Different diseases of digestive system treated by different enzymes
Exocrine Pancreatic
Insufficiency
There is a trouble with pancreas coproduce
enough digestive enzymes ,which help to
digest the food in intestine.
The main treatment for it is pancreatic enzyme
replacement therapy which means take the capsules with
pancreatic enzyme in order to prevent enzymes from high
temperature (M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
Lactose Intolerance
Somebody who cannot digest lactose,they will feel diarrhea
and flatulence(M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
Supplemental digestive enzyme products
containing effective lactase enzyme can
remedy the conditions associated with lactose
intolerance(M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
Casein and Gluten Intolerance
Some people cannot digest the casein and gluten which
are the proteins from milk and wheat.
Supplemental digestive enzymes could supply
help for preventing or reducing the risks of
digestive (M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
Food Allergies
The intestine's complicated immune system,with
digestive enzymes, helps suppress any
allergen-inducing capability contained in the food
proteins we consume (M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
High supplemental digestive enzymes in
proteases are helpful in controlling food
allergies(M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
Microbial Control
Digestive system may get some germs
by consuming food and drinks (M.
Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
Using enzymes may prevent attachment of the
germs and end infectivity by some pathogenic
intestinal bacteria(M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
Celiac Disease
It makes a injury to the intestinal cells so
that the functions of the brush border
enzymes and the ability of the cells to
perform their absorptive function will be
damaged(M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).
It is helpful to use supplemental digestive
enzymes,which contain highly active proteases
and peptidases(M. Mamadou, PhD.2013,09).

Amylase
It catalyses the hydrolysis of starch into sugars
(Barkalow, David G & Whistler, Roy L, n.d.)
Problem and Solution
Enzyme is one of the food macromolecules so
that its effect can be easily influenced by some
abiotic factors such as temperature, pH, etc.
Therefore, the method named PEG is able to
improve the thermostability, pH stability and
other properties of enzymes. In addition, some
researchers solved above problem by using
lipid to wrap the enzyme medicine in order to
protect the enzyme activity (Weiwei Li,2006).
Hypochlorhydria
It’s not only the elderly who suffer from hypochlorhydria or have too
little stomach acid.
Aside from a decrease in stomach acid that fails to trigger
reactions, the acid itself cannot break down foods to release
minerals, vitamins and nutrients. Many micronutrients are
“cleaved” or released from food while it’s in the stomach — if
this action fails, then there’s an automatic nutritional or
enzymatic insufficiency (Sarah Myhill, 16 January 2015.)
Liver Disease
The liver disease always suspected as having a
concurrent enzyme insufficiency.
Typically first hitting adults between ages 20–50 with
breathing and other respiratory complaints, as
roughly 15 percent of adults develop liver disease.
Dyspepsia
A condition of impaired digestion
may lack of digestive enzymes.
lipase
It can assist lipid to be digested, transported
and processed(Lipase, 2016, July 13).
Pancreatin
It is a mixture of a few digestive enzymes produced by the exocrine
cells of the pancreas,and is composed of amylase, lipase and
protease (Enzyme-therapy-for-cancer-and-digestive-diseases, n.d.)
Cellulase
It can break down the cellulose molecule into
monosaccharides (Worthington Enzyme, n.d.).
