The Importance of enzymes in health
An enzyme is a substance naturally found within a cell, whose function is to create certain chemical reactions or to speed up (catalyze) chemical reactions within the body. Most enzymes are proteins, but some are ribonucleic acid (RNA) molecules. Each cell contains thousands of enzymes. The enzymes are never destroyed during any process, so, a cell can reuse each enzyme many times. Exposure to harsh chemicals, high changes in pH, disease, and heat can damage enzymes and change their shapes. Once enzymes are damaged, they fail to work and this affects the body processes that it normally supports. What do...
