines the functions of Lactic Acid Yeast and {cholacol_ii}.
If instead of going through these steps we were to centrifuge the juice off the mold then vacuum dry the juice, we could create {arginex}. Arginex detoxifies the kidneys; Zymex detoxifies the bowel.
* Caution: People who are lactose-intolerant should avoid taking Zymex Capsules.
Wheat germ provides a rich source of essential fatty acids, B-complex vitamins, and fiber to promote healthy functioning of the digestive tract. Beets help moisten the intestines to encourage healthy peristalsis and help maintain regularity.*
The human digestive tract is home to hundreds of species of "friendly" micro-flora. Among many other things, they collectively help in the proper functioning of the entire digestive system. Two of the species are responsible for controlling the pH balance in the large intestine. The ingredients found in Zymex Capsules work together to provide a healthy intestinal environment to support the growth of important intestinal flora and to maintain proper digestive function.*
Once the delicate balance of micro-flora in the intestine is tipped, the body’s ability to process important nutrients and maintain itself becomes compromised. Zymex Capsules help the body maintain the natural balance of intestinal flora.*
