Wang and colleagues published their study in International Journal of
Food Science and Technology («Effect of

New
enzyme technologies for texture modification and improved digestibility of
food components, including the development of new
enzymes, rational computational design and modelling
enzyme activity and its impact on gut health.
Sprouting seeds and nuts turns the little darlings into living
foods, kick - starting
enzyme activity that awakens the seed or nut in prep for growth, and increases mineral and protein content by a substantial margin.
The result points the way for exploiting these
enzyme traps in
food processing, decontamination, biosensor design and any other pursuit that requires controlling catalysts and sustaining their
activity.
Sprouting begins germination, which increases the enzymatic
activity in
foods and inactivates substances called
enzyme inhibitors.1 These
enzyme inhibitors prevent the activation of the
enzymes present in the
food and, therefore, may hinder optimal digestion and absorption.
This action is lost, however, when
foods are cooked or heat processed destroying the natural catalytic
activity of
food digestive
enzymes.
I don't see any evidence presented here that shows eating these
foods actually creates a change in
enzyme activity.
Dairy, meat, eggs, and junk
foods all raise the
activity of the TOR
enzyme, which appears to be linked to obesity risk.
Magnesium is responsible for the
activity of 700 - 800
enzyme systems that make energy, digest
food, support the adrenal glands, detoxify heavy metals, relax your muscles and nerves and help you sleep well at night.
When it comes to acne, the biggest contributors to raising the
activity of the TORC1
enzyme, which contributes to acne, include meat, dairy, egg protein, and other processed / junk
foods.
B - Complex providing all eight necessary B vitamins; are extremely involved in
enzyme activity and are needed for converting
food into energy.
All of the above
foods either lower
enzyme activity during phase 1 and phase 2 detox (thus interrupting the liver's ability to transform toxins into nontoxic metabolites) or they contribute to decreased absorption of the nutrients your liver needs in order to do its job.
If the proteolytic
enzyme is in the digestive system at the same time as
food is consumed, it will help to break down the consumed protein and will be considered to have digestive
enzyme activity.
The negative effects seem to lie in the capacity of some
foods / nutrients to stimulate proliferative pathways that in turn stimulate development of acne — suspect
foods include those with a high glycaemic load and milk.11, 43, 44 Other evidence comes from several studies reporting that the prevalence of acne varies significantly between different populations and is substantially lower in non-Westernized populations that follow traditional diets, 45 a common factor among these traditional diets being a low glycaemic load.46 Various studies have provided evidence that high - glycaemic - load diets are implicated in the aetiology of acne through their capacity to stimulate insulin, androgen bioavailability and insulin - like growth factor - 1 (IGF - 1)
activity, whereas the beneficial effects of low - glycaemic - load diets, apart from weight and blood glucose levels, also include improved skin quality.44 The clinical and experimental evidence does in fact suggest ways in which insulin can increase androgen production and affect via induction of steroidogenic
enzymes, 47 the secretion by the pituitary gland of gonadotropin - releasing hormone and the production of sex hormone - binding globulin.48 Insulin is also able to reduce serum levels of IGF - binding protein - 1 increasing the effect of IGF - 1.49 These insulin - mediated actions can therefore influence diverse factors that underlie the development of acne such as:
