Enzymes and You
Enzymes and Their Importance
If you don't replenish enzymes in your body, you're on a precarious path. Scientists and physicians have discovered that enzymes are crucial for maintaining good health. Without them, you're more susceptible to allergies and illnesses, and in extreme cases, their absence may even lead to premature death. It is essential to eat the right foods to ensure a healthy enzyme count and maintain overall health.
Enzymes: The Key to Longevity
Before retiring in 1970, Dr. Edward Howell, a renowned food enzyme researcher, emphasized, "Enzymes may be the key to preventing chronic disease and extending human lifespan. They make life possible by facilitating every chemical reaction in the body. Without enzymes, no activity would occur. Even vitamins, minerals, and hormones rely on enzymes to function." Dr. Howell's work, including "The Status of Food Enzymes in Digestion and Metabolism" and "Enzyme Diet," highlights the vital role of enzymes.
The Role of Enzymes in the Body
Many people overlook the importance of enzymes in maintaining good health. They drive every reaction within our body; without them, we cannot survive. Insufficient enzyme production by the pancreas can lead to numerous health issues.
You might wonder, "If our pancreas produces enzymes, why do they need to be ingested through diet?" The answer lies in the body's limited ability to produce quality enzymes. Every time the pancreas produces enzymes, it "uses up" its capability to replicate them effectively. Our bodies are designed to work harmoniously with the enzyme content found in natural foods. When we consume raw food, it initially moves to the upper portion of the stomach where digestion primarily occurs. Contrary to common belief, it's not the stomach acids but the enzymes in food that digest it.
How Enzymes Aid Digestion
After enzymes act on food, it moves to the lower portion of the stomach where more enzymes continue the digestive process. The stomach's hydrochloric acid mainly lowers pH to aid enzyme activity. When food lacks enzymes, it triggers unhealthy responses.
Properly broken down food is absorbed as nutrients, while the rest undergoes a rotting process, releasing gas, harmful waste, and damaging beneficial bacteria in the colon.
The Impact of Enzyme Deficiency
The pancreas, meant to produce enzymes only a couple of times a day, is often overworked. This strain diminishes its ability to produce enzymes, gradually affecting the entire metabolic system. Over decades, frequent enzyme-deficient meals can impair the immune system, as white blood cells also rely on enzymes to eliminate foreign invaders and dead material.
Depleting metabolic enzymes impacts the body's ability to break down fats and harmful substances. Without lipase, the enzyme that digests fat, these substances accumulate, leading to weight gain and heart disease.
Embracing a Healthier Lifestyle
Good health results from lifestyle choices and daily habits. Long-term abuse of the body's systems inevitably causes significant damage.
How can we improve? Changing your lifestyle is crucial. Foods processed or cooked above 118 degrees lack enzymes. A raw salad can't compensate for a meal full of cooked foods, as each food contains enough enzymes to self-digest, but no more.
Ignoring these truths affects millions of people, despite the advanced medical system in the United States. If we continue as we are, we'll remain one of the unhealthiest modern nations. The choice is yours to transform your health by adopting a more enzyme-conscious diet.
