In a message dated 98-08-18 16:38:54 EDT, you write:
<< Yes, I'm pretty certain that's correct. Enzymes (organic catalysts) are
proteins, and are destroyed by digestion. It's basically impossible to
obtain any health benefit from ingesting enzymes, even if those same
enzymes are very beneficial when operating normally in your body. >>
I'm sorry but that's not the case. I'll give you an example, my health
dramatically improved when I began eating raw foods rather than cooked. My
aunt's health greatly improved when she added digestive enzymes to her cooked
meals. I just read an article in my local paper the other day about two dogs
with hip dysplaxia who healed after several weeks of using enzyme supplements
in their regular food.
Research suggests that eating enzymatically active food spares the pancreas as
the pancreas triples in size when people and animals eat primarily cooked
food. I am aware of the strain that eating cooked food causes on my own body.
And research suggests that the small intestine DOES absorb any enzymes not
lost in digestion.
Try living on a raw food diet and compare...
