To "know" is where science comes in, the url provided provides the science
underlying their conclusions, can the same be said for those who advocate
that category of supplement? Science let's us, over time, get out of the
"he said she said" pick and choose opinion and come to an informed
conclusion based on repeatable controlled research, far too much of those
advocating these products have only testimonials. If these substances are
not destroyed by digestion then it should be quite easy to find them x
amount of time after ingestion in the blood stream in proportion as an
increase. If they are destroyed by digestion then no such increase can be
shown. That should be the first step for any scientific basis for
thinking they enter the blood and do this or another beneficial thing.

Dr. Anthony Cichoke, the author of this book, is only selling his book,
not his supplements, as far as I understand. Most of the pages are
reference, with a comprehensive bibliography, an extensive appendix of
manufactures who sell enzymes, which one could find in almost any large
company's catalog, such as Vitamin Shoppe, Vitamin World, etc. I don't
know.
As far as research being done on enzymes, there has been extensive research
done over the last century. Those who don't try to understand the effects
of food, vitamins, medication, environment, etc. on human beings are doomed
to illness.
On the url you sent to read (Quackwatch) is about a particular company and
their claims for their product (in column one). In the second column, is a
list of "facts" to dispute these claims, which are 'findings' by Robert S.
Baratz, MD, DDS, PhD, Manfred Kroger, PhD, (...a detailed analysis of these
claims.) There is no research sourced for each of their findings.
Thanks for your opinion.
My appreciation.
Dee
