This report reviews the scientific research done on enzymes and their connection to longevity. The hypothesis is that there is a predetermined finite amount of enzymes that can be made by the body throughout its life time, and when the supply is finally completely depleted, death occurs.
When one eats raw foods, one automatically gets the correct digestive enzymes to digest this food as they are "pre-packaged" along with the food. This releases the body from the need to produce digestive enzymes, freeing it up to manufacture more metabolic enzymes which are needed for ultimate performance and health. The pancreas can rest for this meal, there is less stress on the enzyme production mechanism, and some of the enzyme production potential is saved, thus supporting longevity and saving lifeforce.
