苯酚酶消化高苯酚，它不含消化蛋白质的酶，所以对患有溃疡的人比较能够容忍。

帮助溶解水果、蔬菜、谷物和其他食物中的酚类物质。不含常见过敏原。不含酪蛋白和麸质。胶囊是基于植物的。超测试®。

Phenol Assist™ 是一种特殊酶，旨在帮助消化水果、蔬菜和谷物中植物细胞的部分细胞壁结构，从而打开细胞以进行苯酚消化过程。

酚类化合物存在于水果、蔬菜、一些谷物和坚果、调味剂和香料中。酚类和水杨酸盐是一种酚类化合物，在体内使用大量硫酸盐才能被分解。这可能会干扰身体的硫酸化机制（硫酸离子从一个身体组织移动到另一个身体组织），这是身体正常工作的必要过程。 Phenol Assist 还通过分解酚类化合物来支持硫酸化。

Description



Phenol Assist™ is an enzyme designed to help digest part of the cell wall structure of plant cells in fruits, vegetables and grains.  Doing so opens the cell and allows the process of phenol digestion to occur.

When an apple or a pear is sliced open and is left out for a while, the tissue of the fruit turns brown.  That browning process is the result of the natural enzyme present in fruits, "phenolase," oxidizing the fruit tissue.  This process cannot occur until the cell wall is broken and oxygen gets into the cells.  Phenol Assist™ gets this process going and therefore supports sulfation by reducing the phenolic load on the body's sulfation capacity.

Phenols are compounds with a specific chemical structure of an aromatic ring plus a hydroxyl group.  They are found in fruits, vegetables, some grains and nuts, flavorings and spices.  A salicylate is a type of phenolic compound.  Phenols and polyphenols have antioxidant qualities and protective functions, which make some of them beneficial and desirable for most individuals.

An important chemical process that occurs in body tissues is called sulfation.  Sulfation is the movement of sulfate (sulfur plus oxygen) ions from one body tissue to another.  Sulfating molecules change the molecules’ character and behavior and how they act in the body.  Connective tissue is sulfated for structural reasons and neuron tissue is sulfated to provide a protective sheath.  Sulfation also causes molecules to vary in activity, solubility, and mobility.  For the body to work properly, these sulfation processes must occur.
 

What is the relationship between phenolic compounds and sulfation?  Phenols and salicylates use up a lot of sulfate in the body in order to be broken down.  In other words, the phenols and salicylates compete for the body's sulfate stores.  In certain individuals, breaking down phenolic compounds can provide a benefit by supporting the sulfation mechanism.

Phenol Assist™ contains a variety of enzymes to accomplish cell wall digestion, and other enzymes to assist in the total digestion of fruits, vegetables, grains, and spices.  Below is a brief description of the enzymes present:

 

     •  Xylanase makes grains, fruits and vegetables that utilize xylose in their structure more digestible by breaking
        some of the xylan bonds.

     •  CeraCalase™ is a proprietary blend of the National Enzyme Company that aids the breakdown of plant and

        fruit structures.

     •  Cellulase helps digest the cellulose fibers surrounding plant cells.
     •  Beta-Glucanase is an enzyme that breaks down glucan structures in fruits and grains.

     •  Phytase breaks organic-phosphate bonds, which helps destroy phytins and phytic acid, thereby ensuring that

        important minerals are not complexed and transported unused out of the body.

     •  Alpha Amylase is an enzyme that helps digest starches and complex sugars present in plants.
     •  Glucoamylase aids digestion of polysaccharides and polymeric chains of glucose.

     •  Alpha-Galactosidase hydrolyzes bonds that hold galactose, thereby freeing the glactose
        for its enzyme stimulating function involving DPP-IV.       

Suggested Use:  One capsule with meals consisting of phenol containing foods.  Start with ¼ to ½ capsule and gradually increase this dose to the amount that provides optimal digestion of foods.

The dose can be adjusted according to the specific needs of the individual.  With small meals or snacks, smaller doses may be sufficient to provide adequate digestion of these foods.  Avoid mixing with food or beverages that will be heated above 130° F as the activity of the enzymes will be adversely affected.

Enzymes should be taken at the beginning or early on in the meal to ensure appropriate digestion.  The capsules may be swallowed whole or opened and mixed with food or beverages.

We recommend that Phenol Assist™ be used with Kirkman's Phenol Assist™ Companion (0262-090) to help sulfation.
