Enzymes

The Enzyme Story
Enzymes are proteins that facilitate chemical reactions in living organisms. In fact, they are required for every single chemical action that takes place in your body. All of your cells, organs, bones, muscles, and tissues are run by enzymes. Dr. Barron discusses the types of enzymes and why we need them for continued health and longevity.

Dr. Gonzalez discusses the work of brilliant Scottish biologist, John Beard and his work with ezymes and cancer.

ENZYMES: Difference Between Raw & Cooked Foods
After the most extensive and comprehensive study about nutrition ever conducted by the U.S. government, the U.S. Senate Select Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs concluded in its 1978 report entitled

Enzymes to Help With Digestion
Most raw food, like our bodies, is very perishable. When raw foods are exposed to temperatures above 116 degrees, they start to rapidly break down, just as our bodies would if we had a fever that high. One of the constituents of foods which can break down are enzymes.

The Healing Power of Proteolytic Enzymes
Proteolytic enzymes (or proteases) refer to the various enzymes that digest (break down into smaller units) protein. These enzymes include the pancreatic proteases chymotrypsin and trypsin, bromelain (pineapple enzyme), papain (papaya enzyme), fungal proteases, and Serratia peptidase (the "silk worm" enzyme).
