Obesity is related to enzyme deficiency! Japanese health expert: Which enzyme do you lack based on the four body types?

Are you often dissatisfied with your body shape? Or have you been trying to lose weight but never succeeded? In fact, your body shape may be related to enzymes. Japanese expert Takashi Tsurumi believes that enzymes are as important to the human body as proteins, carbohydrates and fats. If there is a shortage of them, not only will the immunity be easily reduced, but obesity may also be involved.

Japanese health expert Takashi Tsurumi pointed out in "The Key Secret to Staying Healthy: Enzymes" that enzymes are very important "catalysts" in the body. They will constantly repeat various chemical reactions, prompting more than 60 trillion cells to metabolize, allowing the body to maintain health and life.

Which of the three major decomposing enzymes should you supplement?

Once the body lacks enzymes, the metabolic rate is affected, which can easily lead to obesity or being too thin. So, if you want to save your figure and health, how can you supplement enzymes correctly? There are currently about 13,000 known enzymes in the body. Each enzyme is like a stubborn carpenter who can only do one thing and does its job faithfully. Among them, special attention should be paid to "amylase", "proteinase" and "lipolytic enzyme", which help to break down carbohydrates, proteins and fats respectively, improve the body's utilization efficiency, thereby increasing the metabolic rate and defeating obesity.

4 major body types recommend enzyme supplementation

As for which enzyme should I supplement first? The Japan Nature Beautist Association analyzed the eating habits of people of different body types, identified the types of enzymes that may be deficient, and then designed food enzyme intake methods for different body types, providing them as a reference for the general public:

People with mango body shape often have insufficient serotonin in their bodies due to genetics, and are prone to feeling uneasy, low mood, and depression. They like to eat sweets such as cakes and chocolates, starchy foods such as pasta and rice, and foods containing caffeine.

【Mango Size】

Characteristics and behaviors: They have a thick layer of body fat, a round shape, and are prone to accumulating subcutaneous fat. People with mango body shape often have insufficient serotonin in their bodies due to genetics, and are prone to feeling uneasy, low mood, and depression. They like to eat sweets such as cakes and chocolates, starchy foods such as pasta and rice, and foods containing caffeine. Moreover, they often feel tired easily and have symptoms such as poor blood circulation and abnormal blood sugar.

Enzyme deficiency: Insufficient carbohydrate-degrading enzyme.

Recommended diet: It is recommended to adopt a "high protein + low sugar" diet pattern, reduce the intake of carbohydrates and sugar, and eat more high-protein foods. You can add more fruits, eggs, pork, seaweed, onions, leeks and yams to your daily diet.

[Pear shape]

Characteristics and behaviors: A pear-shaped body is one that tends to accumulate fat in the lower body, including around the abdomen, waist, and hips. Women may suffer from edema due to the influence of female hormones and are also prone to cellulite. People with this body type usually like to eat "fat + sugar (starch)", and they often accept spicy food, creamy food with high fat content, junk food, snacks or food with high salt content, etc. In addition to edema, pear-shaped people also often have problems with reduced thyroid and liver function, and premenstrual syndrome.

Enzyme deficiency: Insufficient lipolysis enzymes.

Recommended diet: Although the pear-shaped body is caused by insufficient fat-decomposing enzymes, excessive fat blocking will make the body uncomfortable. Therefore, it is recommended to give priority to consuming better quality fats and proteins, or actively consume potassium that can excrete salt from the body. Common foods include: celery, cucumber, seaweed, avocado, pumpkin, natto, red beans, sardines and saury, which are all good choices.

【Apple body shape】

Characteristics and behaviors: Upper body obesity, belly looks like a basketball, visceral fat is thicker than subcutaneous fat. People with an apple-shaped body usually follow a "high-protein + high-fat" diet, and prefer foods such as beef, bacon, fish, fried foods, alcohol, cheese, peanuts and heavy flavors. This group is at high risk for almost all civilization diseases and is constantly threatened by diseases such as arteriosclerosis, hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, gout, osteoporosis and kidney disease.

Enzyme deficiency: proteolytic enzyme.

Recommended diet: It is recommended to adopt a "low-fat + high-quality protein" diet pattern, and consume more foods rich in protein-degrading enzymes and dietary fiber, such as pineapples, papayas, apples, carrots, seaweed and garlic.

【Banana Body Shape】

Characteristics and behaviors: Bananas have a long and thin appearance. People with this body shape are envied because they can maintain a standard weight without much effort. However, their bodies actually burn excess fat and calories more slowly, and they are prone to low stress resistance, fatigue, cellulite in women, chronic allergies, and bronchial and intestinal problems. This type of person may be allergic to milk, but prefers to eat sweets such as milk, yogurt, cheese, chocolate, and starchy foods, and usually tends to have a light taste.

Lack of enzymes: There is a lack of enzymes that break down most nutrients, resulting in poor digestion ability. Moreover, they lack lactase and are unable to digest milk.

Recommended diet: It is recommended to consume high-quality protein + carotene or polyphenols, as well as antioxidant nutrients. Eat more fruits rich in proteolytic enzymes and avoid dairy products. Pineapple, cantaloupe, kiwi fruit, banana, eggs, sesame, etc. are all foods that can be given priority or increased as choices.
