Multi-enzyme Protect
Introducing Multi-Enzymes
Life could not exist without enzymes as they promote chemical reaction, cellular repair and growth. There have to date been over 2,700 enzymes that have been identified but many more remain to be discovered; they work in all areas and systems of the body.
One of the most important functions of vitamins and minerals is to provide co-enzymes; these in turn are the building blocks of enzymes. Often the symptoms of vitamin or mineral deficiency can be understood as enzyme deficiency, please see the excellent article Enzyme Therapy. There are three major groups of biological enzymes: (1) Food Enzymes, (2) Digestive Enzymes and (3) Metabolic Enzymes. In the past, the therapeutic use of enzymes has largely focused on the use of digestive enzymes; these aid digestion of food but also mop up and dissolve dead material such as proteins and fats that accumulate in the body, in the tissues, organs, arteries and all blood vessels. Research has shown that combining a range of enzymes with different actions, we can achieve greater success.

Their Primary Functions (see more general discussions of enzyme therapy below)
Serrapeptase is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the micro-organism, Serratia E15. Histologic studies have revealed the powerful anti-inflammatory effects of this naturally occurring enzyme. Has had wide clinical use, spanning over 30 years throughout Europe and Asia. Full article HERE
Nattokinase is a very potent fibrinolytic (breaks down fibrin, a blood clotting protein) enzyme, which has shown remarkable ability to affect blood clotting and a possible ability to regulate and activate various other metabolic enzymes.
Protease is responsible for digesting proteins in your food. Proteins are probably one of the most difficult substances to metabolize. Because of this, protease is considered to be the most important plant based digestive enzyme that we have. If the digestive process is incomplete, undigested protein can wind up in your circulatory system. When you take protease in higher quantities, it can also help to clean up your body by removing the unwanted protein from your circulatory system and all other tissues and organs of the body.
Lipase is responsible for digesting fats in food. When taken in higher quantities it will also find its way into the blood stream and help to remove excess fatty deposits from the inside of your veins and arteries. When this occurs, the arteries and veins are more open and allow the blood to flow more smoothly throughout your body. It is well understood that clogged arteries cause a rise in blood pressure, and that this in turn leads to heart problems. Using extra lipase during the pre-digestive phase can help with overall fat control both in the stomach and in the arteries of your body. Additional lipase can also be helpful in a weight management program, because it converts fat to energy instead of allowing it to be stored in your body.
Amylase is the second most important plant based digestive enzyme that we have. Amylase is responsible for digesting carbohydrates in food. Because of this, it could be considered a natural antihistamine. Incomplete digestion of carbohydrates has been linked to blood sugar imbalances, allergies, and asthma. Amylase is also very effective in helping to relieve the symptoms of allergic reactions to such things as insect bites, pollen irritation, or contact with poison oak, poison ivy, or sumac. A possible reason why some people appear to be more immune to these poisons is because of a higher amount of amylase within their bodies.
Cellulase is responsible for breaking down fibre. It is also an excellent antioxidant because it binds to heavy metals and other toxins and carries them out of your body.
Lactase is responsible for digesting the milk sugar found in dairy products. Supplementing the diet with Lactase Enzyme makes milk products more readily digestible, helping to relieve discomfort caused by lactose intolerance.
Pectinase breaks down carbohydrates such as pectin (found in many plants); Pectinases are produced during the natural ripening process of some fruits to soften cell walls.
Alpha Galactosidase is derived from the fungus Aspergillus Niger, this enzyme hydrolyzes residues from saccharides which pass unabsorbed into the large intestine and can cause bloating, and general discomfort
Invertase exhibits relatively high activity over a broad range of pH hydrolyzes sucrose and is often lacking in those with a weak digestion
Malt Diastase hydrolyzes amylose and other polysaccharides, studies have shown it is useful for digestive support and general nutritional support, also breaks down unused glycogen in muscle tissue.
The other ingredients – Seagreens, Rosehip, Hawthorn, Sodium Ascorbate and Alpha Lipoic Acid ensure a balanced formula and increase the body’s ability to make maximum use of the enzymes. The Vitamin C and bioflavonoids act as anti-oxidants and to help to strengthen the collagen of the blood vessels, this is important as Multi-Enzyme Protect will clear out debris from the blood vessels. Vitamin C deficiency as well as silica deficiency renders the blood vessels weak, and liable to haemorrhage or rupture, especially as we age, so we need to protect them with these nutrients. Please note Organic Silicon, is complementary to this product especially as concerning collagen of blood vessels support.
