Do enzyme supplements cause the body to stop producing its own enzymes? Will I become dependent on enzyme supplements?
No. Enzyme supplements support normal organ functions without replacing their roles or effectiveness. However, these supplemental enzymes may relieve stress, thus reducing the load of output or energy used by these organs. Supplemental enzymes do not directly control organ function or productivity. There is no known upper limit to the amount of supplemental enzymes that can be consumed. The reason for this is that the body has 1-100 trillion cells. Any one of those cells could be using thousands of different enzymes every second. This allows huge quantities to be used by the body without risk of dependency or overdosing.
