Enzymes for
life support!
Thousands of different enzymes
are required for the thousands of different molecules in living
cells to engage in reactions. Enzyme activity is truly holistic,
they act together as co-enzymes or as co-factors with vitamins,
minerals and trace minerals to optimize body efficiency. Enzymes
work with various systems of the body (digestive, circulatory,
nervous, immune, endocrine, and reproductive) to help them
function.
| There
are three major classes of enzymes: |
 |
|
| Metabolic
Enzymes are active in blood, tissues and organs.
They help to build phosphorus in our bones and attach
iron to red blood cells. They also assist in
reproduction and the repair of damage and decay. |
Digestive
Enzymes (protease, amylase, lipase) are produced
by the body to ensure optimum digestion and assimilate
of nutrients. As we age, the production of these
natural enzymes begin to decline. |
Food
Enzymes are naturally present in all raw foods.
They present an external source of digestive enzymes.
Food enzymes are easily destroyed by cooking and
processing methods. |
|
Digestive enzymes won't catalyse just
any old reaction - each particular enzyme can only bind to one
specific food substrate or molecule. Proteases convert protein into
amino acids; amylases break down carbohydrate to simple sugars and
lipases split fat into fatty acids.
| A
Shortage of Enzymes Can Spell Trouble |
|
Raw foods
Our body was never intended to produce all the enzymes needed for
proper digestion. Nature packed raw foods with another class of
enzymes - food enzymes, which happen to be many of the same enzymes
necessary for breaking down the foods that contain them. Eating a diet
of raw foods would supply us with many of the digestive enzymes needed
but such a diet would be almost impossible in our modern society.
Enzymes are fragile and very heat-sensitive. Cooking (boiling,
steaming, baking, frying, microwaving) even at low temperatures can
diminish or destroy enzyme activity.
Aging
There is a limited number of enzymes that humans can produce in a
lifetime. The older you get, the more your body relies on enzymes from
food. If our diets are deficient, our bodies are forced to take
metabolic enzymes from other parts of the body. These are the very
enzymes that are needed for proper functioning of body organs and
systems, so the more we deplete our body's natural enzyme reserves,
the more we jeopardize our health.
Other Factors
Environmental toxins can affect the functioning, quality and activity
of enzymes. Stress, illness, injury, caffeine, alcohol are just some
of the factors that can overtax the body's enzyme supply. Any increase
in metabolism (from digestion, detoxification, fever and exercise) is
accompanied by an increase in enzyme activity. It is easy to have a
shortfall!
| So how
do we get enough enzymes? |
|
Take enzyme supplements - they provide the catalyst that will
allow our bodies to function at its peak.

Problems
associated with enzyme shortage |
| Amylase |
Breaks
down carbohydrate into simple sugars called
monosaccharides. |
- Skin problems
- Depression
- Mental sluggishness
- Fatigue
- Pre-menstrual
symptoms (PMS)
- Poor blood glucose
control
- Cold hands and feet
- Stiff joints
|
Protease
Bromelain (Proteolytic enzyme) |
Converts
protein into amino acids. Anti-inflammatory actions. |
- Frequent infections
- Sleeping problems,
anxiety
- Joint aches and
pains
- Food allergies
- Respiratory problems
- Cardiovascular
problems
|
Lipase
(Lipolytic enzyme)
|
Splits
fat into fatty acids and glycerol. |
- High cholesterol /
triglycerides
- Difficulty losing
weight
- Cellulite
- High blood sugar
levels
- Cardiovascular
problems
- Frequent diarrhea
|
| Cellulase |
Breaks
down fiber. |
- Excessive gas after
eating fiber-rich meals
- Constipation
|
| Lactase |
Helps
digest lactose (milk sugar) |
- Intolerance to dairy
products - gas, abdominal cramps, diarrhea
- Poor calcium
absorption
|
Maltase
Invertase (Sucrase) |
Hydrolyses
disaccharide maltose to glucose.
Breaks down
disaccharide sucrose (table sugar) into glucose.
|
|
| Alpha-galactosidase |
Breaks
down carbohydrate-rich legumes and vegetables (beans,
cabbage, cauliflower etc) |
- Gas, bloating,
cramping and general discomfort

| What
Digestive Enzymes Can Accomplish… |
|
 Alleviate
Digestive Complaints
Gas, bloating, nausea, body
aches, etc. may be attributed to poor digestion. These may be
clues that you are already enzyme-deficient, symptoms are
varied and often subtle. Adding supplemental enzymes to your
diet can also protect you from the discomfort of indigestion.
The more enzymes you have in reserve,
the stronger your immune system, and the better your health is.
Bolstering the body's supply of enzymes allows the immune system to
discover and destroy disease-causing microorganisms and toxins before
they do any harm. An abundant supply of enzymes can take care of the
delicate check-and-balance system in the body. This ensures that our
own white blood cells do not turn against us which could lead to
autoimmune problems.
 Reduce
Weight & Trim Bulges
Enzymes encourage efficient
metabolism. This helps you avoid false hunger and cravings
that come with digestive problems, allowing weight loss to
occur naturally and steadily.
Promote
Cardiovascular Health
When vital organs don't receive proper
nourishment from the blood, they become ill and inefficient. So does
the rest of you. Digestive enzymes may be the key to a longer,
healthier lifespan. Regular supplementation can reduce the formation
of artery-clogging fatty deposits.
Other
Benefits
Joints and muscles require adequate
amounts of nutrients in order to function. With enzymes, you can
remove the "rust" from your joints and muscles and
enjoy pain-free youthful flexibility once again. An adequate supply of
enzymes can also help maintain the health and attractiveness of your
skin by increasing the supply of skin-enhancing nutrients essential
for cell repair and rejuvenation.
