We are all born with a different potential for producing enzymes in our body; this is called
enzyme potential. The enzymes that we are born with are known as metabolic or digestive enzymes. If our parents and grandparents didn't eat enough enzymes in their diets, we will not have the genetic enzyme material in our own bodies for optimum health, much less the enzyme potential to pass on to our own offspring. Declining food diets over time will take its toll on the enzymes that offspring will have at birth.
Plus the more
digestive enzymes your body is forced to produce to digest your food, the fewer
metabolic enzymes you will have,
leaving your metabolism slow and sluggish.
The other type of enzymes are obtained in the foods we eat. The best source of food enzymes we can get come from freshly picked, raw fruits and vegetables that have not been irradiated, have been grown in rich organic soil, and come from heirloom, not GMO, seeds. These are called
food enzymes.
If your digestion is poor, metabolism slow, and you are feeling sick and tired all the time,
you could be suffering from enzyme depletion. Since none of us can go back and change our heredity, we can only overcome this deficiency by adding high quality enzymes to our daily diet.
We have already written extensively about enzymes. Please check out the links below to understand how important enzymes are to life and health.
