Enzymes in Digestive System: How They Work and Why They Matter
Digestion is a complex process that relies on various biochemical agents to break down food into absorbable nutrients. Among these agents, enzymes in the digestive system play a vital role. Produced in the mouth, stomach, pancreas, and intestines, digestive enzymes help decompose carbohydrates, proteins, and fats for proper absorption.
Insufficient enzyme activity can lead to issues such as bloating, malabsorption, and nutrient deficiencies. Traditional Chinese Medicine takes a unique view, supporting enzyme production through herbal formulas, acupuncture, and food therapy. By enhancing Spleen and Stomach Qi, TCM encourages more effective digestion and nutrient uptake.
