Enzymes and Modern Stress

Written by Boyd Martin

WOMEN'S HEALTH Dr. Fuller-Looney has focusedrepparttar majority of her research and practice on women's health issues, andrepparttar 114787 connection between hormones and enzymes. She says, "The symptoms of poor protein digestion arerepparttar 114788 same symptoms of menopause. Some of our young girls are starting their periods so early and our women are having so many problems because it all goes back to digestion. Protein digestion leads torepparttar 114789 building of muscle and hormones. These must all go together."

Recently, doctors have found that conducting hormone replacement therapy using animal hormone sources createdrepparttar 114790 unintended effect of susceptibility to cancers. It was discovered that because there were many substances besides hormones inrepparttar 114791 animal sources, it was overwhelming women's elimination organs, causing toxic buildups, eventually leading to cancers. What's worse is that a reliance had been created onrepparttar 114792 useable hormones, making it especially uncomfortable and unhealthy to "come off"repparttar 114793 hormones. This is where enzyme supplementation comes in.

Says Dr. Fuller-Looney, "Health care professionals cannot cure all of their patient’s symptoms just by giving out hormones. Doctors have finally seen that. Doctors now need to see that they also must give enzymes. A woman who is hormonally imbalanced by age twenty-five continues that way to early menopause. In fact, some little girls have been on birth control hormones since they were eight or nine years old. It is no surprise, then, that hormonal imbalance is so prevalent."

Dr. Fuller-Looney has noted thatrepparttar 114794 symptoms of menopause arerepparttar 114795 exact same symptoms of non-digestion of protein. Everything we eat must be broken down by enzymes first, then hormones can be created byrepparttar 114796 body. Therefore, by providing a sufficient supply of enzymes, sufficient hormone levels can be created.

Besidesrepparttar 114797 need for proper protein digestion for certain types of hormones, fat metabolism is also critical inrepparttar 114798 production of hormones, since most hormones are synthesized byrepparttar 114799 body from cholesterol. Failed fat digestion causes cholesterol to buildup inrepparttar 114800 bloodstream, leading to circulatory blockages and low hormone levels.

WEIGHT LOSS Chronic appetite cravings that lead to overeating are a warning byrepparttar 114801 body that it is not properly digesting those foods. When enzyme supplementation is applied to weight loss, people report a lack of cravings, lowered hunger, and more energy. This is becauserepparttar 114802 foods they do eat get fully digested, giving their bodiesrepparttar 114803 nutrients it needed.

"What a person lacks in enzymes will determine what they need in food," declares Dr. Fuller-Looney. "If they cannot break down a certain food, then their body will crave that nourishment even more. However, regardless of how much of it they eat, they will not benefit from it. If they are unable to properly digest their food, thenrepparttar 114804 more of it they eat,repparttar 114805 more of it they will crave. Enzyme supplementation is what bridgesrepparttar 114806 gap between biochemical deficiencies and nutritional balance. Enzyme therapy has given countless patientsrepparttar 114807 key to weight loss."

USE ENZYMES! Unlike hormone replacement therapy, or some over-the-counter sleep aids,repparttar 114808 body does not become dependent on enzyme supplementation. Enzymes are already being produced inrepparttar 114809 body in response to food intake. The problem lies inrepparttar 114810 inadequate production of enzymes to meetrepparttar 114811 demands of modern stress factors, including denatured fast food, environmental toxins, economic and emotional stress. Therefore, enzyme supplements helprepparttar 114812 body to simply catch up to its demands. Acknowledging and understanding this isrepparttar 114813 key to lifestyle change.

Dr. Fuller-Looney recommendsrepparttar 114814 following general guidelines for a healthy lifestyle:

• Breathing Exercises (Yoga, etc.) especially when nervous or upset. • Meditation to forget thoughts and come to peace. • Feed your spirit--speak to your inner source. • Adjust your attitude or intention every day. Get up withrepparttar 114815 intention to have a joyous and balanced day.

And...take your enzymes!

Replacing fillings: Using modern materials forrepparttar 114789 front and most prominent teeth can causerepparttar 114790 dental restoration work to blend in withrepparttar 114791 general colour ofrepparttar 114792 tooth.

Bonding: A synthetic material that looks like natural tooth enamel is bonded torepparttar 114793 enamel tooth surface. Because it can be shaped and polished, this material can alterrepparttar 114794 colour, texture, size, shape and even, to an extent,repparttar 114795 position ofrepparttar 114796 teeth. The treatment can be applied torepparttar 114797 eight to twelve upper front teeth. It lasts from three to six years.

Veneering: A technique similar to bonding – only more permanent. A thin, hard porcelain veneer is individually made for each tooth torepparttar 114798 correct colour, size and shape.

These fillers are, for example, bovine collagen, or natural hyaluronic acid (Restylane). The effect lasts up to twelve months. The substance ofrepparttar 114805 lip can also be increased by injecting Restylane or even fat from another part ofrepparttar 114806 body intorepparttar 114807 lip itself.

So how can your smile make you look younger? Look inrepparttar 114808 mirror for a few minutes. Decide what parts of your face, and particularly your smile, you would like to rejuvenate usingrepparttar 114809 techniques mentioned above. Then consult with a cosmetic dental surgeon, who can show you an accurate simulation of how treatment would look on your face. It is advisable to do this before going ahead with any cosmetic surgery on your face.

Most cosmetic medical surgeons are still not orientated or even knowledgeable enough about what cosmetic dentists are able to achieve with teeth. A few short dental treatments can take years off your looks, helping you evaluate whether other surgery is necessary.
