"Man is not nourished by what he swallows,
but by what he digests and uses. ---Hippocrates"
Taking
steps
improve
digestion
of
proper
foods
by
taking
digestive
enzymes
should
be
the
first
approach
in
resolving
any
health
condition.
Enzymes
are
needed
for
every
chemical
reaction
that
takes
place
in
the
human
body.
No
mineral,
vitamin
or
hormone
can
do
any
work
without
enzymes.
They
are
the
workers
that
build
our
bodies
from
proteins,
carbohydrates
and
fats,
just
as
construction
workers
build
our
homes
from
wood
and
brick.
You
may
have
all
the
raw
materials
with
which
to
build
but
without
the
workers
(enzymes)
you
cannot
even
begin.
Enzymes
are
living
biochemical
factors
that
activate
and
carry
out
all
the
biological
processes
in
the
body,
such
as
digestion,
nerve
impulses,
the
detoxification
process,
the
functioning
of
RNA/DNA,
the
repair
and
healing
of
the
body,
even
thinking.
Each
enzyme
has
a
specific
task,
and
once
the
enzyme
has
completed
its
appointed
task,
it
is
destroyed.
For
life
to
continue,
you
must
have
a
constant
enzyme
supply
which
requires
continual
replacement
of
enzymes.
BioZyme
is
specifically
designed
to
aid
in
the
digestion
of
all
foods
including
proteins,
carbohydrates,
starches,
fats,
fibres
and
all
forms
of
sugar.
Every
individual
should
try
to
get
the
foods
they
eat
broken
down
into
their
smallest
components
for
absorption
of
vitamins,
minerals
and
other
nutrients.
A
diet
with
an
increase
of
raw,
whole
foods
will
also
assist
in
taking
some
of
the
"load"
from
the
pancreas
which
will
ultimately
allow
better
digestion
and
lessen
the
problematic
conditions
of
health.
The
BioZyme
formula
of
7
enzymes
contain
more
than
77
organic
minerals
and
some
selected
macro
minerals
to
act
as
co-factors
to
'trigger'
the
enzymes.
Four
of
the
enzymes
specifically
aid
in
the
processing
of
sugars
to
maintain
proper
glucose
and
insulin
levels.
This
enzyme
formula
is
derived
from
organic
aspergillus
and
is
effective
at
all
pH
levels
and
body
temperatures,
unlike
bromelain,
pepain,
and
pancreatic
enzymes.
Where
are
enzymes
found?
Enzymes
are
found
in
all
living
cells.
There
are
three
classes
or
enzymes:
metabolic
enzymes
which
run
our
bodies,
digestive
enzymes
which
digest
our
food,
and
food
enzymes
from
raw
foods,
which
start
food
digestion.
Metabolic
enzymes
All
our
organs
and
tissues
are
run
by
metabolic
enzymes.
These
enzymes
take
proteins,
carbohydrates
and
fats,
and
structure
them
into
healthy
bodies,
keeping
everything
working
properly.
Every
organ
and
tissue
has
its
own
particular
metabolic
enzymes
to
do
specialised
work.
Since
good
health
depends
on
all
of
these
metabolic
enzymes
doing
an
excellent
job,
we
must
make
sure
that
nothing
interferes
with
the
body
making
enough
of
them.
Our
ability
to
make
metabolic
enzymes
tends
to
decrease
with
age,
and
our
reserves
of
them
are
depleted
during
times
of
stress
such
as
strenuous
exercise,
extremes
of
weather,
money
worries,
and
illness,
or
by
drinking
caffeinated
or
alcoholic
beverages.
Digestive
enzymes
Digestive
enzymes
are
present
in
the
saliva,
stomach,
and
intestines
of
every
human
being.
Of
the
1,300
or
so
enzymes
currently
identified
in
the
human
body,
only
24
of
them
are
digestive
enzymes.
However,
the
body
uses
up
more
of
its
enzyme
potential
supplying
these
24
enzymes
than
it
does
the
hundreds
of
metabolic
enzymes
needed
to
keep
all
of
its
organs
and
tissues
functioning
with
their
diversified
activities.
The
three
main
types
of
digestive
enzymes
are:
proteases
which
digest
protein,
amylases
which
digest
carbohydrates,
and
lipases
which
digest
fats.
The
body
will
make
no
more
enzymes
than
are
actually
needed
for
a
particular
job
-
this
is
called
the
Law
of
Adaptive
Secretion.
So,
the
more
digestive
enzymes
are
needed,
the
more
the
body
uses
(but
remember,
there
is
a
limited
supply!).
Food
enzymes
It
is
a
proven
scientific
fact
that
each
raw
food
comes
complete
with
its
own
set
of
specifically
combined
enzymes
to
digest
that
particular
food.
The
enzymes
in
whole
food
act
to
complete
the
food's
development
and
maturing.
If
the
ripened
process
isn't
interrupted
by
heat
or
cold,
it
continues
until
the
food
disintegrates
by
rotting
-
it,
quite
literally,
decomposes
itself.
Overripe
fruit,
rotten
potatoes
and
aged
prime
beef
have
a
lot
in
common
-
non-stop
enzymatic
activity.
When
this
disintegration
process
occurs
within
the
body,
it
is
called
digestion.
