    The word "enzyme" comes from Japan, and it actually means "enzyme"Because it claims to have a variety of benefits, such as weight loss, digestion, many people also try to make their own enzymes at homeHowever, eating homemade enzymes does not do much good, but may increase the security risksusceptible to contaminationHomemade "fruit enzymes" use natural fermentation, a process similar to home-brewed wine, except that fruits used for fermentation are not limited to grapesFruits are highly susceptible to bacteria (such as fungi) during fermentation, so the "fruit enzymes" produced at home may be "water from fruit mold"nitrites and methanolIt is well known that foods such as pickles contain a lot of nitritesThe use of naturally fermented fruit enzymes, because the bacteria are not easy to control, often produce more nitrites, due to process restrictions, may also produce more methanolhigh sugar contentWhen making "fruit enzymes" you often need to add a lot of sugar, sugar content is usually more than 10%, drinking too much will increase sugar intakeIf there are people in the family who are obese, diabetes and so on, this "enzyme" is not suitable for them to drink"fruit enzyme" actually refers to the fruit fermentation after the mixture, the ingredients are mainly water, sugar and fructose, as well as a small amount of enzymes, with the original "enzyme" is already a world of differenceAnd it claims that weight loss, digestive benefits and enzymes have no real relationship, there is time to make their own enzymes as well as eat a good fruitfruit enzymecan can lose weight detox? Don't be fooled by the advertisement!Because fermentation is a very serious matter, such as homemade kimchi, it seems simple, but without skill, it is difficult to succeedThat's why some people make kimchi delicious, while some people make kimchi either bad or badThe same is true of homemade fruit enzymes, which are not well controlled by sanitary conditions and are highly susceptible to contamination by bacteria, Professor Han said, the fermentation process is very wonderful, fermentation process will produce a lot of complex components, some of which are toxic substances, but these toxic substances are generally increased and then reduced, and eventually naturally reach a harmless, harmonious state, if the number of fermentation days is insufficient, toxic substances such as nitrites can not be fully degraded, there are high health risksTherefore, inexperienced people, it is not recommended to easily try homemade fermented food
