Dr. Q's Total Digest is a broad-spectrum digestive enzyme supplement that supports digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, fiber, and lactose. It contains over 15 enzymes, including protease, amylase, lipase, lactase, and plant-digesting enzymes. These enzymes work together and over a wide pH range to break down nutrients into absorbable forms and support pancreatic and intestinal function for optimal digestion and nutrient absorption.
Dietary fiber or roughage is the indigestible portion of food derived from plants. It has two main components: Soluble fiber, which dissolves in water, is readily fermented in the colon into gases and physiologically active byproducts, and can be prebiotic and viscous.
Fiber has long been known to help increase satiety by helping to send signals from the gut to the brain to say 'i'm full'. Fiber also helps to slow down digestion helping to balance blood sugar, purified fiber supplements have been clinically proven to work as well.
Evidence shows that honey improves glycemic control in diabetes mellitus. Besides its hypoglycemic effect, studies indicate that honey ameliorates lipid abnormalities
in rats and humans with diabetes. This review also validates the beneficial effects of oligosaccharides on various abnormalities commonly associated with these disorders. Based on the evidence that honey contains oligosaccharides, we hypothesize that oligosaccharides present in honey might contribute to the antidiabetic and other health-related beneficial effects of honey.

Oxidative stress is currently suggested to play a role in the pathogenesis of Diabetes mellitus. The role of dietary management in diabetes mellitus is to provide a proper balance of total nutrients while meeting the special dietary needs of the patient. The present study was designated to evaluate the effect of special antidiabetic diet treatment upon oxidative stress parameters in the initial stages of the development of diabetes. Male Wistar strain rats were used as an experimental model, divided into five groups. A significant decrease in superoxide dismutase and total glutathione activities were observed in the liver of diabetic rats when compared with control animals. The plasma level of aminotransferases, creatine kinase, lactate dehydrogenase and urea were significantly increased after induction of diabetes, in all groups under treatment. In contrast, rats fed special diet food, have shown slight different, but not significant changes. The findings of the present study suggest that special diet formula useful for prevention of progressive hyperglycaemia in age induced diabetes in dogs, could not restore the imbalance of cellular defence mechanism provoked by streptozotocin.

1. Dr.Q’s Total Digest
Clinical Applications
•• Supports Healthy Digestion of Macronutrients and Enhances
Nutrient Absorption*
•• Supports Breakdown of Polysaccharides in Beans and Cruciferous
Vegetables*
•• Helps Support Pancreatic and Brush Border Enzyme Function*
•• Supports Breakdown of Lactose*
Dr.Q’s Total Digest is a cost-effective, non-prescription, broad-spectrum, digestive enzyme formula suitable
for vegans and designed to support the digestion of fat, protein, carbohydrate, fiber, and lactose. This
comprehensive formula contains lipase, proteases, alpha-galactosidase, hemicellulase, papain, lactase,
and other key digestive enzymes. Dr.Q’s Total Digest works in a wide pH range—unlike porcine pancreatin,
which works in a narrow pH range.*
All Dr. Q Vitamins Formulas Meet or Exceed cGMP Quality Standards
Discussion
Pancreatic and Intestinal Enzymes Pancreatic production of proteases, amylases, and lipases is complemented by
intestinal production of lactase, maltase, sucrase, enterokinase, and various peptidases, highlighting the importance of the
pancreas and the intestines in the digestive process. The enzyme lactase is required to break down lactose into glucose
and galactose before the intact lactose can draw excess water into the bowel, and before colonic bacteria can break it
down into volatile gases and acids. Though lactose (a disaccharide found only in mammals’ milk) is readily digested by
most infants, normal production decreases as a child is weaned onto whole foods and may eventually cease in adulthood.
Exogenous administration of lactase can support lactose digestion effectively and allow for continued consumption of milkbased products.[3,4] Maintaining a healthy gastrointestinal flora helps support brush border function and digestive capacity
as well.*[5]
Digestion of Plant-Based Compounds Dr.Q’s Total Digest contains several principle digestive enzymes as well as a
complement of enzymes designed to break down plant compounds and fibers that humans would otherwise be unable to
digest. Raffinose and melibiose, carbohydrates commonly found in legumes, can be broken down by the intestinal enzyme
alpha-galactosidase. In the absence of this enzyme, these carbohydrates pass into the large intestine, where microbes can
ferment them and produce volatile gases. Exogenous administration of alpha-galactosidase, present in Dr.Q’s Total Digest,
supports the digestion of these plant-based compounds and has been used safely and effectively.[6,7] Beta-glucanase,
hemicellulase, pectinase, xylanase, and dipeptidyl peptidase (DPPIV) are also present and improve the digestibility of
plant-based foods by breaking down plant cell walls, fibers, and proteins. Phytase is present to facilitate the breakdown of
indigestible phytates from grains and seeds, and release phosphorus, calcium, inositol, and other nutrients for absorption.
Bromelain and papain offer additional support for protein digestion. The enzyme invertase catalyzes sugar to glucose and
fructose.*
Dr.Q’s Total Digest incorporates amylase, lipase, proteases, hemicellulase, bromelain, papain, lactase, DPPIV, and other
key digestive enzymes to provide a comprehensive formulation that functions in a wide pH range to support and facilitate
healthy digestion. It has been formulated to allow flexible dosing that can be adjusted for individual needs.*

Dr.Q’s Total Digest
Digestion Food must be broken down into its component parts in order to be absorbed into the bloodstream. Though
salivary secretions, chewing, gastric acid, and pepsin begin the process of digestion, the majority of digestion takes place
farther down the gastrointestinal tract in the small intestine. Once food leaves the stomach and enters the small intestine,
digestive enzymes begin the monumental task of turning it into the building blocks and fuel that the body needs for structural
support and metabolic processes. Digestive enzymes are produced primarily in the pancreas and brush border of the small
intestine, and the health and function of these organs is vital to effective digestion and absorption. Proteolytic enzymes,
amylases, and lipases are responsible for the digestion of proteins, carbohydrates, and fats. The complete digestion of
these macronutrients produces small peptides, amino acids, monosaccharides and disaccharides, and free fatty acids that
can easily pass through the intestinal microvilli and enter the bloodstream. Healthy digestion assures that incompletely
digested molecules and proteins don’t enter the bloodstream where they may be recognized as “foreign” by a vigilant
immune system.*[1,2]
