As a leading seller of enzyme supplements, a question that we often get is regarding systemic enzymes, in particular. Systemic enzymes are enzyme supplements that work throughout the body, or “systemically”, as a biocatalyst, speeding up the chemical reactions that make up our life. The human body contains nearly 3,000 enzymes, with functions ranging from anti-inflammatory and anti-fibrosis, to blood cleansing and virus fighting. Enzymes play a large role in digestion as well, but for the purposes of this article, we are focusing on systemic enzymes in particular.
Typically, when you purchase your vitamins or other supplements, you look at the label and focus on the number of milligrams (mg) or grams (g) of each ingredient.

Enzymes are slightly different, however.
