yes, enzymes are important. Why are we not making them? This would be the greater question to me.
All bacteria produce enzymes... essentially all living things "should" be able to manufacture their enzymes with the assistance of our symbiotic friends, bacteria, protozoa, etc.
pick a mineral, match it with a protein... and find the enzyme...
"Humans and animals require selenium for the function of a number of selenium-dependent enzymes, also known as selenoproteins."

We likely get the proteins, though they are also likely poor quality these days... all we need is the mineral and the bacteria/yeasts/protozoa.

Their is a yin and yang to all of this...
In the livestock industry, they feed yeast cultures to enable/enhance enzyme growth. If one thinks about it, the yeast feeds the bacteria and the bacteria produces enzymes.
The yin yang thing... bacteria and yeasts keeping each other in check.
Might be why some people see such health benefit from nutritional yeasts.
Given that bit of information... would one think someone would become overrun with yeasts/fungi? Could it have something to do with antibiotic use both internally and externally, consumption of sterile foods, etc "killing" off our "required" bacteria?
I agree that we should strive for eating our foods within mere hours of harvest these days if at all possible, and then predominantly raw; dirt and all if you know your garden. It is essential these days to restore what we have lost through living "better lives through chemistry"...
Barring that, dried foods and frozen within hours of harvest are most likely best, IF the product is not picked too green.
