WOMEN'S HEALTH Dr. Fuller-Looney has focused majority of her research and practice on women's health issues, and connection between hormones and enzymes. She says, "The symptoms of poor protein digestion are 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 to building of muscle and hormones. These must all go together."

Recently, doctors have found that conducting hormone replacement therapy using animal hormone sources created unintended effect of susceptibility to cancers. It was discovered that because there were many substances besides hormones in 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 on useable hormones, making it especially uncomfortable and unhealthy to "come off" 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 that symptoms of menopause are exact same symptoms of non-digestion of protein. Everything we eat must be broken down by enzymes first, then hormones can be created by body. Therefore, by providing a sufficient supply of enzymes, sufficient hormone levels can be created.

Besides need for proper protein digestion for certain types of hormones, fat metabolism is also critical in production of hormones, since most hormones are synthesized by body from cholesterol. Failed fat digestion causes cholesterol to buildup in bloodstream, leading to circulatory blockages and low hormone levels.

WEIGHT LOSS Chronic appetite cravings that lead to overeating are a warning by 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 because foods they do eat get fully digested, giving their bodies 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, then more of it they eat, more of it they will crave. Enzyme supplementation is what bridges gap between biochemical deficiencies and nutritional balance. Enzyme therapy has given countless patients key to weight loss."

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

Dr. Fuller-Looney recommends 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 with intention to have a joyous and balanced day.

And...take your enzymes!
