Conquer inflammation with Serrapeptase

By Dr. Zoltan P. Rona, M.D., M.Sc.

“As an anti-inflammatory, nothing surpasses the ability of Serrapeptase to safely stop inappropriate (sometimes it is needed) inflammation in its tracks. No matter the cause or the

location (it even crosses the blood brain barrier), Serrapeptase gets to work stopping the inflammation. If that is not enough, it has the ability to dissolve any dead or non-living tissue that

may be gumming up the works, particularly mucus and inflammation associated with pain.” Robert Redfern-Author, “The Miracle Enzyme”

Why Is Inflammation Important?

Inflammation is the number one reason that an individual consults any health care practitioner. Arthritis, gastritis, colitis, dermatitis, nephritis, neuritis and cystitis are just some of the common inflammatory conditions that bring people to their doctors every day. If the doctor’s diagnosis ends in the four letters, “itis”, by definition, inflammation is involved.

There are also numerous diseases or health challenges that you might not think involve inflammation but that are closely linked to it. For example, heart disease, especially coronary artery disease, is thought to be directly associated with inflammation. Inflammation is now considered to be a more important risk factor for heart disease than high cholesterol levels. There are laboratory tests for inflammation that will indicate one’s risk for heart disease. These include ESR, hs (high sensitivity) - CRP (C-Reactive Protein) and fibrinogen. All three tests indicate the presence of inflamma-tion in the body and, if elevated, a higher risk for heart disease. It is also an interesting fact that statin drugs routinely used by the medical profession to lower blood levels of cholesterol are actually anti-inflammatory in their mechanism of action.

Cancer spread is accelerated by inflammation and many cancer therapies utilize anti-inflammatory drugs such as steroids to keep the features of inflammation (swelling and pain) under control. Obesity, dementia, mi-graine headaches and Alzheimer’s disease involve inflammation. So do all infections, allergic conditions such as hives and virtually all-autoimmune diseases. Asthma, diabetes, psoriasis, other skin disorders and irritable bowel syndrome also all involve inflammation. The medical treatments for all these conditions are anti-inflammatory drugs as the main therapy. Sports injuries (e.g. tendonitis, bursitis) and any musculo-skeletal injury sustained in a motor vehicle accident involve inflammation. If you are alive, chances are high you are or have been inflamed in some way.

Conventional doctors have always treated inflammation with drugs and surgery. In some cases, interventions such as surgery for an inflamed appendix are life saving. So are short-term antibiotics for some infections such as pneumonitis (pneumonia). Modern medicine is wonderful in treating acute illnesses but fails miserably when it comes to chronic disease or prevention. In the majority of cases of chronic illness or inflammation, current medical treatments only serve to suppress symptoms without making any dent in the disease process itself.

Useage

Serrapeptase is best taken on an empty stomach (1 hour before of 2 hours after meals). If combined or taken with food, it helps digest the food but does nothing to reverse inflammation. In purchasing Serrapeptase, make sure it is enteric coated so that it will not be broken down and inactivated by stomach acids. In that way, the enzyme can reach the small intestines from where it can be absorbed into the bloodstream and reduce inflammation anywhere in the body.
