Genetic Predisposition to Enzyme Insufficiencies

A great deal of evidence has surfaced to support the fact that enzyme potential is passed on to future generations. A most convincing work was completed by Dr. Henry Pottenger, who carried out a very comprehensive study of dietary effects on cat physiology. Dr. Pottenger scientifically grouped cats and regulated their diets: one group being fed only raw (enzyme rich) foods, another group only cooked (enzyme void) foods. What resulted can be seen as conclusive evidence that enzyme potential is passed on to future generations. While the enzyme rich fed animals remained stable and healthy, the enzyme void fed animals rapidly deteriorated and carried the deterioration into the genetic structure of their offspring. The cats that were fed enzyme void foods also suffered many of the same diseases that are seen in human population today. Later generations even lost the ability to perpetuate the species, while the animals fed raw foods displayed vigorous vitality with each new generation. The practice of researching family background for genetic disease traits is well accepted by the medical establishment. This concept also applies to traits of vitality and longevity, as Pottenger's cat studies suggest. The link between enzyme potential and vibrant health stands on firm scientific ground and without doubt, can be passed on in the organ reserve of the offspring.
