TriEnza

TriEnza® provides digestive support for a broad range of foods.

The unique blend of enzymes in TriEnza break down foods to help prevent occasional digestive discomfort from food intolerances.

The enzymes in TriEnza offer support for:

• Food proteins
• Wheat
• Dairy
• Carbohydrates
• Sugars
• Lactose
• Polyphenolic vegetables and fruits
• Fats
• Breaks down xylan-containing fiber but preserves cellulose and glucan fibers†

TriEnza was specially formulated for your dietary needs by biochemist Devin Houston, Ph.D.

Who should use TriEnza?
If you need support for digestion of multiple types of foods, try TriEnza.†

Contraindications for Enzyme Supplementation
These enzymes should be used with care in cases of active stomach or duodenal ulcers, severe bowel inflammation (characterized by blood in stools), hemophilia and other bleeding disorders, or within a week of scheduled surgery. This product may not be appropriate for those with known allergies to Aspergillus enzyme proteins, though non-specific mold allergies do not necessarily preclude use of fungal enzymes. Consult your medical doctor for further advice, and err on the side of caution. Those with known anaphylactic allergic reactions to fungal proteins should NOT ingest fungal-derived enzymes.

As of August 31, 2023 we've made a few updates to the TriEnza 180, TriEnza 90, and TriEnza Chewable formulas to bring you even better support for digesting a range of foods. The same changes will be made to the 60 count capsules and powder versions within the coming weeks.

The changes we made to TriEnza 180:

Removed Cellulase and Glucanase enzymes.

• Recent research in animals indicates that cellulose fiber plays an important role in the development and maturation of the gut microbiome. Dietary cellulose induces cellular anti-inflammatory mechanisms from the gut bacteria and increased probiotic diversity. Breakdown of cellulose by supplemental cellulase may possibly remove the benefits to the gut bacteria and also produces higher glucose levels in the small intestine. With these new benefits of cellulose revealed, we feel it best to remove cellulase from ALL of our enzyme products.
• Glucans have much research backing their benefits in heart health. We find no reason to add an enzyme that breaks down glucans, so glucanase will be removed from our products as well.
• One fiber that should be broken down early in digestion is xylan which is found as a supporting structure in plant cell walls. Xylanase breaks down xylans into xylose sugar which is not absorbed in the human gut and so does not have a glycemic contribution. Xylans are the structures that tie cellulose fibers together, when xylan is broken down, the cellulose fibers are released and used normally by the gut bacteria. Houston Enzymes is one of the few companies to use xylanase in high amounts, because it also contains enzyme side activities helpful in release of absorbable polyphenols. No other enzyme company comes close to the level of xylanase used in Houston Enzyme products!

Increased amounts of lactase, invertase, and lipase.

• With more room available in the capsule, we slightly increased the activities of lipase, lactase, and invertase to better help with sugar and fat digestion and lactose intolerance.

Added Alpha-Galactosidase.

• We felt TriEnza needed more help with reducing problems produced by beans, broccoli, cauliflower and other veggies, so alpha-galactosidase was added back into the formula.

180 Capsules
Two (2) capsules per meal or as needed. Less may be adequate for smaller meals. Most find using 2 to 4 capsules per meal adequate, and most likely no further benefits will occur with higher dosing, though more may be given for the infrequent and large food challenges. Each person is different so we encourage some experimentation to find the dose that best helps each person.

90 Capsules
Two (2) capsules per meal or as needed. Less may be adequate for smaller meals. Most find using 2 to 4 capsules per meal adequate, and most likely no further benefits will occur with higher dosing, though more may be given for the infrequent and large food challenges. Each person is different so we encourage some experimentation to find the dose that best helps each person.

60 Capsules
Two (2) capsules per meal or as needed. Less may be adequate for smaller meals. Most find using 2 to 4 capsules per meal adequate, and most likely no further benefits will occur with higher dosing, though more may be given for the infrequent and large food challenges. Each person is different so we encourage some experimentation to find the dose that best helps each person.Two

Chewable Tablets
Each TriEnza Chewable tablet equals 1/2 capsule, so 4 tablets would be equivalent to the 2 capsule dosing. We encourage experimenting with the dose to find the optimal dosing for your situation.

The production process used to manufacture the enzymes found in this product utilizes fermentation materials that are derived from or contain the allergens listed below. While these fermentation materials should be either consumed during fermentation or removed from the enzyme during additional enzyme isolation steps, minute traces of these allergens may be left in the final enzyme product. While these traces are expected to be below the limits of detection for standard ELISA based allergen testing methods‡, we cannot guarantee the complete absence of these allergens:
Gluten, soy.

‡NOTE: Enzymes and probiotics can interfere with common ELISA based allergen test kits, producing either false positives or false negatives in these tests. When performing allergen testing on enzyme containing products, special sample preparation techniques must be utilized to avoid this interference.

Can I receive a sample?
Yes. To request a free sample within the US, contact us by emailing info@houston-enzymes.com, or calling 866-757-8627.

If the capsule is opened and contents put on food or in drink, will the proteases hurt the mouth or throat?
The proteases should not be harmful if taken without the capsule. Some irritation may occur if the enzyme remains on the cheeks or gums due to a debriding action on the layer of dead skin cells. We recommend drinking or eating after taking the enzymes to clear the mouth of the enzymes, or brushing teeth, gargling, etc.†

Will TriEnza help those with celiac disease?
We make no claims for enzymes helping any disease condition. TriEnza will not allow those with celiac disease to consume gluten. Celiac disease is very serious and those with the disease should stay on the doctor-advised gluten-free diet. Taking the enzymes while maintaining a gluten-free diet should do no harm.

Do I need to be on the GFCF diet for TriEnza to work?
No, TriEnza will work regardless whether you are on the GFCF (gluten-free, casein-free) diet. Many use it as an alternative to the GFCF diet with very good results.†
