In 2014, enzymes were sweeping the shelves of Japanese cosmetics, a phenomenon so popular that it was almost impossible to keep up with. Momnet's encyclopedia couldn't help but recall the once-trending collagen and hyaluronic acid supplements. Perhaps you still have a bottle of unopened hyaluronic acid in your home? The hyaluronic acid, now widely promoted as a "weight loss", "beauty", and "detox" supplement, seemed to be able to do everything at once. Beauty enthusiasts might have also jumped on board after seeing the hype.

But is the enzyme really worth splurging on? What exactly is an enzyme? Can it help with weight loss? Let's delve into the specific benefits of enzymes.

Can enzymes help with weight loss? Weight loss seems to be an eternal topic, as there are always various reasons for one to gain weight, and then once fattened, everything is destroyed.

Enzymes have made a grand entrance as saviors, capable of slimming away stubborn fat and enhancing your complexion. If true, it's hard to resist the allure of mommywiki.

However, are enzymes really effective in weight loss? In reality, enzymes aren't that miraculous.

What is an enzyme? It's actually a type of enzyme. There are over 5000 kinds in the human body, all of which are catalysts that participate in metabolism and energy transformation within the body. Without them, we would be at our wits' end.

However, since we have various enzymes in our body, how do we know that the "enzyme" is exactly what directly acts on the skin or helps us to eliminate fat? It can't be measured, so the amazing effects of enzymes are merely marketing gimmicks.

Enzymes, also known as biocatalytic enzymes, participate in the metabolism and conversion of nutrients and energy, promoting the simultaneous degradation of various metabolic processes to meet the needs of life activities.

Therefore, it is said that if the level of enzymes in the human body is normal, we are healthier. But due to some diseases or old age, the level of enzymes in our bodies will decrease, and this will lead to various problems affecting our health and even endangering our lives.

You might be curious, where do enzymes come from? The popular enzymatic supplements available in the market can be derived from both animals and plants. Therefore, our body contains a variety of enzymes to help maintain life-sustaining activities.

How to choose enzyme drink? Since enzymes can cause various degradation metabolism in the cells, and our body's enzymes may also decrease due to various reasons, so by taking enzyme drinks to supplement enzymes seems to be a good thing.

SO, what should we do to choose the enzyme beverage? There are various enzymatic products on the market, such as enzyme beverages, raw enzyme capsules, and powder supplements. So, how should we choose them? Since we don't know the total amount of enzymes in the product, it is best to check who the company behind the product is before purchasing. After all, big brands are more reliable.

Secondly, we need to consider the absorption rate of enzymes. Enzymes are enzymes and some factors can make them lose activity. If the enzyme cannot arrive at our intestines alive, then even if we eat a large amount of it, it will be useless.

Therefore, powdered supplements are not the preferred choice. Enzymes lose their activity at temperatures above 60 degrees Celsius; it is advisable to opt for enzyme drinks or capsules instead.

However, it might be impossible for even experts to guarantee that the number of enzymes that survive and are absorbed by the stomach and intestines after drinking these fermented drinks.

Is making your own fruit enzymes beneficial? Searching online, after reading about enzymes and fruit enzymes, you might be more convinced by the media reports. After seeing all the hype surrounding these products, you might lose interest in them as they really don't seem that miraculous.

And making your own fruit enzymes, in the eyes of those studying food science, seems like something utterly amusing.

Making fruit-based fermented foods at home is actually quite unreliable, and some experts even suggest that the fruit-based fermented food is essentially a kind of pickled fruit.

The process of making fruit vinegar by layering fruits with sugar on the internet essentially involves natural fermentation. The resultant fruit vinegar is essentially a fermented product, similar to pickles.

Additionally, the raw materials for making fruit enzymes, fruits, may contain many microorganisms. If there is any deviation in the process of making it, then the resulting fruit enzymes will not be health-promoting but can be harmful to health.

Who needs to supplement enzymes? Although enzymes are trendy and are often labeled with various miraculous claims, I am quite calm about it (in fact, I have countless times wanted to fly to Japan to try out the products).

Let's talk about it. If a company really did develop a reliable enzyme, but people just went ahead and bought it without knowing the details, wouldn't that be risky? Moreover, we don't know exactly what kind of enzymes are in these products; some can lead to illness or weight gain! So, who needs to supplement with enzymes? If you're elderly, your body indicators have decreased, or if you have liver and kidney dysfunction, poor digestion, or frequent illnesses and low immunity, or if you're overweight or underweight, always feeling tired and exhausted, often leaving work with a headache, then you might consider supplementing with enzymes, as you really need them.
