Enzymes are special proteins that help speed up chemical reactions in our bodies. They can be affected a lot by things like pH (which measures how acidic or basic something is) and temperature.

1. How pH Affects Enzymes:

• Each enzyme works best within a certain pH range.
• If the pH changes too much, the enzyme can lose its shape and stop working properly.
• For example, the enzyme pepsin works best in very acidic conditions. If the pH changes, it may not work well or at all.

2. How Temperature Affects Enzymes:

• Enzymes usually work faster when it's warmer, but only up to a point.
• If it gets too hot, the enzyme can get damaged and stop working.
• For most human enzymes, the best temperature is about 37°C (which is close to our normal body temperature). If it goes much higher, it can cause lasting harm.

3. Challenges with Enzyme Treatments:

• Because our bodies have different conditions, it can be hard to use enzymes as treatments.
• To solve this, scientists are designing experiments carefully and creating new versions of enzymes that can work better in different situations.
• Understanding how pH and temperature affect enzymes is really important when using them in medicine.
