Power of Plants, Enzymes
Depression and Disease Reversal

2.  Enzymes are mainly protein-mineral complexes, that
increase rates of Chemical reactions with out
changing themselves
 5,000 enzymes have been ID
 Over 10,000 yet to be ID
 3 types:
1. Food
2. Digestive
3. Metabolic
*1930’s aspirin was
Used in canning because it stopped enzyme
activity

3. ENZYMES
* all enzymes are proteins, but not all proteins are
enzymes
* each chemical reaction in an organism requires its
own specific enzyme
(each chemical that is worked on is a substrate)
* enzymes can be called an ORGANIC CATALYST
* enzymes are never changed by their reactions!

Enzyme helpers are called COENZYMES (a.k.a.
VITAMINS)

enzymes are named for the chemicals that they "go to
work" on……..
enzyme names always end in -ASE
Lipase = for fat
Lactase = for milk sugars
Peptidase, Protease = for protein
 Amylase = Starches
*Patients with
Reflux avoid
Protease till
Gut is Healed
about 30 days

4.  glucose is locked up in many larger forms = starches and glycogen
 lactose and sucrose,
 One of the major jobs of digestion is to break these chains into their individual
glucose units, which are then delivered by the blood to hungry cells throughout your
body.
 Attacking Starch
 Alpha-amylase begins the process of starch digestion. It takes starch chains and
breaks them into smaller pieces with two or three glucose units. Two similar types of
amylase are made in your body--one is secreted in saliva, where it starts to break
down starch grains as you chew, and the other is secreted by the pancreas, where it
finishes its job. Then, these little pieces are broken into individual glucose units by a
collection of enzymes that are tethered to the walls of the intestine.
 Amylase in Action
 Since amylase needs to perform its job in the unpleasant environment of the
intestine, it is a small, stable enzyme resistant to unfavorable conditions. The
amylase shown here (PDB entry 1ppi) is made by the pancreas in pigs. A small chain
of five sugars (colored yellow) is bound in the active site, which is found in a large
cleft on the enzyme. Structures for the two human enzymes (which look very similar)
are available in PDB entries 1smd and 1hny. As you look through the PDB, you will

5.  Macrophage (big eaters) =
digest foreign materials or
dead cells
 T-lymphocytes = use
enzymes to destroy cancer
 Bromelain = protein digesting
plant enzyme (reduces
inflammation, reduces
excessive mucus prod., Anti
tumor effects, reduce clotting)

6. 10,000 Cancer Cells Destroyed Daily!!

7.  More people
live off
cancer than
die from
it.--- Dr.
Deepak
Chopra

8. Before the body can deteriorate into
cancer all the body's defense systems
have to be depressed and out of
balance. If your pancreas is working
properly and if you have adequate
pancreatic enzymes, you cannot
develop cancer.
Pancreatic enzymes , trypsin in
particular, disolve the protective
protein coating which covers
malignant tissue and makes it
impossible for the body's natural
immune defenses to recognize
the cancer cells as foreign.

9.  Food = raw or heat food 118 degrees
If food enzymes are destroyed then the pancreas as to work
harder
 Metabolic Enzymes
 Metabolic enzymes are responsible for the structuring, repair and
remodeling of every cell and tissue. Detox, energy prod., fight disease, and
rebuild tissue
 Digestive Enzymes (removed in processing)
 Digestive enzymes function as biological catalysts in our food, helping to
break down protein (proteinases), carbohydrates (amylases) and fats
(lipases).
 New Disease = Metabolic syndrome is linked to 75% of
all diseases (Blood tests high
lipids/sugars/protiens/triglicerides all are incomplete digestion

10. 1. Stop viruses adhering to cell
walls
(Cranberry bladder infect)
2. Antioxidant
3. Antibacterial
4. Stimulate or suppress enzymes
5. Stop Abnormal DNA replication
(Cancer)

11. Metabolism
Anabolism = Constructive metabolism
Re-growth Repair
Catabolism = Metabolic Breakdown , For energy burning
aspect dismantling of structural proteins
(starvation/Fat utilization)
R>B=Health
R<B=Disease

12.  Every cell in your body is dependant on the
quality of your blood
 High protein = Kidney dis.(Undigested proteins)
 High lipids = Heart dis/stroke (undigested fats)
 High sugars = Diabetes (undigested sugars)
 Undigested nutrients = toxic blood

13.  90% of what Americans buy is processed foods
 Processed foods are enzyme deficient
 Decreasing natural enzymes adds to shelf life

14. UCI Links Processed Foods to
Leukemia and Brain Tumors
University of California
at Irvine, showed that
children who eat as few
as three hotdogs a week
had 10 to 12 times
higher incidence of
leukemia and brain
tumors. Sausages are
perhaps the worst food.
They are chemically
treated, dyed and
preserved. They have
nitrates and
nitrosamines.

