About Enteromend

Enteromend is an Deipeptidyl Peptidase DPP-IV Enzyme Formula addressing the symptoms of food intolerance including cramping, bloating, belching, intestinal gas, nausea, and diarrhea. Enteromend is recommended for people with wheat and gluten intolerance - you may want to be tested for Celiac disease. 

Enteromend may be used for the following symptoms:

• Poor digestion
• Gluten intolerance
• Food intolerance
• Diarrhea
• Intestinal inflammation
• Cramping
• Bloating
• Intestinal gas
• Nausea
• Flatulence

How it works

Enteromend by Health Concerns Herbs specifically helps people with wheat and gluten intolerance by increasing the activity of dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP-IV). The lack of this enzyme activity in the small intestine prevents the digestion of gluten fragments. It is thought that these peptide fragments, if left undigested, elicit immune responses that can inflame the lining of the small intestine. Enteromend includes a full complement of enzymes to digest dairy products, protein, carbohydrates, and fats.

It can be used between meals to help heal the intestines as well as to reduce reactions to food when taken with meals.

Gluten intolerance is a broad term that includes all kinds of sensitivity to gluten. The general symptoms of gluten intolerance include abdominal pain, gas, and diarrhea. One of the enzyme activities required to break down these peptides has been identified as dipeptidyl peptidase IV (DPP IV). The lack of this enzyme activity in the small intestine due to the above conditions prevents the digestion of these peptide fragments. These peptide fragments, if left undigested, are thought to elicit immune responses that can inflame the lining of the small intestine.

The proteases in Enteromend  are designed to provide standardized DPP IV activity, and are stable in the acidic environment of the stomach. Enteromend also contains enzymes that have DPP IV activity and special enzymes to assist in the breakdown of carbohydrates, protein and fats. It contains acid maltase to assist in starch digestion, alpha galactosidase and invertase to break down sugars resulting from the fermentation of grains, legumes, and cruciferous vegetables, lactase to digest milk proteins, and special proteases to reduce inflammation and breakdown proteins.
