Got a joke for you. It's titled as "Curious Camel." Here it goes...

A mother and baby camel are talking one day when the baby camel asks, "Mom why have I got these huge three toed feet?"
The mother replies, "Well son, when we trek across the desert your toes will help you to stay on top of the soft sand".
"Ok," said the son. A few minutes later the son asks, "Mom, why have I got these great long eyelashes?"
"They are there to keep the sand out of your eyes on the trips through the desert", the camel mother answers.
"Thanks Mom" replies the son. After a short while, the son returns and asks, "Mom, why have I got these great big humps on my back??"
The mother, now a little impatient with the boy replies, "They are there to help us store water for our long treks across the desert, so we can go without drinking for long periods."
"That's great mom, so we have huge feet to stop us sinking, and long eyelashes to keep the sand from our eyes and these humps to store water, but... Mom?"
"Yes son?"
"Why the heck are we in the San Diego zoo?"
You can stop laughing now, and let me tell you about the recommended digestive enzymes. Digestive enzymes are important so that we can live. Digestive enzymes break down complex proteins, carbohydrates and fats into smaller and simple pieces for usable form. They are responsible in transforming food into energy so that the body can use them. Without it would be useless eating for we won't be able to convert to energy and nutrition. Two examples of digestive enzymes that are important to us are Lipase and Cellulase. Lipase digests the fast in the body and Cellulase breaks down fiber.

Though our bodies can produce digestive enzymes by themselves there are also foods that are rich with digestive enzymes. Foods that are a good source for lipase would be rape seeds, soybeans, rice, wheat germs, spinach, romaine lettuce, raw red meats, flaxseed, corn, coconuts and avocado. For Cellulase, the best food source are reishi mushrooms, avocados, peas and oat sprouts.

But one sure source for all the digestive enzymes and not just one or two of them is digestive enzymes supplements. The best one are those all-natural, 100% vegetarian plant-based supplements as they are safe and very effective. So if you are looking for other digestive enzyme sources other than your body produces the foods and supplements are the ones you are looking for.

As I end, let me leave you with a quote from Buddha. It says, " every human being is the author of his own health or disease. " Bye!
