What are Enzymes?

"Any of several complex proteins that are produced by cells and act as catalyst in specific biochemical reactions".
They are catalyzers, protein carriers with vital energy. Source of vital energy for various bodily functions:

CATALYZE - Speeds up chemical reactions between two chemicals
CATALYST - a substance that initiates or accelerates a chemical reaction without itself being affected.

Basically, we cannot live without enzymes. That is an absolute fact!
  • When we blink an eye, carry a heavy object, think for a solution to a problem, various types of enzymes are involved to achieve these.
  • All our tissues and organs need enzymes to function.
  • No cell would function without enzymes.
  • The entire human body cannot function or be maintained and repaired without enzymes.
