Do Digestive Enzymes 
 Help in Muscle Building?

If you train with weights on a regular basis then you will be very
aware of the difference between anabolic and catabolic. You're 
building your strength and increasing the size of a muscle when you
are anabolic, conversely when you over-train or you're sick you'll 
lose strength and muscle size you'll be catabolic.

Anabolic means protein synthesis is happening i.e. muscle growth. It
means the nitrogen taken from amino acids is then rearranged linearly
to form structured proteins. The more efficient this structural 
rearrangement the faster you will be able to build muscle.

Digestive enzymes are vital for this process to happen. These are the
important proteins that act as a catalyst for countless chemical 
reactions that happen in your body all day. Including those that are 
directly associated with energy production, tissue repair, and food 
digestion.

Your digestive enzymes break the food down when it hits the stomach 
into nutrients that allow them to get absorbed into your bloodstream.
Without sufficient digestive enzymes to process the expensive protein
that you're eating you won't get the advantages of all the protein 
you think you're eating.

If you are training hard and eat 1.2 grams of protein for each pound 
of your bodyweight, to prevent catabolism from happening, then you 
should know that if you don't have enough digestive enzymes readily 
available to digest this well planned 1.2 gram/lbs body-weight you 
fooling yourself.

It's a protein trap that many bodybuilders fall into thinking that if
1.2 grams is good then 1.5 grams must better. They invest in 
expensive protein powders and think they are getting all the protein 
they need to repair from their brutal workouts. The problem is when 
you run out of digestive enzymes needed to process all this protein 
coming down, there just aren't enough of them available.

A study done on the effectiveness of digestive enzymes showed that 
the volunteers all experienced a 100% increase in their protein 
synthesis rate, a 250% increase in BCAA availability and an overall 
increased rate of nitrogen retention to be 33%. In other words faster
muscle repair.

It should be noted that traditional hard-gainers usually genetically 
produce an abundance of the catabolic stress hormone called Cortisol. 
It is a catabolic hormone because it will inhibit or drastically 
reduce protein synthesis. It is strongly advised that these people 
take digestive enzyme supplements.
