Pancreatic Enzymes Timing Guidance

Kelley Pancreatic Enzymes and Gerson Enzymes

30 minutes before a meal will assist in the digestion of food, with little of the enzymes material going into the blood supply to go after any undigested material, abnormal cells or bruises.

Pancreatic Enzymes are best taken 30 minutes before a meal so the enzymes mostly passing through the stomach. If you eat too soon after taking the enzymes your stomach will issue acid to digest the food and that stomach acid will also attempt to digest the pancreatic enzymes and since the enzymes are alkaline some portion of the acid and alkaline will cancel each other out.

1 1/2 to 2 hours before or after meal - When you take the enzymes away form meals the majority of the enzyme will be delivered into your blood stream to digest undigested material, abnormal cells (cancer) or bruises.
