Question

What are two enzymes that would help your body digest the meal you described, and how would they function? Explain your answer fully.

What are the similarities or differences between the two enzymes?

What do these similarities or differences suggest about the digestive system overall?

Answer 1

To better understand digestive enzymes, we must first understand the role of NUTRITION in our health. Nutrition is the body's ability to use and metabolize food. There are 45 known essential nutrients that are required in specific amounts for the body to function properly.

The expression "basic," as utilized here, implies the body can't incorporate them inside. Along these lines every "basic" supplement must originate from exogenous, or outside, sources. Notwithstanding starches, fats (lipids), finish proteins, and water, there are no less than 13 sorts of nutrients, and somewhere around 20 sorts of minerals required for appropriate metabolic capacity.

Once devoured, the sustenance containing these supplements must be processed, which means they should be broken separated and diminished to an express that the supplements can be ingested into and transported by the circulatory system to all parts of the body. Our body's cells are customized to guide every supplement to consolidate and collaborate with different supplements and synthetic substances to make still different synthetic substances and mixes which, thus, are utilized to manufacture and fix the body's cells, bones, tissue, and organs. The procedure is called digestion. Each metabolic response is begun, controlled, and ended by proteins.

Without enzymes, no metabolic activity will occur. A body that does not consistently and efficiently metabolize the essential food nutrients necessary cannot maintain optimum health.

DIGESTIVE ENZYMES

DIGESTIVE ENZYMES are made by our body's organs. Digestive enzymes are secreted by the salivary glands, stomach, pancreas, and the small intestine. [Technically, stomach related catalysts are additionally viewed as metabolic compounds whose metabolic job is to process nourishment. We are particularly recognizing these specific catalysts here, in light of the fact that they manage processing and they can be enhanced from an outside source.] Most food, when it is uncooked, contains enough natural food enzymes to digest that food. When you cook the food the enzymes are inactivated (denatured) and can no longer assist in the digestive (breaking down) process. Eating raw food is totally acceptable in some cases and quite unacceptable in others. We eat crude products of the soil crude vegetables, yet less regularly do we eat crude meat, crude fish (not withstanding sushi), or crude pork. Eating uncooked rice is about an ensured outing to your dental specialist! In this way, clearly we cook our sustenance. You realize that proteins, sugars, and fats are the three principle nutrition types that make up the greater part of our day by day diet. An "adjusted" diet implies we devour the best possible extents of these three essential nutritional categories once a day. This equalization, when joined with the affirmation that we likewise get the basic supplements, can help give a sound life — IF we legitimately process and utilize these supplements. To do this we likewise require a satisfactory wellspring of the significant kinds of stomach related compounds: Proteases, Amylases, and Lipases.

FOOD ENZYMES

FOOD ENZYMES are as of now present WITHIN the nourishment we eat. Sustenance proteins exist normally in crude nourishment. In the event that the nourishment is cooked, in any case, the high temperature associated with the cooking procedure will pulverize the compounds. Here's where the problem occurs. Cooked food contains no enzymes because they have been destroyed. If you eat a meal consisting of a salad, a steak and a baked potato, there are likely enough food enzymes contained in the salad to digest it (break it down so your body can use its nutrients). But, there are no extra enzymes available to help digest the steak or the baked potato.
