(www.NaturalNews.com) Imagine if you knew of someone over 60 who was cured in 3
weeks from advanced emphysema and COPD (chronic obstructive pulmonary disorder)
with an inexpensive natural enzyme. And what if you found out this natural
enzyme was good for a variety of different health problems, even those nagging
"minor" ailments of aging? This inexpensive miracle enzyme is called
serrapeptase. The story of the man in his 60's who recovered in 3 weeks was
related during a radio interview about serrapeptase, by Dennis Gore, a
A Dramatic Anecdote
According to Dennis, in 2002, an ill man was brought into the pharmacy in a
wheelchair by his wife. He had to breath bottled oxygen, was on antibiotics, and had to
use steroid sprays to reduce inflammation
constantly. Because of all this, he was often getting other bad infections and
ill side effects.
The man had heard Dennis on BBC radio discussing studies done in parts of
So this severely ill individual asked the pharmacist for some serrapeptase,
which Dennis had on hand. The instructions Dennis gave him were to take two
20,000 IU tablets, about 5 grams, on an empty stomach four times a day, and
then phase down to less as he got better.
Three weeks later, a 6 foot middle aged man walked into the pharmacy and
asked Dennis Gore if he remembered him. Dennis couldn't. So the man told him he
was the one that had COPD, emphysema, and was wheelchair bound just three weeks
earlier. He was no longer on antibiotics, sprays, nor was he using oxygen cylinders. Two years
later he was still fine and one of the pharmacist's steady customers. And he
hadn't even quit smoking!
What Is Serrapeptase?
Serrapeptase is an enzyme that was originally found in silkworms. The silkworm
produces this enzyme to digest the tough Mulberry leaves that it lives on, and
more importantly, it also uses it to rapidly bore through it's tough cocoon and
fly away before any predator can catch it. Scientists isolated this enzyme and
began creating cultures by adding a protein. From there they began successful
clinical experiments and trials. And it went from that phase to broad usage. It
is considered a standard medicine
in
Enzymes are catalysts that enable or speed up biochemical reactions. Just like
we were told in high school chemistry, the catalyst, in this case an enzyme,
does not get consumed by the chemical reaction. It starts it. There are around
4000 biochemical reactions that require enzymes as catalysts. So the
human body needs enzymes not only to digest foods, as many know, but also
needs enzymes for cellular activity.
The particular enzyme activity of serrapeptase is unique. Dennis Gore had
studied the reports of a German doctor, Dr. Hans Napier, who had positive
results with clearing blocked arteries and preventing the need for by-pass
operations. In other words, it is effective and safe as an arterial chelation
agent. Dr. Napier treated a woman with serrapeptase who was scheduled to have
her hand amputated. She recovered without the amputation.
Unlike many medications used to remove arterial wall plaque or inflamed lipids
(fats) in the blood stream, serrapeptase does not block the biosynthesis of
cholesterol. Cholesterol in its pure form is an antioxidant necessary for all
organs in the body to function properly. If it's biosynthesis is hampered, long
term health issues will
occur.
In addition, it is a very powerful natural anti-inflammatory agent. So any area
of inflammation in the body is mollified without resorting to steroid or non
steroid drug use, which almost always has side effects, and with a high price
tag!
Serrapeptase Historical and Current Usage
Serrapeptase has a 25 year history of use in parts of
It has been used successfully for the treatment of cardiovascular problems,
arthritis, fibrocystic breast disease, lung problems, sinusitis problems,
carpal tunnel syndrome, and even sports injuries. It is recommended as an
anti-aging agent simply because much of aging has to do with the accumulation
of scar tissue, inflammation, and disregulation.
Inflammation is part of a necessary process to protect healthy cells from
harmful invaders of all types. Disregulation occurs when the inflammation
process loses discrimination and no longer differentiates between harmful and
benign substances. Then there is unnecessary inflammation leading to long term
autoimmune problems.
There are many reports of aches and pains vanishing from people's lives after
using Serrapeptase. This natural enzyme does not suppress the immune system in any
way. There are no known side effects, not even indigestion. There are many
sources available in capsule and tablet form. It's recommended that heavy
dosages be taken early until a positive change occurs, then taper off to a
lighter dosage.
So why is serrapeptase not a household term even after 25 years of use in parts
of

