Natural Healing by ENZYME THERAPY
There are certain illnesses which practitioners of both traditional medicine and alternative medicine believe may be caused by digestive problems. One common digestive problem is the insufficient digestion of food. This is attributed to the absence of the necessary enzymes that should be present if food is to be eventually absorbed into the body. An enzyme is defined as a protein molecule whose special function is to act as a catalyst for certain cellular chemical reactions – the end result is that the enzyme aids chemical processes that are needed to support life. Enzymes can be categorized as either food enzymes (which come from plants) or pancreatic enzymes (which are derived from animals). Food (plant) enzymes are responsible for augmenting the vitality of the body as well as digestive efficiency. Pancreatic (animal) enzymes can also support the function of the digestive system while developing a sound and dynamic immune system. There are around 22 digestive enzymes which are created in our bodies. Each enzyme is known to digest carbohydrates, protein, sugars and fats. Digestion starts in our mouth and is carried out in the entire digestive system. For digestion to be carried out, specific enzymes are responsible for breaking down particular types of food. The whole digestive system normally maintains different levels of acidity at various points. This acidity is responsible for controlling the activity of the enzyme found in each particular segment of the digestive system. A healthy person is one in which every enzyme and every nutritious substance are used in the digestive system to create and sustain health. When a particular enzyme is emitted in scarce amounts, certain nutrients that need that enzyme are not absorbed properly. This is because nutritious substances function in a synergistic manner with enzymes. Enzymes can be either metabolic enzymes, digestive enzymes or enzymes that come from raw food. A metabolic enzyme is responsible for managing physiological processes, repairing body parts that suffer from injury or decay, and healing tissue. Digestive enzymes are tasked with absorbing carbohydrates, proteins and fats in our system. On the other hand, raw food enzymes trigger the food digestion process while supporting the role of our digestive enzymes. At this point, we must highlight the importance of the plant enzyme known as cellulase. Human beings can only get cellulase by consuming plant food – our bodies cannot make cellulase. However, the process of cooking frequently eliminates vital plant enzymes since they are destroyed by heat. The processes of pasteurizing, canning and microwaving also wipe out plant enzymes. Thus, to get the cellulase that we need, we should consume at least some raw plant food. If we insist on consuming mainly cooked food in our daily diet, our digestive tract suffers from the absence of satisfactory amounts of plant enzymes. One condition that results from this is inflammation (which comes in various forms.) There are definitely some types of food, such as protein, which cannot be digested if there are no enzymes. This undigested food matter stays in the human bowels (intestines) for a long time. As they remain undigested, they putrefy into toxic matter. The danger here is that such toxins are absorbed into our circulatory system and end up in the liver. The liver is responsible for detoxifying our blood but when it is overloaded with toxins it cannot do that thoroughly. This means that toxins wind up circulating throughout our body. A doctor will request for a 24-hour urine analysis, and a thorough medical history and physical exam if he wants to check you for food enzyme and nutritional deficiencies. After he has found which substances you are lacking in, the doctor may then be able to assess which enzyme group he should give you. You may receive enzyme therapy through shots or by mouth. The various types of enzymes may be administered in combination with one another. It is beneficial to prescribe the consumption of enzymes as supplements since the body may not be able to create satisfactory amounts of the necessary enzymes. It is recommended that enzymes be consumed in between meals so that they will not go towards the digestion of the meals. This is because enzyme therapy aims to alleviate the presence of digested substances in our blood, as well as in our intestines.
