Why do patients with McArdle's Disease experience muscle cramps and fatigue?

Why do I need digestive enzyme supplements?

digestive enzymes: food enzyme supplements support nutrition...
Raw food contains the enzymes needed to digest it. However, most of us don’t live on a raw food diet. When we cook our food, the enzymes in the food are destroyed and our body has to make them in order to digest our food. This puts stress on our system especially since people eat more processed foods and meals higher in calories and fat. Digestive enzyme supplements help you digest your meals more efficiently and deliver the nutrients from your food to your body.
