The Medical Guru

Then Fang Qiu picked up the third product.

“Hmm, this one is regular.”

Taking a look at the effect descriptions on the third product packaging, Fang Qiu zoomed in on the camera and said, “Regulate probiotics in the gut, help digestion, accelerate the absorption of nutrients, and reduce inflammation.

“The fourth one reads: involves the various biochemical reactions of the human body and maintains normal body functions.

“The fifth one reads: clear up stool, regulate the environment in the body, purify the blood, purify and repair various functions of the body, increase the metabolism of the body, and improve sub-health. It is a necessary nutritional supplement for the body.”

With that, Fang Qiu couldn’t help laughing.

Then…

He put the product in his hand back on the table.

“Well, what are enzymes?”

Faced the camera, Fang Qiu said, “In recent years, enzymes have caused a sensation in Huaxia. It can be said that it has been praised as an ‘Elixir’. So, are enzymes of any use?”

Speaking of this…

Fang Qiu picked up a bottle of enzyme product and said, “To put it bluntly, enzymes are fermented enzymes. But, this thing is called ‘enzyme’ in Nihon, and this term has also been transmitted to Huaxia, so it is also called ‘enzyme’.

“Enzymes are a highly efficient biological catalyst that can accelerate the activity of the cells in the human body…”

When they heard Fang Qiu’s explanation…

All the viewers who were watching the show were stunned.

“Is that so?”

“Even the name came from Nihon. Really?”

“Is he kidding?”

Although not all, many Huaxianese held a resistance emotion to Nihon.

On TV…

Fang Qiu continued his lecture.

“So, are enzymes useful?

“I’ve read a lot of news reports, saying that nowadays, people eat well but move little every day, resulting in excessive nutrition, slow metabolism, and health problems. To solve this situation, people need to eat something called ‘enzyme’. Just taking one pill can detoxify and beautify, lose weight, and cure diseases!

“I’ve carefully checked this on the Internet. On some shopping websites, inputting the word ‘enzyme’, nearly 180,000 related products appear, like enzyme powder, enzyme pills, enzyme stock solution, and so on. Their prices look very high, but they are selling very well.

“Some salesperson once recommended to me, saying that enzymes in these products can replenish fermented enzymes in the human body, and they are the same thing. Enzymes are currently the best among health products and even have a certain effect on anti-cancer and cancer prevention.

“Another salesperson told me that these enzyme products have the effect of nourishing the skin because they contain SOD, i.e. superoxide dismutase. The SOD is an antioxidant substance, and its antioxidant capacity is very strong.”

Speaking of this…

Fang Qiu shook his head again and said, “After testing it, I found that there are a total of 428 active units in each gram of enzymes, yet one gram of lettuce tender leaves contains 466 active units, and one gram of tomatoes contains 524 active units.

“That is to say, in a box of the enzyme products you bought, the amount of SOD, the main active ingredient, is not as much as that contained in 1,000 grams of lettuce or tomatoes.

“Moreover, most part of the so-called enzyme exists in the form of proteins. After digestion in the gastrointestinal tract, its activity is almost completely destroyed.

“In addition, as a doctor, I can tell you with full responsibility, that enzymes in the human body are generally self-sufficient, and they don’t require additional replenishment. Even if they do, they shouldn’t be orally taken.”

Speaking of this…

Fang Qiu paused for a moment and then continued, “Then, someone might say, existence is reasonable, and since the enzyme is so popular abroad, it has its value.

“Sure enough, enzymes originated from Nihon. In Nihonese, the word ‘enzyme’ means fermented enzyme.

“So, how’s the sales of enzymes in Nihon going?

“There is a very authoritative report on the Internet about a professor of the School of Life and Environment, Kansley University in Nihon, who said with certainty that enzyme drinks and enzyme products are just a name of the commodity. Just regard them as commodities, and these things are not the same as enzymes.

“In Nihon, enzymes first referred to the fermented enzyme, but later, some people named the fruit and vegetable fermented products ‘enzymes’. Although they have the same name, the merchants and consumers all understand that the two are not related.
