Our bodies become dis-eased and out of balance from stress. There are three forms of stress: mechanical (structural), nutritional and emotional.
When we work with a patient on their nutritional imbalances we take a thorough case history and incorporate a 24-hour urinalysis and a homeostatic challenge exam. To learn more about the urine test and challenge exam go to www.loomisinstitute.com.
Many people do not realize the important part enzymes play in the overall health and well-being of their bodies. Enzymes are the spark of life. They are the workers that make your body function. Although the action of enzymes cannot be seen, it is the driving force behind virtually every biochemical process that occurs in the body. There are hundreds of thousands of enzymes active in every organ, tissue, and fluid, and each has its own function. Enzymes activate our muscles, stimulate our nerves, make our hearts beat, keep us breathing, and even help us think. These complex biochemical substances are also able to covert nutrients from food to strong, healthy bodies

What Are The Symptoms of Enzyme Deficiency?
Consumers spend over 80 billion dollars each year to relieve heartburn, excess acid, bloating, and other symptoms of indigestion. Fatigue, diarrhea/constipation, gas, headaches, colon problems, hardening of the arteries and high cholesterol are just a few of the conditions that stem from a shortage of enzymes. All of these symptoms can be attributed to poor digestion. If allowed to progress, chronic degenerative diseases may become evident in later years. If you are showing any signs of these symptoms, it is possible that you already are enzyme deficient.
You Eat A Balanced Diet, So Why Would You Need Enzymes?
If you eat food that is steamed, boiled, roasted, broiled, fried, stewed, canned, pasteurized, or even microwaved, you need food enzymes. Enzymes are the most heat sensitive nutrients found in food. When food enzymes are missing, the body is forced to produce all the enzymes necessary for digestion. This puts unwarranted stress on the organs of digestion which must rob enzymes from your immune system to digest your food.
This enzyme nutrition therapy is very exciting because if fills in many gaps and questions other nutritional approaches haven’t addressed. These unanswered questions include:
- Why do some people develop degenerative and chronic conditions.
- Why doesn’t every one respond 100 % to their chiropractic treatments.
- Why do vitamin and mineral supplements work for some and not for others.
- Why do we see more degenerative diseases today than we did 75 years ago.
