Help with Gas and Bloating

Understanding Digestive Enzymes

Is Gas & Bloating a Problem for YOU?

First of all, one must understand that Gas & Bloating
can be caused by several different problems, the four
most common being ……

1. A Sluggish Bowel – Bowels should operate by the
"Bulk-in = Bulk-out" principle. If this is not happening,
fecal matter is sitting in the bowel and fermenting, which
causes gas & bloating ….. If this is the case, make sure
your diet contains lots of water and fibre.
Herbal Laxative
is recommended

2. Lack of Intestinal Microflora – From the bottom of the
stomach through to the rectum (which is a 26 foot muscular
tube) we need 3 to 5 pounds of intestinal microflora. If there
is a deficiency of microflora, you WILL have gas and bloating ….
If this is the case, use Good Bacteria.

3. Food Allergies – if you are allergic to foods, a common
symptom of food allergies, is gas and bloating.….. If this is
the case, avoid eating those foods.

4. Lack of Digestive Enzymes – As the body ages, many
people lose the ability to produce enough of the needed
enzymes to digest fats, sugars, proteins or complex
carbohydrates. This causes uncomfortable gastrointestinal
distress. including gas & bloating ….. If this is the case,
use Simiple Digestion Aid. Simiple Digestion Aid is a comprehensive digestive
enzyme product that contains five different digestive enzymes:

a. Lactase Enzyme: Breaks down lactose, or milk sugar,
found in dairy products
b. Alpha d-galactosidase: Breaks down complex sugars in
gas-producing vegetables such as beans, cabbage,
cauliflower, broccoli, etc.
c. Protease: breaks down protein in meats and legumes
d. Amylase: breaks down starchy carbohydrates in foods
such as bread, pasta, potatoes
e. Lipase: breaks down fats in food

Just ONE little Simiple Digestion Aid capsule offers relief after meals that
cause digestive discomfort. It is plant-based and acid-resistant,
to survive breakdown by stomach acid.