There is a very simple rule to follow with plant based digestive enzyme products - MORE IS BETTER AND A LOT MORE IS A LOT BETTER! The higher the activity level of the ingredients the better the product. Unlike most other nutritional ingredients that are measured by weight, the correct labelling for enzymes is in activity units.
The Health Benefits of Enzyme Therapy
Raw food contains enzymes required to help break down, assimilate and deliver the contents of the food we eat. When we cook food we ‘kill’ the sensitive ‘live’ enzymes. The only way we can then digest and absorb the food we eat is to produce our own enzymes instead (although bacteria do have a role lower down in the gut to help break down food and make it easier to assimilate). The ability to do this varies with each individual and also reduces with age. One of the single biggest factors in all chronic (long term) disease is the failure to produce the necessary enzymes required to replace those we lose by cooking food. The failure to produce sufficient protein digesting enzymes from the pancreas has been implicated as one of the major causes of cancer. Many naturopaths and those educated in the natural healing arts, recognise that the build up of muco-protein, i.e. mucus/catarrh in the system is a contributory factor in most chronic disease. The reason for this build up is a failure to sufficiently break down food especially the protein content. A raw food diet, or failing that the consumption of digestive enzymes with food can prevent this happening.
It has been discovered in many clinical studies and on a personal experience basis by many individuals and therapists, that taking enzymes can often reduce or even eliminate the very diseases that have developed over years of cooked food consumption. In this situation, enzymes should be taken with food to help the digestion of that meal and also on an empty stomach / in-between meals to retain their potency, enter the blood stream and to be delivered around the body to gradually break down the toxic waste that has built up from years of enzyme insufficiency.
Auto-immune disorders can be understood as one aspect of chronic enzyme deficiency, and its treatment therefore is considerably, sometimes dramatically helped by the use of enzyme supplementation. The mechanisms involved are quite well understood. An antigen, such as a toxic material or a virus, or parasite etc is found by an anti-body and they merge to form a linked pair. This pair is normally consumed by enzymes secreted from an immune cell called a macrophage. Insufficient enzyme availability causes the macrophage and the antigen and anti-body to form a complex called an immune complex. If this process continues for an appropriate length of time these immune complexes are stored in the tissues. These are pathological (toxic and disrupting to healthy metabolism). Eventually the ‘second immune system’ or the complement immune system is activated to try to eliminate the immune complex, but since the immune complexes are trapped in tissue specific to the disease involved e.g. intestine, Crohn’s, joints, R.A. Brain/myelin sheaf the tissues themselves are attacked and this is the immediate reason for unresolved inflammation and destruction of tissue. It is not surprising in the light of these facts that - The over activity of the immune system can be ameliorated or in some cases resolved completely by the use of sufficient quantity of enzymes over sufficient period of time.
Enzymes are synergistic; in nature enzymes do not exist singly, rather many occur together in foods, the presence of one enzyme will often potentate the effect of another one in a mutual way, for example, enzyme 1 may have a immune complex or virus dissolving power of 3, and enzyme 2 may have also a dissolving factor of the same i.e. 3, but both together can have a multiplication effect e.g. by the power of 9, rather than a simple addition. Since there are many enzymes that are mutually supportive and also non-toxic, supplementation with the widest possible mixture of enzymes ensures the greatest health benefits. (Taking into account our knowledge at this point in time, in prioritising certain enzymes, e.g. the proteolytic or protein dissolving enzymes, and provided that a good dosage / enzyme activity units are present of the most known, relevant enzymes). By using this synergy we are able to be realistically optimistic about a good therapeutic outcome weather it be in the resolution of a serious disease or in deep cleansing, e.g. helping to off set general organ and tissue fibrosis, circulatory inhibition due to clogging and even things like cataracts as we age. Indeed, a fair part of the aging process is merely the increasing ravages of enzyme deficiency and the long term accumulation of dead and fibrous tissue that would not have occurred if we had remained on a raw food diet for most of out life.
