NOURISH YOUR GUT 

Pineapples feature a collection of digestive enzymes known as bromelain, assisting in the breakdown of proteins into amino acids. 

Papayas house the digestive enzyme papain, breaking down proteins into amino acids; consume them ripe and raw to preserve their digestive enzymes, as heat can diminish their effectiveness.

Mangoes feature the digestive enzyme amylase, aiding in the breakdown of starch (a complex carbohydrate) into sugars such as glucose and maltose.

Raw honey, rich in digestive enzymes like diastase, amylase, invertase, and protease, supports digestion, while processed honey, exposed to high heat, may lack these beneficial enzymes.

Bananas, as they ripen, become sweeter due to increased activity of amylases and glucosidases, enzymes that break down complex starches into easily absorbed sugars.

Avocados, rich in the digestive enzyme lipase, facilitate the breakdown of fat molecules into smaller fatty acids and glycerol, potentially aiding digestion after a high-fat meal.

Kefir, a fermented milk beverage, harbours various digestive enzymes, such as lipases, proteases, and lactases, contributing to the breakdown of fat, protein, and lactose molecules.

Kiwifruit is enriched with actinidain, a digestive enzyme that facilitates protein digestion, and incorporating kiwifruit into your diet may alleviate digestive issues such as bloating and constipation.

Ginger, with its digestive enzyme zingibain, acts as a protease, promoting efficient digestion by accelerating food transit through the digestive tract and stimulating the body's natural production of digestive enzymes.