15. 1. Sensitivity – Low energy , Acne , body odor
2. Irritation – IBS, Constipation, Diarreha
3. Mucus Formation – Acid binding
4. Inflammation – Arthritis, Fibromyalgia
5. indurations - Hardening of the Arteries
6. Degeneration – Cancer, MS, Osteoporosis

16.  A diet high in the dietary acid fructose increases the risk of
developing high blood pressure (hypertension)
 The findings suggest that cutting back on processed acidic
foods and beverages that contain high fructose corn syrup
(HFCS) may help prevent hypertension.

Scientific Exposition in San Diego, California.

17.  These 2 classes of heart drugs handicap the heart by blocking nerves that control
heart muscle.
 the blood output of the heart is artificially reduced, causing less oxygen to reach the
body’s cells and tissues. The result will be normal blood pressure cuff .
 The body is now being forced to go through life with less oxygen than it needs, and
organs slowly start wearing out. Premature aging.
 Some standard beta blockers: Atenolol ,Propranolol ,Practolol ,Carvedilol

18.  Researchers looked at data from the Scandinavian Lymphoma Etiology study, which
compared over 3,000 patients with NHL with a similar number of healthy patients. …
those who had been given antibiotics more than 10 times as children.
 This could mean that the increasing use of antibiotics in the 20th century might also
explain the rise in NHL cases.
 Also True for NSAIDs
 There was also an increased risk of NHL for heavy users of non-steroidal anti-
inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). This includes ibuprofen drugs such as Motrin and
Advil.
 Sources:
 American Journal of Epidemiology November 15, 2005; 162(10): 965-974

19. 
Patients were also permitted to take a daily dose of aspirin use for cardiovascular
prophylaxis (325 mg/d).
 The researchers note that "Conventional nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs
(NSAIDs) are associated with a spectrum of toxic effects," something which many
patients are likely unaware of.
 The most obvious and striking thing about these results is the
tremendous rise in risk of aspirin users. …daily aspirin use raised the
GI complication risks up to 450%. For patients taking NSAIDs, daily
aspirin use raised the risks up to 335%.
 The authors note that "No difference was noted in the incidence of
cardiovascular events … irrespective of aspirin use."
 JAMA September 13, 2000;284:1247-1255

23.  Flavonoids are found in numerous fruits and vegetables, as well as in certain types
of tea. These compounds are thought to be antioxidants -- compounds capable of
'mopping up' free radicals, the harmful byproducts of normal metabolism.
 Numerous studies have suggested that antioxidants help prevent cancer, heart
disease, and other illnesses. The study focused on daily intake of three major
sources of flavonoids -- apples, broccoli, and tea.
 Of the three sources, only high broccoli consumption was associated with significant
reductions in heart attack. Flavonoids appear to reduce oxidation of LDL ('bad')
cholesterol in the bloodstream, preventing cholesterol from sticking to artery walls,
which can lead to clogged arteries and boost heart attack risk.
 American Journal of Epidemiology May 15, 1999;149:943-949

24.  A study of more than 125,000 healthcare workers found that just one additional
daily serving of fruit or vegetables lowered the risk of heart disease by 4%.
Vegetables such as spinach , kale , broccoli and fruits such as oranges ,
grapefruits
 The data support a protective effect of greater consumption of fruits and vegetables,
in particular green leafy vegetables and vitamin C-rich fruits and
vegetables, against risk for coronary heart disease.
 Increased fruit and vegetable consumption was also found to protect people with
type 2 diabetes against heart attack, a potential complication of the disease.
 Fruits and vegetables contain myriad compounds that have been linked with
improved health. Fiber , potassium , folate , antioxidants
 Annals of Internal Medicine June 19, 2001;134:1106-1114

25.  feel more energetic, more awake and healthier
 lose excess weight, look and feel younger and more vibrant.
 Digestive problems like ulcers and acid reflux decrease and
disappear.
 Skin conditions like acne clear up.
 Body odor decreases
 get far fewer illnesses.
 People with diseases see relief and many eventually heal when
their bodies are not burdened with toxins or an overload of
work and can clean out and repair themselves.

26.  juicing removes the indigestible fiber, so nutrients are available
to the body in much larger quantities than if the piece of fruit or
vegetable was eaten whole.
 when you eat a raw carrot, you are only able to assimilate about
1% of the available beta carotene. When a carrot is juiced,
removing the fiber, nearly 100% of the beta carotene can be
assimilated.

27.  No Microwave cooking
 Heat food to no more than 115-118 degrees
 Heat food slow and low (if you can touch it )
 Raw Dairy is good
 Raw Meats (sushi, Dried meats)
 Soaked Grains (soak in water 12-24 hrs) this cancels out the
enzyme inhibitor that stops grains from sprouting
 Juicing

40. 
Substance that acts as a catalyst in living organisms, regulating the rate at which
life's chemical reactions proceed without being altered in the process. Enzymes
reduce the activation energy needed to start these reactions; without them, most
such reactions would not take place at a useful rate. Because enzymes are not
consumed, only tiny amounts of them are needed. Enzymes catalyze all aspects of
cell metabolism, including the digestion of food, in which large nutrient molecules
(including proteins, carbohydrates, and fats) are broken down into smaller
molecules; the conservation and transformation of chemical energy; and the
construction of cellular materials and components.

42. Juicing helps you absorb all the nutrients from the
vegetables. This is important because most of us have
impaired digestion as a result of making less-than-optimal
food choices over many years. This limits your body's ability to
absorb all the nutrients from the vegetables. Juicing will help
to "pre-digest" them for you, so you will receive most of the
nutrition, rather than having it go down the toilet.
Juicing allows you to consume an optimal amount of
vegetables in an efficient manner. If you are a carb type,
you should eat one pound of raw vegetables per 50 pounds of
body weight per day.
You can add a wider variety of vegetables in your diet.
Many people eat the same vegetable salads every day. But
with juicing, you can juice a wide variety of vegetables that you
may not normally enjoy eating whole

body.
 The digestive glands secrete juices containing enzymes that
break down nutrients chemically
 Amylase in the saliva begins the process of breaking down
complex carbohydrates into simple sugars.
 the stomach produces pepsin to break down protien.

47.  “ The digestive system is not designed for
digestion it is designed for the alkalizing of food
in preparation of becoming the new blood then

 Dr Robert Young

50.  enzymes facilitate the conversion of food to energy and make
possible a variety of other necessary biological functions.
Enzymes in the human body fulfill one of three basic functions.
 metabolic enzymes, assist in a wide range of basic bodily
processes, from breathing to thinking.
 metabolic enzymes are devoted to maintaining the immune
system, which protects us against disease, controlling the
effects of toxins, such as tobacco smoke, converting them to
forms that the body can expel more easily.

51. A new study showed that measles virus is present in children with a new
form of bowel disease and the defect is linked to the triple measles,
mumps and rubella (MMR) vaccination.
The authors include Andrew Wakefield, whose work at London's Royal Free
Hospital in 1998 first raised fears that MMR vaccination may trigger bowel
disorders and autism in susceptible children.
The study was set up to investigate the presence of persistent measles virus
in children with ileocolonic lymphonodular hyperplasis, a new form of
inflammatory bowel disease that has been described in a cohort of
children with developmental disorder.
Results showed that 75 of 91 patients with a confirmed diagnosis of
ileocolonic lymphonodular hyperplasis and enterocolitis were positive for
measles virus in their intestinal tissue compared with five of 70 control
patients.
The data confirm an association between the presence of measles virus and
gut pathology in children with developmental disorder. The authors conclude
that the virus may act as an immunological trigger.

84.  The fact is, your body needs 22 amino acids in order to build protein molecules and
muscles. Of these 22 amino acids, there are 8 which the body cannot make and
must get from outside sources. All 8 are available in raw plant foods. And in raw
plant foods they are in a form which is easily assimilated and used by the body. All
the protein your body needs can be gotten from raw nuts, seeds, vegetables and
fruits.
 If you are still worried about protein, we recommend you get started on a raw food
diet, but eat very small amounts of meat (3 to 5 oz) only a few times a week. And try
to get the cleanest, organic meat, with no hormones, that you can. After some time
of doing this people generally find that they no longer feel they need the meat, and
end up not eating it anymore. In this way you can find out for yourself that you are
getting the protein you need
