Enzyme Deficiency - Importance of Replenishing


Around age 30, "our enzyme potential has a problem somewhat similar to a checking account which could become dangerously deficient if not continually replenished.  Since good health depends on all these metabolic enzymes doing an excellent job, we must be sure that nothing interferes with the body making enough of them" (Dr. Edward Howell, Enzyme Nutrition, pg.4).  

So what does interfere with the body's ability to naturally produce enzymes?

Poor lifestyle choices people make consisting of fad diets, eating processed foods, taking prescription medication, consuming alcohol, over indulging in sweets and artificial sweeteners. These choices cause the body to work in overdrive to rid itself of toxins and reduce the body-wide inflammation.  Raw fruits and vegetables are loaded with natural enzymes, however, the conventional diet people are living on today is processed and depleted of these natural enzymes so enzyme supplementation truly turns into a necessity.  

Why is it so important to replenish your body's enzyme levels?

Metabolic and Digestive Enzymes are responsible for thousands of chemical reactions within the body that are associated with digestion, metabolic functions, detoxification, healthy immune system functioning, growth and natural healing.