Raw foods are generally easier to digest than cooked food with some exceptions. It is difficult to digest large amounts of raw vegetables due to the amount of cellulose present, cellulase is an enzyme that can help cellulose digestion, but only to a limited degree, hence the importance of juicing vegetables rather than simply eating raw. Grains are also difficult to digest raw. The food items that we evolved to eat are actually still the most easy to digest and assimilate; the human system in terms of digestive structure and ability has changed little over millions of years, so the healthiest tribes and groups of people all around the planet are those that consume a diet of mainly raw food. One explanation for the obvious question “why does man cook food” is as follows. Man was originally a hunter gatherer, in this situation grains were rare, some roots and root vegetables were eaten occasionally, green leaves of various types more frequently, fruit at various times depending on climate, and animal meats. Fire was only used occasionally to cook food, all other animals eat their food raw, and it has shown by many researchers (whether one likes the idea or not), that raw meat, raw fish and raw eggs are far easier and more efficiently digested than cooked. The fact that man always cooked meat is an unfortunate myth. The problem began as man became more populace in certain areas, could not find enough hunter-gatherer food, and began to live in fixed locations. The discovery that grain could be grown and eaten if cooked may also be a main factor that led to the introduction of cooking.
The Wider Benefits of Multi-Enzyme Therapy
Proteolytic enzymes are essential regulators and modulators of the inflammatory response. Any disorder ending in ‘itis’ can be helped and most usually is with Multi-Enzymes, these include chronic bronchitis, sinusitis, urinary tract infections prostatitis, cystitis and pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) as well as providing relief for some of the most painful cases of ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, and Multiple Sclerosis. Women will be happy to know that they will also be able to get relief from the painful disorder of fibrocystic breast disease with the aid of enzymes. They can help reduce heart disease and circulatory disorders
Multi-enzyme therapy can be, and has been successfully used in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and Osteoarthritis, and all auto-immune disorders can be potentially helped as Multi-enzymes help to re-balance and strengthen the immune system, by overcoming immune complexes as discussed, but also by helping in the production of T cells and natural ‘killer-cells’ (cancer). For the treatment of Arthritis, Boron is especially helpful; please see our article on the treatment of arthritis).
Multi-Enzyme therapy for Lupus, Cancer & viral diseases (activates immune response)
Multi-enzymes hinder pain and inflammatory reactions in a number of ways.
· Remove “fibrin,” the clotting material that prolongs inflammation (especially important in helping circulatory disorders)
· Break down proteins in the blood that cause inflammation by helping their removal through the blood and lymphatic systems.
· Remove chronic inflammations, one of the main causes of arthritis.
· Eliminate edema fluid retention in areas of inflammation.
Enzymes can have a powerful effect on helping to eliminate harmful bacteria and virus by;
· general immune support as discussed in the use of systemic enzymes in cancer support
· enzymes can directly help to dissolve and digest the outer coating of anaerobic bacteria or virus, leaving them to be mopped up by the immune macrophages.
E.G. Kleine (1990) found that Herpes Zoster responds well to Systemic enzyme therapy.
Conventional treatments of inflammatory diseases use drugs that unlike Multi-enzymes, can cause harmful side effects and do not remove the cause of the problem, largely enzyme deficiency, and unlike Multi-enzymes, such treatments do not improve immune system health. Multi-enzymes not only remove inflammation they allow the healing phase to proceed once the true cause of the chronic inflammation is resolved. Enzyme therapy has long been part of the methods of treatment of traditional medicine. Meanwhile, systemic therapy with proteolytic enzymes has become an important method of treatment in natural medicine. There is hardly any regulatory system in our body which does not depend on enzymes. Enzymes control coagulation and fibrinolysis, inflammation and complement activity, phagocytosis, wound healing and tissue regeneration as well as the specific and nonspecific defense systems. Here the enzymes function as biocatalysts. The idea of supporting the weakened or stressed human body in fighting disease by administering enzymes seems very reasonable. After all, the structures and various functions of some 2700 enzymes have already been discovered in the human organism.
The most important enzymes used in therapy are hydrolases, which split ester, peptide and glycoside bonds by introducing a water molecule. The tasks and goals of enzyme therapy are manifold. Enzymes are used to support the body in stress situations, such as chronic or acute inflammations, digestive disorders, vascular or malignant diseases. A further field of application for enzymes is substitution in enzyme deficit disorders. The classical examples of this are pancreatic insufficiency or blood clotting disorders due to deficient clotting factors. Each enzyme has different effects. It is therefore reasonable to use combinations of enzymes to ensure a sufficiently broad spectrum of effects and via synergism for greater efficacy.
