WHAT ARE BIOZYME(ENZYME)

Enzymes, like other proteins, consist of long chains of amino acids held together by peptide bonds. They are present in all living cells, where they perform a vital function by controlling the metabolic processes, whereby nutrients are converted into energy and new cells. Moreover, enzymes take part in the breakdown of food materials into simpler compounds. As commonly known, enzymes are found in the digestive tract where pepsin, trypsin and amylases break down starch into simple sugars.
