I've started to take digestives enzymes to help me with eating more often to fight hypoglycemia. I have functional dyspepsia so eating protein/fat too often can hurt my stomach a lot, so I figured those enzymes would help.
Here is the formula:
digest plus, by genestra
each tablet contains betaine hydrochloride.......162.5 mg
glutamic acid.......162.5 mg
pancreatin 6x conc........65 mg
provides the equivalent of 390 mg
papain (papaya).......65 mg
pepsin.......25 mg
protease activity.......390000 usp
amylase activity.......6500 usp
lipase activity.......520 us
i wonder if those enzymes are good for hypoglycemic person, as they may break complex carbs and proteins and fats molecules faster, hence maybe elevate blood sugar level faster? In other words: if I follow a strict hypoglycemic diet, would those enzymes actually damage or even ruin all the efforts I make by digesting too fast food that meant to be slowly digested?
