                                           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.
