UNDERSTANDING PROTEOLYTIC ENZYMES by: Jon Barron Published in Natural Health Newsletter 08/26/2006 The vast majority of metabolic enzymes in the body, the enzymes that regulate everything from liver function to the immune system, are proteases, or proteolytic enzymes. Proteolytic is a catchall phrase for enzymes that specifically facilitate the chemical breakdown of proteins by breaking the bonds between the amino acids that make up those proteins. Proteolytic enzymes occur naturally in all organisms and constitute 1-5% of the gene content. They are polymorphic. The enzyme action they produce can adapt to meet the current digestive or metabolic needs of the body. In other words, proteolytic enzymes are able to adapt to the specific needs of their environment, plus they do not harm any healthy cells. Normal living cells are protected against destruction by the inhibitor mechanism. The bottom line is a healthy supply of these protein specific enzymes is essential for sustaining and maintaining optimal health. ===================== LIFE ENZYME is naturally extracted from 150 fruits and vegetables using an ancient oriental fermentation technique that allows for the full retention of their nutritional and enzyme potency.
