Therefore a lack there of would hinder proper function. Dr. Bharucha also mentions that “rapid intestinal transit and diminished surface area impair digestion” therefore leading to diarrhea

    reintroduces digestive enzymes to the process. Once digestion is completed the nutrients are passed through the intestinal wall and into the bloodstream. For most of us the food entering our stomach is severely enzyme deficient because of processing and cooking.  Any food that sustains heat of approximately 118 to 129 degrees fahrenheit destroys the enzymes. The food then sits there for an hour‚ like a heavy lump‚ with very little pre-digestion taking place. This forces the body to produce large

    LITERATURE REVIEW INTRODUCTION OF ENZYMES Enzymes are complex proteins that cause a specific chemical change in all parts of the body (David C. Dugdale‚ 2011). When we understand enzymes we understand cells (Marshall Brian‚ 2001). In many organisms most chemical reactions are catalyzed -when a substance speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction- by enzymes. Each enzyme controls a certain function that happens in a cell. Still each one has its own process and rate that it converts molecules. Studying

    Parts of the digestive system The digestive system consists primarily of the alimentary canal‚ a tube that extends from the mouth to the rectum. As food moves through this canal‚ it is ground and mixed with various digestive juices. Most of these juices contain digestive enzymes‚ chemicals that speed up reactions involved in the breakdown of food. The stomach and the small intestines‚ which are parts of the alimentary canal‚ each produce a digestive juice. Other digestive juices empty into the alimentary
