"La plupart des difficultés digestives sont dues à un déficit enzymatique car le pancréas joue moins bien son rôle face à une alimentation trop sucrée ou ultra transformée. Cela contribue à créer un terrain favorable aux intolérances. D’où l’intérêt de lui apporter des enzymes de l’extérieur pour l’aider à en produire de lui-même par la suite."
