The digestive system is the first line of defense for the immune system; keeping it in optimal condition benefits overall health and immunity. Probiotics and enzymes are often used to help occasional diarrhea, flatulence and foul smelling stools, and probiotics are absolutely essential for any animal receiving antibiotics or any other prescription drugs that deplete intestinal flora.

Total-Zymes® has now 16 high performance plant based enzymes to do a complete job. Digestive enzymes are very specific. They will only digest the exact food type for which they are named. As an example lipase will digest only lipids or fats as they are commonly called. Lipase will not do anything to digest protein or carbohydrates. For complete digestion you must include all the different enzymes in a product to digest each type of food ingredient. A digestive product that contains only four, five or six enzymes will do a poor job digesting the complex ingredients of today's high quality pet food.

What else can enzymes do for my pet?

In addition our product has 120,000 FCCPU of bromelain from pineapple as a systemic Enzyme. This will help support pets with Allergies, Itching and the Painful Stiff Joints of older pets.

By using, a supplemental enzyme on your pets food you free up their body's digestive system. When enzymes are missing from our pets food, the full burden of digestion falls on the pets own digestive system. This can also strain the pancreas.

You can help maintain the proper balance of bacterial flora in your pets gut and enzymes thus by supplementing with , Total-Zymes® and Total-Biotics® your pet can enjoy better health and vitality.

Always Use both Enzymes and Probiotics

Digestive Enzymes:

Domestic dogs and cats are carnivores by nature. Their ancestors lived off fresh meat rich in enzymes and complex nutrients. They supplemented their food by eating grass and dirt which were teaming with digestive aids that helped break down and process the food. Dry and canned pet foods are void of essential nutrients and digestive enzymes. We can help our pets by giving them a complete vegetarian enzyme supplement.

Add digestive enzymes when using probiotics

It is always recommended to use enzymes with probiotics for a complete digestive solution. Enzymes will help your pets digestion and absorption of their food, no matter what you feed them. A growing number of vets are stating that cooked or processed pet food is the main cause of illness and premature death in the modern house pet! Animals are meant to eat a 100% raw diet, but is that practical. So adding enzymes with probiotics makes it a complete digestion solution. Total-Zymes® is formulated with 16 types of vegetarian enzymes.

Enzymes take the stress off my pets pancreas.

Yes: the primary benefit is in shifting a portion of the digestive burden from pancreatic enzymes in the intestine to fungal enzymes in the stomach. Continued supplementation over a period of days activates a feedback system to the pancreas, signaling it to decrease production of its enzymes. This allows the pancreas, primarily an endocrine organ, to conserve its cellular machinery for production of insulin and glucagon; which are important in blood glucose maintenance.

One of the most asked questions is; Can I use this product for a mineral supplement?

Answer is, NO! The minerals are only for activating the enzymes. After the enzymes are used there are no minerals left. So there are no minerals left to add any to your pet's diet.

Why do probiotics or enzymes sometimes cause nausea or vomiting..

When the health of an animal has been compromised for some time, things can start out worse before getting better. This is sometimes called a "cleansing" or a "healing crisis". Experiencing digestive upset with probiotic or enzymes use is most likely caused by the feeding of poor quality commercial pet food that is hard to break down and digest. What happens is the food you feed them moves slowly through the intestines allowing some fecal plaque to adhere to your dog's intestinal walls. Once it gets a toehold, it may thicken over time. Even fairly young animals can experience some blockage as a result of this build up. Probiotics and enzymes will slowly begin to dissolve the fecal matter, and during this clearing/cleansing process, pathogens and microbes that were covered up with layers of fecal matter will be exposed and can cause episodes of diarrhea or vomiting. Depending on the buildup, it may take a few months before it is completely removed. To help restore your animal's health and happiness we suggest a healthier, more digestible diet and reducing the dosage of probiotics and enzymes to a level tolerated by your animal, building back up gradually as your animal begins to feel better.
