"Enzymes are substances that make life possible; they are the spark of life. No mineral, vitamin or hormone can do any work without enzymes".
- Dr. Edward Howell, MD
Pioneer of Enzyme Therapy

Genuine N*Zimes is the original line of enzyme based nutritional supplements developed by enzyme research pioneer Dr. Edward Howell. His book, Enzyme Nutrition – The Food Enzyme Concept is considered by many to be the definitive work on the subject.

Dr. Howell’s premise, The Enzyme Nutrition Axiom, succinctly explains the modern concept of enzyme therapy: "The length of life is inversely proportional to the rate of exhaustion of the enzyme potential of an organism. The increased use of food enzymes promotes a decreased rate of exhaustion of the enzyme potential".

Enzymes, Inc. was founded to distribute products manufactured by Dr. Howell’s National Enzyme Company. We are proud of our direct connection to Dr. Howell’s original research and honored to continue distribution of his original digestive enzyme formulas.

While enzyme supplements have grown in potency, the Genuine N*Zimes lines of powdered and encapsulated enzyme supplements remain effective tools in obtaining better health through improved digestion.
