41. Enzymes 101: Why Your Body Needs Them: Interview with Wade Lightheart


Listen Later

Most of us think about how many calories are in food, whether it's gluten free or vegetarian, but how many of us actually think about how well our food is being absorbed?

In this episode of The Knowledge and Mileage Podcast, Kris sits down with Wade Lightheart, a 3-time all natural national bodybuilding champion, advisor to the American Anti-Cancer Institute, and Director of Education at BiOptimizers Nutrition, to talk about the importance of enzymes.

Enzymes are the workhorses of digestion. Everything from thinking to blinking requires enzymes. They break your food down into usable macro and micronutrients. By improving digestion your body has more resources to allocate for mental and cognitive function.

Tune in to hear about Wade's journey and what led him to being a champion of enzymes.
