here are enzymes everywhere in your
body, but each one has to perform the task

set out for it. Different enzymes work in
different forms, at different speeds and
with different substrates, which accounts
for their variety.
Enzymes are generally classified ac-
cording to the basic functions they per-
form. Enzymes that maintain the body's
entire metabolism, from the respiratory
system to the nervous system, are known

as metabolic enzymes. Those groups known
as food enzymes are those we absorb togeth-
er with the foods we eat. The third enzyme
group is known as digestive enzymes.

Foodstuffs are broken down and di-
gested, following which countless metabol-
ic processes take place. Metabolism is the
name given to the magnificent phenomena
taking place in an organism's cells and con-
trolled by enzymes, which direct every
metabolic process in the body, bringing
about energy and substance production.
