Digestive Enzymes and Lipase
An exciting avenue of research with regard to weight management has to do with digestive enzymes and one enzyme in particular, called Lipase. Research has shown that people who are obese are low in the enzyme lipase. So, can supplementation with the digestive enzyme lipase help with weight management?
Enzyme specialist believe the answer to that question is yes, but as any other responsible company will tell you, a supplement alone will not help you reach and maintain your ideal weight. Calorie consumption and exercise levels must both be considered and modified where needed, as well, for longterm weight loss results.
LypoZyme is a supplement that was formulated to assist the person who has concerns ranging from health problems, to high blood pressure, to plaque build up in the arteries, to obesity, to indigestion. LypoZyme aids in the proper digestion of fats, carbohydrates and proteins and contains the highest amount of Lipase (the enzyme responsible for proper digestion of fats and balancing of fatty acids) of any product.
The high amount of lipase in LypoZyme provides the body with a feeling of saiety which further controls appetite, lowers cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and serves in the balancing of fatty acids in the system.
What is in LypoZyme?
You may have guessed that the first ingredient, and the most significant in terms of weight management goals, is Lipase but what exactly is lipase? Lipase is an enzyme that works specifically to digest lipids (fat). Incomplete digestion of fat allows fat to coat food particles and therefore interferes with the hydrolysis of other food components such as protein and carbohydrates. Normal digestion of dietary fat is accomplished by lipases with the assistance of bile, which is produced by the liver and normally supplied by way of the gallbladder.
The function of bile is to bring ingested fats into emulsion to facilitate the work of the lipases. Incomplete digestion of fats may result in diarrhea and/or, more seriously, essential fatty acid deficiency. Adequate absorption of essential fatty acids is necessary to maintain membrane structure in cells throughout the body and to maintain healthy skin. Essential fatty acid deficiency also reduces blood clotting time. Additional enzymes (protease blend, amy lase, cellulase) are included to enhance the performance of the other ingredients.
Amylase
The second enzyme included in the LypoZyme formula is Amylase which is included because Supplementation with amylase allows digestion of carbohydrates during their transit through the gastrointestinal tract. These enzymes can tolerate the low pH of the gastric juice. The amylase hydrolyzes the starchy foods and liberates maltoses.
And finally, we round out the synergistic LypoZyme formula with a special Protease Blend which consists of alkaline, neutral and acid proteases plus peptidase. Our protease blend includes proteases that are active in a wide range of pH's, ensuring that protein digestion will begin in the stomach. It also includes enzymes with a wide range of specificities (i.e. both endo- and exo- peptidase) in order to ensure the highest degree of protein degradation.

Personal Insight on Using Enzymes for Weight Loss
We often suggest an enzyme regimen for exploration that includes LypoZyme and the excellent combination of herbs and enzymes in the BalanceZyme Plus product.
One of the questions that is sometimes asked from people who have taken enzymes before is the weight gain they initially experienced, and why that happens. Typically, the reason we may gain with enzymes initially is because our body is starved for nutrition. Absolutely starved. So once it starts getting the enzymes it needs to gain maximum benefit from what we eat, there can be a temporary weight gain until our metabolism settles and our body realizes that it is not going to starve.
Enzymes are not a quick fix. They provide support for your body to regain natural balance and, with that, normal weight. Expect to be on enzyme supplementation at least three months before making a determination and also, if you need to cleanse and leave out that important factor, neither the enzymes or any other supplement you might try will result in permanent, healthy weight loss.

How to Determine Your Body Fat Levels
For most people, determining the circumference of your waist and your body mass index (BMI) are reliable ways to estimate your body fat and the health risks associated with being overweight, overfat or obese.
BMI is reliable for most people between 19 and 70 years of age except women who are pregnant or breast feeding, competitive athletes, body builders, and chronically ill patients. Generally, the higher your BMI, the higher your health risk, and the risk increases even further if your waist size is greater than 40 inches for men or 35 inches for women. There are other ways, besides BMI, to determine your body fat composition, and your doctor can tell you about them, but the method recommended here will help you decide if you are at risk.
Use the chart to determine your BMI. Then, measure your waist size. Now, with your BMI and waist size determined, use the table below to determine your health risk relative to normal weight. You can visit The Partnership for Healthy Weight Management for the BMI chart, so that you have a more clear understanding of how these figures are determined.
