Publisher's summary

In The Enzyme Factor, Dr. Hiromi Shinya presents his research, grounded in his 45 years of medical practice in the United States and Japan. This research supports the idea of a miracle enzyme out of which all the enzymes the body needs are produced. He suggests cancer and other diseases occur when this key enzyme is depleted and cannot properly do its job. In this book he clearly shows how what we eat affects that key. Dr. Shinya's science is clearly explained and easy to understand. The suggestions for diet and lifestyle based on this science are simple and easy to follow. Even those who think they know everything about how to eat right will be surprised when they discover what is really healthy.

This simple health regime has led hundreds of his patients, many suffering from cancer and other life-threatening diseases, to perfect health.

Inside The Enzyme Factor you will discover:

  • How to look younger and delay aging
  • How to live strengthen your body's natural defenses.
  • How to become a healthy 100 year old
  • Misconceptions with many dietary trends
  • What your intestinal traits can teach you about your health
  • Why drinking milk will cause osteoporosis
  • How your body will become oxidized if you eat oxidized foods
  • Why eating the meat of animals that have a higher body temperature than humans pollutes the blood
  • The inseparable relationship between the human body and the land
  • How love activates the immune system

This is a new, important, and affordable approach to health care in America by the world's leading gastroenterologist, and inventor of colonoscopic surgery, who has spent his life in empirical research on the subject of human digestion. If we follow Dr. Shinya's health prescription we will lose weight, be fit, save money, and enjoy a long and healthy life.

Informative health gut book

Loved the information about gut health and enzymes. He even discussed how certain water is important and why. Wasn't drawn out and long it was just right length.
I understand now how important enzymes are to our body.

influenced by his own culture

Ironically he attempts to tell us that our cultures diet is wrong but doesn't see the harm in his diet which was influenced by his Japanese culture. I wish he would have avoided his source enzyme theory as fact. If you remove those two fallacious ideals it's a great book. the natural human dies is the same as a chimpanzee and he can't connect that idea... so close but yet so blinded by his own ideals.

The simple and concise information in this book has been a game changer and a life saver for me. This God Send of a gem has helped me to finally understand and implement effective diet and lifestyle choices. My overall well being and zeal for life has been catapulted beyond the cosmos and I am eternally grateful for this magnificent work of Dr. Shina's. Thanks Doc!

Narrator Miss Reads at times

Any additional comments?

At time the narrator missed read the book. Added in words not written, made “ do not” to don’t etc. and one time forgot the word “not” which changed the whole meaning of text. I am amazed it got the approval from the editors. Sloppy at best. Had I not had the text as well would not have known this. Pay better attention next time.
