Enzymes are the unsung heroes of good health. “We can’t exist without them, but few people understand the essential role enzymes play in life,” according to Dr. DicQie Fuller, author of a recently released book, The Healing Power of Enzymes, published by Forbes Custom Publishing.

Written in plain language, the book describes how enzymes act as catalysts, aiding digestion and supporting the body’s endocrine system. “Enzymes must be present before any chemical reaction can occur. Even vitamins, minerals, and hormones cannot do their job without enzymes,” notes Dr. Fuller. Dr. Fuller holds a double Ph.D. in nutrition and health sciences and has more than 20 years of experience in enzyme therapy.

Where do enzymes come from? Some are produced by the body, but most people lack sufficient enzymes because age and high stress reduce the body’s ability to make them, Fuller asserts. Enzymes in food are preserved in raw foods, but are destroyed in cooking. Dr. Fuller recommends supplements to bridge the gap.

The Healing Power of Enzymes explains how enzymes work and why they are necessary. The book identifies common symptoms of enzyme deficiency and offers a plan for individuals seeking to improve and maintain their health. Case studies provide compelling examples of how enzyme therapy has helped people with recurring or long-standing medical problems find relief. For example, a victim of chronic fatigue syndrome who was unable to hold down a regular job was back at work full-time after nine weeks of enzyme therapy.

The author also helps readers understand how their body type affects their food cravings and subsequent weight gain. “We as a nation spend over $35 billion dollars a year on weight loss programs,” Fuller notes. “And the only thing we are really losing is ground.” She provides specific diet and exercise programs tied to each of the four common body types that will keep excess weight off and energy levels at their peak.