Enzymes promote the body's own regeneration processes. Certain proteolytic enzymes possess pronounced anti-inflammatory and anti-oedematous properties. They promote the breakdown of toxic metabolites and inflammatory products and thus contribute substantially to the detoxification of the human body. Simultaneously, the additional fibrinolytic activity of the enzymes and the "vessel-sealing" effect of rutin accelerates the blood flow. Together with the dissolution of fresh blood clots (microthrombi), this allows normalization of the microcirculation. This especially applies to the enzymes Serrapeptase and Nattokinase. Therefore, the inflammatory products that mediate pain are eliminated more quickly, the improved blood supply enhances local oxygenation, and tissue tension decreases in parallel, the Medical data is for information only. All of this provides some analgesic effect. In sharp contrast to the mechanisms of action of conventional non-steroidal and steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, systemic enzyme therapy thus does not block the natural healing processes of inflammation
Proteolytic Enzymes Bring Relief to Sufferers of Lupus
Ron Davis, M.D. has had excellent success bringing about complete remissions in patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Progressive Systemic Sclerosis. Dr. Davis’ method is available on the website, http://www.arthritistrust.org, under the same title, “Systemic Lupus Erythematosus and Progressive Systemic Sclerosis.” For our treatment protocol for Lupus please see our Lupus page. Enzymes help to dissolve circulating immune complexes and antibodies that cause the severe inflammation of Lupus. A 1996 study of Lupus patients demonstrated how clinical and laboratory immuno-inflammatory activity decreased more quickly when medical drugs were used in combination with Multi-enzymes. Enzymes may be particularly important for Lupus sufferers for another reason: they’ve been strongly shown to help prevent kidney disease and failure, both of which are commonly associated with Lupus.
Proteolytic Enzymes and Cancer
About 100 years ago, a British embryologist, John Beard, started the research concerning the use of protein digesting enzymes and the treatment of cancer. He had some successes using enzymes taken from the pancreas of young animals. He injected them into his patients and achieved some good results, but there were side effects from the immunological reactions to injecting components of raw pancreas into the blood stream. He was later followed by Kelly who treated thousands of cancer patients and claimed very high success rates.
Today, enzymes are produced by in large using bacteria, and their activity units are measured, so stronger and more effective enzyme blends are now available. Using large amounts of activity units of enzymes to treat advanced cancers requires clinical supervision, since the toxins released from the tumour break down, when there are large/many tumors present should only be achieved at the rate the system is able to detoxify them. For this reason we recommend a wider selection of remedies known to overcome some of the other causative aspects of cancer such as correcting cellular pH and overcoming oxygen deficiency at a cell level. These can systematically be overcome with the use of suitable nutritional remedies (Alka Vita, Germanium, and Live cell Immunocomplex) as discussed in our article: Cancer, Helping to win the Battle with Nutritional Therapy
Prof. Wolf wanted to continue the study of these wonderful biological agents, he noticed that by using purified mixtures of enzymes there were no risks of frequent allergic reactions. Each cancer cell has on the surface of its membrane, specific antigens. It is naturally ideal when the body can recognize these markers - by being released from the fibrin - because the cancer cell can be destroyed after this. Although the cancer cell is destroyed, however, the antigen remains. By means of a change in its membrane, the cancer cell can sometimes throw off its antigen. It seems that cancer cells do this, so that our defenses go in the wrong direction. Regrettably, this trick really works. If the number of formed immune complexes is kept within the normal limits and our defenses are all right, then our macrophages can embrace and dissolve these immune complexes. If the number of immune complexes is superior to the strength of the macrophages, then some immune complexes remain not dissolved in the blood, as well as in the lymph. By means of a complicated mechanism - we talk about activation and aggregation of thrombocytes - it promotes a greater formation of fibrin, by depositing the un-dissolved immune complexes in the tissue. This normally diminishes the body’s defenses, and this is especially dangerous in the cancer situation.
The immune complexes can weaken the body's defenses in another way. Too many immune complexes inhibit the activity of the macrophages, which are the main destroyers of the cancer cells. Their capacity to destroy and to clean out the system is paralyzed. Thus cancer cells can grow without being bothered by macrophages. What the enzymes do to help, is that they discover the receptors. Enzymes also facilitate the reaction of recognition. Another important action of the enzymes is to improve immunity, which is done by breaking the circulating immune complexes, by activating the natural killer cells and the T-cells, and also by inducing mediators and cytokines, such as TNF, Tumor Necrosis Factor. b
Enzymes have the ability to reduce the thick fibrin layer which is abnormally 15 times thicker than normal. By reducing this fibrin layer the stickiness of the cancer cells is also diminished, and by this means we can prevent metastasis.
