Enzyme supplements (body dependence)?

[janicejourney]

I just ordered Alissa's Enzymes. I am a little concerned about the body using help with enzymes. Will it become dependent on them? Is there any research about this? I did a quick google and found nothing much.

Hi Janicejourney -

I have been doing some research on that. I have read a few things that says the body might get dependent, but the majority says no. Logically, especially if eating raw, I would think not because the body only supplies enzymes if it has to. If you are getting enough exogenously (from outside sources, whether they be food or supplements), then the body does not need to deplete itself.

Just my thoughts - I am looking forward to others' opinions.
