Why dough stretches
Gluten is not a substance that exists on its own in wheat. It only forms when you mix flour with water: the proteins gliadin and glutenin then together form an elastic network. This is what makes bread dough stretch and hold the gases from the yeast. In the 1940s, the Dutch paediatrician Willem-Karel Dicke was the first to link wheat to coeliac disease.
Made in the United States
Doctor's Best has the capsules made in the United States. Glutalytic® is a plant-based enzyme blend, made by fermentation. The capsule is plant-based and the product is vegan.
Facts about this product
One capsule contains 350 mg Glutalytic®. Take one before each meal. With coeliac disease a strict gluten-free diet remains necessary; these enzymes are not a substitute for it.
Gluten Rescue with Glutalytic by Doctor's Best
Gluten Rescue with Glutalytic® is a patented blend of protein-splitting enzymes (proteases) that help break down gluten and other protein compounds such as egg, soy and dairy. Glutalytic® contains multiple protease enzymes. It is specifically designed to break down the peptide compounds of gluten. The product also contains the enzymes DPP-IV and aspergillopepsin and breaks down protein compounds in various ways.
Peptide compounds such as gluten
Gluten is a protein that consists of gliadin and glutenin and is found in various cereals, such as wheat, rye, spelled, kamut and barley. Gluten is found in many pasta, bread, cake and pastry products. Enzymes are produced in the body to digest the food we eat. However, various factors can interfere with enzyme production. The product Gluten Rescue ensures that protein compounds are properly broken down within the body.
Benefits
Mix of protease enzymes, with DPP-IV and aspergillopepsin. Specifically developed to break down peptide compounds of gluten. Highly effective due to multiple enzymes. Does not contain gluten; GMO-free. Suitable for vegans and vegetarians.
Endopeptidases and exopeptidases
Glutalytic® contains both endopeptidases and exopeptidases, allowing long unhydrolysed gluten proteins to be broken down into amino acids that can then be digested and absorbed by the body. Gluten is not only found in bread and pasta, but is also widely used as an additive in processed foods (whether for texture or taste).
Quantum effects of enzymes
Enzymes do essential work throughout our body. They are catalysts for biochemical reactions inside cells and can accelerate these processes up to a trillion times. How does this work? Enzymes make use of what in quantum mechanics is called the tunneling effect. A particle passes through a barrier. Imagine it like this: the particle doesn't have enough energy to go over a high mountain, but it can teleport itself through a kind of tunnel. It disappears on one side of the mountain and reappears on the other side at the same time. Without tunneling, enzymes would never be able to accelerate chemical reactions to the extent that they do.
Cautionary note
This product supports the body in its uptake of gluten compounds. However, be careful with the autoimmune disease celiac disease. People with celiac disease who eat gluten and are also taking this product can still experience adverse reactions and abdominal complaints.
