OmegaZyme delivery systems:

OmegaZyme™ comes in two
convenient delivery systems,
UltraZorbeTM caplets and powder.

UltraZorbe™caplets are specially
designed to preserve the "live"
enzymes and probiotics contained
in OmegaZyme™ and to deliver
them in the most effective time
frame possible. UltraZorbe™
caplets are produced without the
use of heat. OmegaZyme™
powder comes with a convenient
scoop and can be mixed in any
room temperature liquid or
sprinkled directly onto room
temperature or cold food.

Suggested Protocol:

• Take 1-4 caplets or scoops of
OmegaZyme™ with meals and
snacks. The quantity of enzymes
used should reflect the amount of
cooked or processed food
consumed.

• OmegaZyme™ may also be
taken on an empty stomach to aid
the body's detoxification process.

• If you're at all skeptical about the
effectiveness of these digestive
enzymes, we challenge you to
take 2-4 caplets or scoops of
Omega-Zyme™ with each meal
for 3 to 5 days, then stop taking
them altogether for 1-2 days.
You'll immediately notice the
contrast as your body goes back
to what you will now realize was
your earlier sub-par state of poor
digestion and low energy.

What Are Enzymes?

Enzymes are catalysts in the body, protein-like substances that help maintain the
tissues, orchestrate the many functions of the body, and digest food. Enzymes
can be broken down into three categories: metabolic enzymes, digestive
enzymes, and food enzymes. Metabolic enzymes spark many of the reactions
inside the cells of our body. Our organs, tissues, and cells would not work without
the help and direction of metabolic enzymes. Digestive enzymes secreted by our
own pancreas break down the nutrients contained in the foods we eat. Food
enzymes are supplied to us through the foods we eat. Food enzymes help to
break down the foods before our digestive enzymes are called upon. Food
enzymes are destroyed at temperatures above 118 degrees. All cooked and
processed foods are devoid of food enzymes.

Why Do We Need Enzymes?

Enzymes are perhaps our most important nutrients. Enzymes are responsible for
nearly every facet of life and health. When we eat raw foods, we consume the
enzymes in the foods. The foods are then digested easily by the body. When we
eat cooked or processed foods, the body must create the enzymes necessary to
digest the cooked foods. This constant need for enzymes depletes our store of
enzymes, strains the body and causes the pancreas to enlarge.

Without enzymes, we're dead. In fact, Dr. Edward Howell, the groundbreaking
physician who devoted his life to the study of enzymes, has stated in his classic
work, Food Enzymes for Health and Longevity, "After we have attained full mature
growth, there is a slow and gradual decrease in the enzyme content of our
bodies. When the enzyme content becomes so low that metabolism can't
proceed at a proper level, death overtakes us." If one does not consume proper
levels of enzymes from foods or supplements the following symptoms may occur:
excessive gas and bloating (particularly after meals), diarrhea and/or
constipation, heartburn, low energy, acne, arthritis, allergies, insomnia, high
cholesterol and many more. Once enzymes have completed their appointed task
they are destroyed. For life to continue you must have a constant enzyme supply
which requires continual replacement of enzymes. The best way to assure your
body gets the adequate amount of enzymes every day is to consume a diet high
in "live", raw and fermented foods and to consume a high potency, broad
spectrum digestive enzyme supplement such as OmegaZyme™.

A great test to experience the effectiveness of digestive enzymes is to perform the
oatmeal test. Simply take 1/2 cup of cooked oatmeal or other cooked cereal and
allow it to cool to room temperature. Add 1 caplet (crushed) or scoop of
OmegaZyme™ and begin to stir. Watch as the enzymes break down the starches,
protein, and fiber contained in the oatmeal. Seeing is believing!
