There are many complications involved in digesting food and absorbing nutrients. Alpha ENF is an elemental nutrient formula that contains only pure nutrients. Alpha ENF requires little or no digestion. The nutrients are ready to be absorbed into the bloodstream. Often, especially with the first few servings, you can feel the effects of nutrients being rapidly absorbed.
Nutrients also act on the surfaces of the throat and later stomach and small intestine.
You may notice a drying effect on your throat. Food materials are slowly digested with prolonged, sustained release of nutrients - some nutrients are lost since food may not be fully digested and nutrients may not be completely absorbed. Because the nutrients in Alpha ENF are quickly absorbed and utilized, it is advisable to have a serving of Alpha ENF every 2-3 hours. For each cup of Alpha ENF, drink another cup of water between servings. Occasionally the nutrients stimulate bowel contractions - this is felt as mild crampy abdominal pains.
