Enzymes are the spark of life.  They are the driving force behind every biochemical process in the body, including digestion.  Most think we digest food automatically, so all we need to do is eat properly and take the correct vitamins and minerals to be healthy.  In truth, poor digestion is at the root of many symptoms causing uncomfortable or poor health.  Plant enzymes (not animal) are very beneficial, as they have the capability of digesting food before our own digestive process begins.  Food eaten without necessary enzymes for digestion causes the body to stop other important bodily functions, in order to take care of the food in the stomach.  Thus you become sluggish, compromise your immune systems, get tired muscles, your breathing is affected,  thought process can be obstructed, etc.  You get the picture!  (By the way, only raw foods contain enzymes, as they are very heat sensitive.  This means foods that are steamed, boiled, roasted, stewed, fried, broiled, canned, pasteurized, or  microwaved, are void of enzymes.)

Plant enzyme supplementation makes sense if you have any of the following symptoms:  aches & pains, headaches, allergies, heartburn, gas & bloating, constipation, diarrhea, anxiety, depression or insomnia.  Poor digestion is at the root of these symptoms for the reasons just stated.  Digesting food takes precedence over other body functions for the time it takes to fully digest your food.   

It is important to know which enzymes and nutrients your body needs to relieve the symptoms.  Learn how you can heal yourself.
