amylase and starch blocker questions Re: Re: Using enzymes to bala

[Guest guest]

Sol, yes, if the amylase beaks down the starch right away like its supposed to,

your upper intestine gets ample opportunity to absorb the sugars before the much

higher concentration of organisms further downstream get a chance at it. Since

most bowel infection issues are much further downstream, around and past the

ileo-caecal valve, this would be very good

Starch blockers that block absorption and don't also render the starch

unavailable to bacterial and fungal activity in the lower bowel will allow the

starch to feed pathogens there as well as probiotics.
