Enzymes are ubiquitous in nature over 5 000 have been discovered and they make life possible. Without them biochemical processes would come to a halt, with a pile-up of toxins and other chemicals in the body. Through their action the chemical processes in the body move very rapidly and efficiently. Energy is produced, toxins removed, digestion occurs efficiently, wounds heal, blood is prevented from clotting and thousands of other reactions occur within and outside the cells.
