WHAT ENZYMES ARE AND HOW THEY WORK
You have probably heard references to the human body as a most complicated and intricate piece of machinery. But if you would delve into the deep study of the human enzyme system, you would be astonished and amazed by its ingenious design.<неиImagine for a moment an enormous chemical factory where crude raw materials are converted to precious elements through the complicated processes of billions of tiny particles known as enzymes. Your digestive system is such a chemical factory. Follow me on an excursion through it and we trace the process of conversion of crude food into the precious building blocks of your body.<неиSuppose you eat a simple meal of a cheese sandwich and a glass of milk. As soon as you glance at the menu and decide to order your sandwich—even before it is served to you—your chemical factory starts its work. The complicated machinery of food digestion is switched on the moment you make your mental decision to eat a certain food. The enzyme-producing glands located in your stomach and in your mouth are already producing valuable enzymes which will be needed shortly for mastication and swallowing and later for digestion. Enzymes are catalysts which bring about chemical changes in food to prepare them for easier digestion and assimilation.
