Digestive enzyme support – Terrazyme

🌱 TerraZyme… our little digestion helpers!

You know that heavy, bloated, “why did I eat that” feeling after a big meal? Yep, we’ve all been there! 😅

dōTERRA TerraZyme is a powerhouse digestive enzyme supplement designed to support and optimise your digestion, and it’s one we keep on the table at mealtimes.

🧠 First, a few gut health facts

Your gut is SO much more than a food tube!

– It’s often called your “second brain”, it’s lined with millions of nerve cells that talk directly to your brain.
– Around 70% of your immune system lives in and around your gut.
– Most of your body’s serotonin, the “happy” messenger, is made in your gut.
– And here’s the thing… you are not just what you eat, you are what you ABSORB.

That’s where enzymes come in.

🔬 So what are digestive enzymes?

Enzymes are tiny proteins that act like scissors, snipping your food into pieces small enough for your body to absorb. Your body makes its own in your mouth, stomach, pancreas and small intestine.

As we get a little older, or when we’re stressed, eating on the run or eating lots of cooked and processed food, we tend not to have as many efficiently working enzymes as we did. And when food isn’t broken down properly, that’s when the bloating, gas and heaviness can kick in.

⭐️ How TerraZyme helps

TerraZyme contains a blend of active whole-food enzymes that each have a job:

– Protease helps break down proteins
– Amylase helps break down carbohydrates and starches
– Lipase helps break down fats
– Lactase helps break down the natural sugars in dairy
– Cellulase helps break down plant fibre

By helping your body break food down more efficiently, TerraZyme supports:

– Better absorption of the nutrients from your food
– More energy, because more of those nutrients are actually getting to where they’re needed
– Less of that uncomfortable bloating and gas after meals
– Overall healthy digestive function

💚 How we take it

1. Take TerraZyme with your meals, following the directions on the label.
2. We take ours with our biggest meals of the day, and especially when we’re eating out or travelling.
3. Pair it with plenty of water, chewing your food slowly and lots of fresh, colourful plants.
4. For the full gut-love routine, we also take dōTERRA’s PB Assist+ probiotic and keep DigestZen close by.

⚠️ If you’re pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication or have a medical condition, have a chat with your health practitioner before starting any new supplement.

Happy tummy, happy life! 😁