The world-famous professor and doctor from Vienna, Dr. Wrba, states that enzymes are a new approach to cancer treatment. There are two main factors in the treatment of cancer cells (1) defense of the host and (2) virulence of the cancer cells. As has been already said, systemic enzyme therapy increases the defense mechanism, that is, improves the recognition reaction of the cancer cells, plus lowers its virulence. In doing so, Wrba feels that this action causes modulation of the cell membrane, uncovers the cell surface and receptors, improves immunity, facilitates the recognition reaction and reduces the stickiness of the tumor cells.
The Enzyme of Enzymes – Nattokinase By Dr. Nicholas Calvino
Recently a new enzyme with potent fibrinolytic activity, that rivals pharmaceutical agents, has been discovered and shows great potential in providing support for hypercoagulative states and in supporting the activation of many of the bodies 3,000 endogenous enzymes. This all natural enzyme, Nattokinase, is derived from fermented soy and the bacteria Bacillus natto. Already, backed by strong and novel research, Nattokinase shows promise in supporting areas such as cardiovascular disease, stroke, angina, venous stasis, thrombosis, emboli, atherosclerosis, Fibromyalgia/chronic Fatigue, claudication, retinal pathology, hemorrhoid, varicose veins, soft tissue rheumatisms, muscle spasm, poor healing, chronic inflammation and pain, peripheral vascular disease, hypertension, tissue oxygen deprivation, infertility, and other gynecology conditions (e.g. endometriosis, uterine fibroids).
There are three major groups of biological enzymes: (1) Food Enzymes, (2) Digestive Enzymes and (3) Metabolic Enzymes. In the past, the therapeutic use of enzymes has largely focused on the use of digestive enzymes. Digestive enzymes can be directly beneficial because they assist in digestion, help regulate immune responses in the intestinal tract, and relieve the body of its relative requirement of digestive enzyme production, allowing for biological energy and resources to be further allocated to the production of metabolic enzymes, indirectly. Recently, however, a new enzyme has been isolated from a traditional fermented Japanese food (although it is consumed by other cultures in the same or similar forms), that appears to have metabolic effects and to work directly in concert with the metabolic enzymes. This means that it will complement the somewhat different digestive enzymes.
The name of this new enzyme is Nattokinase (meaning the enzyme from Natto) and has been called, “The Enzyme of Enzymes” by its discoverer, Dr. Hiroyuki Sumi. Natto has been used in Japanese culture for over 1000 years for its popular taste and as a folk remedy for heart and vascular diseases, and now we know why: it contains Nattokinase, a very potent fibrinolytic (breaks down fibrin, a blood clotting protein) enzyme, which has shown remarkable ability to affect blood clotting and a possible ability to regulate and activate various other metabolic enzymes. Natto is produced by a fermentation process by adding Bacillus natto, a beneficial bacterium, to boiled soybeans. The resulting nattokinase enzyme, is produced when Bacillus natto acts on the soybeans. Nattokinase has been the subject of 17 studies, including two small human trials. While other soy foods contain enzymes, it is only the natto preparation that contains the specific nattokinase enzyme.
Nattokinase’s Affect on Fibrin
Fibrin is a protein that when activated forms fibrinogen, which is responsible for blood clotting. This is an important and protective mechanism that protects the body from excessive bleeding, say, when you cut yourself. However, in many instances, this process becomes over-activated or becomes “stuck” in high gear. This irregular clotting has been implicated in a variety of serious health conditions, namely, cardiovascular disease. The magnificent thing about Nattokinase is that it appears to have many, if not most, of the benefits of pharmaceutical agents designed to regulate blood clotting (e.g. Warfarin, Heparin, t-PA, Urokinase, etc), without any of the side effects of these medications. Furthermore, while these medications have to be injected and only provide a very brief time of benefit (a few hours), Nattokinase is effective when taken orally and its benefits linger many times longer. Standard doses of Nattokinase vary from 250-1,000 mg and positive effects can be seen with as little as 50 mg.
Blood clots form when strands of protein called fibrin accumulate in a blood vessel. In the heart, blood clots cause blockage of blood flow to muscle tissue. If blood flow is blocked, the oxygen supply to that tissue is cut off and it eventually dies. This can result in angina and heart attacks. Clots in chambers of the heart can mobilize to the brain. In the brain, blood clots also block blood and oxygen from reaching necessary areas, which can result in senility and/or stroke. Fibrinolytic enzymes are normally generated in the cells of the blood vessels. As the body ages, production of these enzymes begins to decline, making blood more prone to coagulation. Since these cells exist throughout the body, such as in the arteries, veins and lymphatic system, poor production of thrombolytic enzymes can lead to the development of clotting prone conditions virtually anywhere in the body.
