Why are enzymes better? Enzymes are naturally occurring proteins that increase the rate of chemical reactions. They are natural defenses against harmful microbes. They can be found in many places and have very specific jobs. Enzymes won’t irritate a pet’s sensitive or raw skin are very safe, non toxic for pets, people and the environment and most importantly, bacteria won’t develop resistance against enzymes, so they are always efficient. The patented LP3 Enzyme System in ZYMOX® is a combination of enzymes with very specific jobs which work synergistically to inhibit, split and destroy the offending bacteria, fungi and even some viruses making the combination antibacterial as well as antifungal. The enzymes only target the invading single-celled organisms, healthy cells are unaffected.
