Gluten Guardian Benefits

1. Supports Healthy Digestion of Gluten*

   Gluten is a family of proteins found in wheat This protein is difficult to digest because it is high in the amino acids proline and glutamine, which our body's natural digestive enzymes don’t recognize. As a result, they’re likely to remain undigested which may lead to occasional gut discomfort.

   Gluten in particular can open the gut barrier through the zonulin pathway, exposing the content inside the gut to your immune system. In people predisposed for autoimmunity or allergies, the leaky gut from gluten may trigger or worsen the effects. Incomplete digested gluten fragments can also get absorbed into the bloodstream and create opioid-like effects.

   If you are healthy and experience minor sensitivity to gluten, it is important to take a gluten-digesting enzyme to ensure that they are 100% digested if you do eat them.

   If you have sensitivity after eating gluten, you may need to adopt a gluten-free diet. However, a digestive enzyme supplement that targets gluten may help support minor exposures.

2. Enjoy Occasional High-Carb Refeed Meals and Treats Without the Bloat Support

   If you are on a restrictive diet or reaching a plateau with your weight loss program, a refeed meal allows you to enjoy your favorite foods and jumpstart your metabolism. Even if you’re not dieting, you can enjoy your favorite treats with ease.

   The common problem is that eating a lot of carbs, sugar, and gluten may cause digestive upsets. Therefore, it is important to supplement with digestive enzyme supplements targeting gluten and carbohydrates. Gluten Guardian is designed to support your digestion and help maintain digestive upset from these refeed meals or treats.*

3. Take Advantage of Your Cheat Meal for Muscle Building

   Your cheat or refeed meals are a way to spike your hormones to get glucose and amino acids into your muscle cells and replenish your glycogen stores. If you do the refeed right, you will experience a better workout during the first few days after your refeed.

   Also, some people use holiday meals and social events as refeeds to maximize muscle gain, fuel their workouts, and minimize fat gain. In order to maximize muscle building, your protein digestion and absorption have to be optimal.

   Gluten Guardian can help support protein digestion, maintain undigested gluten levels, and help promote a balanced immune response to food.*

4. Post-Meal Fatigue and Brain Fog Support*

   Being tired and brain-fogged after meals are signs that your gut is working hard to digest your meals. A meal should simply take away your hunger, not put you to sleep. Gluten Guardian’s digestive enzymes support the breakdown of the difficult-to-digest gluten, they also provide overall support for your digestive system*. As a result, you may feel both satiated and energized after your meals.

5. Helps With Gluten and Dairy Exposures

   Gluten Guardian can better support gluten peptide breakdown than either enzyme alone.*.

   Gluten Guardian is not intended to fix any conditions and individual responses may vary widely. Remember to work with your healthcare professional to decide what’s best for you.

How Does Gluten Guardian Work?

Gluten Guardian supports digestive function, especially the digestion of high-carb meals.* It contains full-spectrum protein digestive enzymes specifically designed to target gluten, and carbohydrates.

The most important enzyme in Gluten Guardian is Peptidase DPP-IV, a potent gluten-digesting enzyme. Therefore, Gluten Guardian helps support the breakdown of gluten into amino acids that your body can use.* By better digesting them, the enzyme helps mitigating immune responses to incompletely digested gluten.

When To Take Gluten Digestive Enzymes?

Take Gluten Guardian with meals that contain gluten, or any high-carbohydrate meals.

Gluten Guardian can also be taken on an empty stomach to harness the benefits of systemic protein-digesting enzymes.
