When the food we eat is not properly digested, over time, one thing is
virtually guaranteed to happen - we get sick. There is ample and growing
evidence that the primary cause of most health problems is digestive
malfunction. Optimum health is a direct function of our ability to properly
digest and utilize the food we eat and then expel the by-product in an efficient
way. Undigested food creates toxic waste in our body. The toxicity sets into
motion the onset of disease - digestive acne, rosacea, sensitive skin,
arthritis, fibromyalgia, irritable bowel syndrome, colitis, chronic heart burn,
and cancer - to name a few. These maladies are typically misconstrued as the
inevitable frailty of aging or the unexplained action of heredity and genetics.
Many of these conditions can be prevented and/or reversed with lifestyle
modification combined with detoxification and digestive enzyme therapy. With the proper application
of supplementary digestive enzymes, latent metabolic processes can be restored
and internal biological systems returned to homeostasis.
We at Longevity Aesthetics understand how a healthy digestive system can more
efficiently remove toxins and prevent their build up that leads to skin
disorders such as premature aging, acne and rosacea. Internal therapies
are an essential step in restoring healthy skin.
Research in mice shows that those fed digestive enzymes and antioxidants
lived much longer (up to 50% longer), healthier lives than mice not supplied
with these vital nutrients.
There is substantial documented evidence that certain nutrient factors can
dramatically slow down the aging process. Our bodies produce some of the
enzymes we need, but some must come from the food we eat and cooking food kills
the enzymes. Americans do not eat enough raw vegetables and fruits to
supply us with a healthy level of enzymes. Bodies under distress struggle
to supply the enzymes we need. When they are in short supply toxins can
build up in the body and cause many skin conditions and health problems.
