Nutrients - Enzymes

"Out of 2.1 million deaths a year in the United States,
1.6 million are related to poor nutrition."
-- C. Everett Koop, Former Surgeon General

Enzymes, the sparks of life, are involved in every life process in the body. They are an essential link in stamina, energy level, and ability to utilize vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, as well as contributing to the immune system’s ability to protect our health.

Plant enzymes are the most important factor in maintaining radiant health and vitality. A secret to staying young and healthy, enzymes work on a digestive level and metabolically (throughout the body).

Lack of enzymes contributes to disease and chronic degenerative conditions. With assimilation impaired, absorption of putrefying matter can occur throughout the body. Thus, an unhealthy body lacks resistance to germs, which proliferate in this environment. Working on all pH levels (2.5-9), these enzymes affect the length and quality of life by breaking down old cellular mucous and toxins, then expelling it from the organism. Inflammation can be reduced, while immune system activity is increased.

Enzymes are essential for digesting food, stimulating the brain, providing cellular energy and repairing all tissues, organs and cells. Each enzyme has a specific function in the body that no other enzyme can fulfill. The enzymes in sea vegetation enable the various areas of the cells to perform at their maximum cellular metabolic rate and aid in the natural unlocking and unbinding of minerals, making them available and more efficiently useful at a cellular level.

Some enzymes assist the cells in various organs and tissues to create and manufacture the hormones necessary for body function, such as corticosteriods from the adrenal cortex, growth hormones from the pituitary gland and androgens from the testes.

The enzymes found in sea vegetation also may aid in the binding, withdrawal and removal of numerous toxic chemicals and residues, which have accumulated in our bodies. Without enzymes the body would never utilize the food we ingest.
