Now, this information is very, very important if you are on medications. If you know of someone on

medications, send them this video because I'm going to show you how to greatly reduce the side

effects for medication. Now, one primary reason why a lot of people have side effects from medication

has to do with something in your liver. It's a certain group of enzymes that help

break down certain medications and toxins as well. And that that enzyme system is not working.

Not only are you going to experience more side effects, but the medication could also not be as effective as it should.

Now, of course, you already know this, but I'm all about giving people alternatives to medication.

But there's certain people that need to be on medication, and it's a really good thing to minimize

the side effects. And then at the end of this, I'm going to

give you a download that you can give your medical doctor to help them look at a potential

DNA problem that you might have that can greatly alter the type of medications that you're given.

And so I will talk about that at the end.

But let's first just talk about what is an enzyme.

An enzyme is a protein that speeds up the chemical reaction in your body millions of times

faster than if that enzyme wasn't working.

The great majority of medications work by inhibiting

certain enzymes. For example, like an ACE inhibitor, which inhibits this ACE enzyme

that affects the blood pressure, like aspirin inhibits something called Cox enzymes that relate to inflammation. And so enzymes

speed up the reaction. But what's really interesting about enzymes is they don't seem to use

their own energy in this work that they do. In other words, they can keep being recycled and they seem to be very magical

in that way. The other thing about enzymes in order to make them work is they need helper

molecules. They need what's called cofactors or co-enzymes. And those are basically vitamins and minerals. And so now you know very simply
