Q48-Could you comment on how enzymes affect our colon?

Researchers have shown that cooked food passes through the digestive system more slowly than raw food.  In the small intestine and colon, the digested food ferments, rots, and putrefies.  These harmful substances are then absorbed into the body and cause  gas, heartburn and terrible degenerative diseases, such as arthritis, cardiovascular disease, cancer, and diabetes.

Colon researchers have found that much of the body weight can be just waste accumulated within the 100,000 miles of blood vessels, the lymphatic system, bone joint and intra-extra-cellular regions.  The largest amount of waste is found in the impactations within the colon structures.  This waste can add up to fifty pounds if one's diet consists of cooked greasy foods.  Unfortunately, some of this partially digested cooked food found along the small intestine and colon passes into the bloodstream and is deposited as waste throughout the system.  If this waste is calories, it can show up as obesity; if it's excess minerals, we have arthritis; excess protein becomes cancer; fat leads to high cholesterol; and sugar to diabetes. 

 Enzymes in the diet will digest the food into smaller particles that are better utilized by the body rather than sending it to the colon as waste and enzymes also assist in removing waste from the system..
