Metabolism refers to the chemical reaction that converts food into energy. Our bodies require energy to perform a wide range of functions, from moving to thinking to growing.
The chemical reactions of metabolism are controlled by specific proteins in the body. Thousands of metabolic events occur simultaneously, which are all regulated by the body in order to keep our cells healthy and functioning.
The Role of Enzymes in Boosting Metabolism
Enzymes are the key regulators of metabolism. They speed up and control the chemical reactions that break down nutrients, releasing energy for the body or storing it in tissues such as the liver, muscles, and fat.
- Digestion: Enzymes assist the body in breaking down bigger and more complex molecules, such as glucose.
- DNA Replication: When a cell divides, it must duplicate its DNA with the aid of enzymes.
- Liver: The liver uses enzymes to break down harmful substances in the body.
Will enzymes be depleted in our bodies?
As we get older, our body produces fewer enzymes, which can decline by over 60% by the time we reach 55. To tackle the health issues associated with aging, it becomes necessary to boost our enzyme levels and combat degenerative problems. The foods we eat provide the nutrients our body needs to produce enzymes and get energy from our meals. Fruits and vegetables play a key role in supporting this process.
The Ministry of Health’s (MOH) Malaysian Dietary Guidelines recommend 5 servings of fruits and vegetables daily. It helps to reduce the risk of getting metabolic syndrome, such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, and obesity. However, 85-95% of Malaysians have not consumed enough fruits and vegetables.
So… are you one of them? Are you able to consume at least 2 servings of fruits + 3 servings of vegetables in a day?