Researchers from Biotechnology Research Laboratories and JCR Pharmaceuticals Co. of Kobe, Japan, tested Nattokinase’s ability to dissolve a thrombus in the carotid arteries of rats. Animals treated with Nattokinase regained 62 percent of blood flow, whereas those treated with plasmin regained just 15.8 percent of blood flow. Researchers from JCR Pharmaceuticals, Oklahoma State University, and Miyazaki Medical College tested nattokinase on 12 healthy Japanese volunteers (6 men and 6 women, between the ages of 21 and 55). They gave the volunteers 200 grams of natto (the food) before breakfast, and then tracked fibrinolytic activity through a series of blood plasma tests. The tests indicated that the natto generated a heightened ability to dissolve blood clots: On average, the volunteers’ ELT (a measure of how long it takes to dissolve a blood clot) dropped by 48 percent within two hours of treatment, and volunteers retained an enhanced ability to dissolve blood clots for 2 to 8 hours. As a control, researchers later fed the same amount of boiled soybeans to the same volunteers and tracked their fibrinolytic activity. The tests showed no significant change.
Nattokinase appears to have the added benefit of significantly reducing elevated blood pressure (an often concomitant condition in cardiovascular disease risk factors, such as high fibrin). Nattokinase appears to be safe, and has been used for over 1,000 years safely with no reports of toxicity. Various other nutritional supplements / herbs have been reported to have fibronlytic activity; however, the potency of Nattokinase appears to be superior. Furthermore, Nattokinase also appears to be an activator of various other metabolic enzymes and vitamins, cleaving them from their inactive to their active forms. The strength and magnitude of this direct support for the metabolic enzymes of the body, from an oral enzyme supplement, is unique to Nattokinase and shows great promise as a nutritional supportive agent in exciting and diverse ways.
Final points regarding digestive plant enzyme studies
Animal studies have shown that the difference in lifespan between groups of animals eating dead (cooked) food with no enzymes and groups eating live (raw) food with all the natural enzymes present is a 30% increase. While no studies have been performed on humans there is no reason to believe that human studies would not obtain similar results.
The Pottinger Cats Study is a great example of what happens when eating cooked and processed foods over a long period of time. The Pottinger cats study lasted for ten years, with three generations of cats being studied. Approximately 900 cats were involved. Dr. Francis Pottinger took 2 sets of cats and fed them only raw milk and raw meat. He took 3 more sets of cats and fed them cooked meat and pasteurized milk. This study was specifically designed to show the difference between eating raw foods versus cooked and processed foods over a long period of time. The cats eating the raw food were disease free and healthy generation after generation after generation. The cats eating the cooked and processed foods, that humans eat, had different results. By the end of the 1st generation the cats started to develop degenerative diseases and became quite lazy. By the end of the 2nd generation the cats had developed degenerative diseases by mid-life and started losing their coordination. By the end of the 3rd generation the cats eating the cooked foods had developed degenerative diseases very early in life and some were born blind and weak and had a much shorter life span. Many of the third generation cats couldn't even produce offspring. The cats study gives us a little insight into why children today are getting degenerative diseases that used to only show up in humans at an age of 50 years or older.
Instructions for use of Systemic Enzyme Therapy
It has been discovered in many clinical studies and on a personal experience basis by many individuals and therapists, that taking enzymes can often reduce or even eliminate the very diseases that have developed over years of cooked food consumption. In this situation, enzymes should be taken with food to help the digestion of that meal and also on an empty stomach / in-between meals to retain their potency, enter the blood stream and to be delivered around the body to gradually break down the toxic waste that has built up from years of enzyme insufficiency.
· To aid the digestion of food take one to two capsules with meals #
· For systemic enzyme therapy, two capsules twice daily, up to three capsules three times daily in times of extra need. To obtain all the other therapeutic benefits take on an empty stomach, such as on rising and retiring and / or at least one hour before or two hours after food #
· Systemic enzyme therapy and to aid digestion of food may be combined for maximum benefits. Example use: two capsules on rising, two on retiring, and one with each meal. Maximum use: of 9 capsules daily #
