Another enzyme is P4D1, isolated in a laboratory in California in the 1980's in Barley juice. P4D1 was found to do two things in the human body. It is the first known substance to actually stimulate repair of the DMA molecule. It is possible that disease cells can be repaired with P4D1 so that when they reproduce they will actually produce good cells. P4D1 has also been shown in laboratory tests to eat the protein sheath off a cancer cell so that the white blood cells can attack and destroy them.
Cytochrome oxidase is one of the enzymes essential for cell metabolism.
In the body there are two forms of fat-brown fat, which contains cytochrome oxidase and is metabolically active, and white fat, which doesn't and isn't. White fat just lies around being ugly. Many have claimed that regular supplementation with green barley juice stimulates weight loss, which is likely due to the enhancement of the cytochrome oxidase enzyme system. Normal metabolic activity throws off dangerous superoxide free radicals, which are oxygen molecules with an unpaired electron. Superoxide free radicals damage the cell walls and are thought to be a primary culprit in aging and many diseases, including cancer.