(NaturalNews) A primary benefit of natural enzymes is their elimination and
prevention of scar tissue and fibrosis. Fibrosis itself is scar tissue. As we
age, fibrosis becomes a leading cause of eventual death. Around our late 20's
our bodies begin to produce a diminishing output of enzymes and by the time we
reach our 40's we produce very little enzymes. Cystic fibrosis patients have
virtually no enzyme production to speak of, and even cystic fibrosis children
seldom make it past their 20's before they die of the restriction and shrinkage
in the lungs from the formation of fibrosis or scar tissue.
As a result of diminishing enzyme production, our bodies are less and less able
to reduce the over abundance of fibrin it deposits in nearly everything from
simple cuts, to the inside of our internal organs and blood vessels. This
inability is particularly noticeable in women, who frequently develop
conditions such as fibrocystic breast disease, uterine fibroids, adhesions, and
endometriosis. Men and women alike grow arterial sclerotic plaque (which is
scar tissue). We are all also prone to have fibrin begin to spider its way into
our internal organs, reducing the organs' size and function over time. As we
age, our wounds heal with thicker, less pliable, weaker and more visible scars.
By replacing lost enzymes we can help control and reduce scar tissue and
fibrosis, thus preventing many of the problems associated with lack of enzymes
and excess fibrin. Adding vital enzymes can also help reverse and control
existing conditions caused by fibrosis. Even old scar tissue can be dissolved
and "eaten away" from surgical wounds, pulmonary fibrosis, kidney
fibrosis and even keloids years after their formation. Though doctors in the
Among the best enzymes for removal of scar tissue are serrapeptase and
nattokinase. Chymotrypsin and pancreatin are considered to be especially
valuable against cancer tumors, especially pancreatic cancer tumors.
An especially powerful enzyme is serrapeptase, which is a proteolytic enzyme
derived from a species of bacteria originally found in the intestines of
silkworms. The bacteria Serratia marcescens E1 produces Serrapeptase, an enzyme
that enables the silkworm to dissolve its tough cocoon and emerge as the
silkworm moth. Serratia is produced by fermented cultures. Studies have shown
that serrapeptase reduces scar tissue, improves tissue healing and
significantly reduces inflammation.
Serrapeptase also has the ability to digest non-living tissue that is a
by-product of the healing response without harming living tissue. Serrapeptase
is used to dissolve non-living tissues to include: scar tissue, fibrosis, blood
clots, cysts and arterial plaque. It is also used as an anti-inflammatory agent
against Sinusitis, as a thinner for mucous secretion and as an agent against
varicose veins and fibrocystic breasts. It is believed that serrapeptase can
play a key role in dissolving the outer protective layers of cancer cells and
tumors to enable the immune system and other cancer fighters to better attack
the cancer.
Serrapeptase may be particularly effective for those who have lung problems, as
it clears out all of the inflammation, mucus and dead/scar tissue. Clearing
away problem tissues enables the body's own natural healing system to be able
to better replace the bad tissue with healthy tissue and result in better lung
function. Serrapeptase also helps eliminate old scar tissue by slowly digesting
all of the dead tissue/scar tissue so that it can be replaced as needed with
healthy tissue
Serrapeptase is particularly sensitive to a low pH, thus the supplement
versions which are enterically coated are considered superior.

From I don't really understand
why Serapeptase works but it does. I have been suffering for years with
Sciatica and numb feet and legs. I have used numerous pain killers and
natural remedies trying to kill the pain. I have not been able to sleep on my
right side for many years and getting through a day of work sitting at my
desk has been a constant challenge. I have only been taking it for a week and
already I am able to sleep on my right side. The pain from my sciatica is
gradually subsiding. Right this minute I am not aware of any discomfort. I
cannot believe my good fortune to have discovered this! I believe it is also
helping with my sinuses. Thank you Iherb for providing such an informative
website.

From Within two weeks of using
Serrapeptase I noticed the solar keratosis ( sun damaged skin ) on my scalp
improving. Now after six weeks it is still improving and I believe it is
slowly dissolving scar tissue on my nose from a previous skin cancer site. To
say the least I am delighted and I have now put my 17 year old son on
Serrapeptase to see if we can improve his acne and some scarring from the
same. Eric F. from

From I was diagnosed with a
thing called Mortens Neuroma and told the only way to fix this would be
surgery. After surfing around on the net i got onto Serrapeptase and with all
the write ups being positive I thought I would give them a go. The
traditional "allow 3 months for them to get into your system" for
me blew out of the door when after 3 weeks I started to feel some very a lot
better. Mortens Neuroma is a kind of cyst that grew in between bones in my
foot and gave me excruciating pain at certain times which made it very
difficult to walk without a pronounced limp. Anyway after being on 3
Serrapeptase tablets per day, taken every night before going to bed, I can
honestly say that 3 weeks from starting to take them I can walk without pain.
Thank You Brian Hudson

Serrapeptase works like magic for osteoarthritis. I have a severe case of
it. I do not take any other anti-inflammation drug or any pain killer.

In my younger years I rode and trained race horses and was injured several times once breaking my neck and I’m still here to talk about it now in my older years. My right hip, neck, shoulders and general body have developed muscular skeletal determination. I have been in pain for so long I can’t remember when I wasn’t until now. My doctor asked me to take serrapeptase hoping to get me off Celebrex and to keep me from going on narcotics for relief of my pain. I took three serrapeptase yesterday three this morning and three more just a while ago. The pain I have felt for so long is gone. I can run and walk without pain of any kind. This has renewed my life and made it a joy to get up in the morning and thank God for another day. thank you. BV

For over 20 years I’ve had pressure pains in my head. I’ve been to neurologist after neurologist after neurologist. They put me on Neurontin and Depakote. That stuff leaves you groggy and you walk around like a zombie. They doped me up so much I finally just quit taking all medication. I would wake up at night with such severe pains in my head that I thought about putting a gun to my head. I read about serrapeptase and bought some and it has given me great relief. It’s a miracle; it honestly, truly is. It has made a believer out of me. I noticed the biggest difference when I increased the dosage to 3 tablets 3 times per day. I really thank you. You can use my story along with my name on your website if you want.

I’ve been taking 5 serrapeptase tablets twice a day since Thursday. I don’t
know if it’s in my head or reality but I feel a lot better. My pain was almost
where I couldn’t walk. I still have pain but nothing to the acuteness of
before. I thank you for having a product like this that helps. Please send 6
more bottles. I want to keep them on hand to give to friends. LS

Five years ago I was diagnosed with spinal stenosis. I was unable to walk without a cane and they said I needed an operation. I didn’t let them operate but the symptoms kept getting worse. I’ve been taking serrapeptase for 3 months and the pain has subsided markedly. I can now walk without a cane but I still carry it with me just in case. I’ve also noticed an increase in mental acuity. I’m 84 and I’m on the computer all the time. There are very few people my age that use a computer. Serrapeptase is a gift. I see it strengthening and enhancing people’s lives. DF
(Note: Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the diameter of the spinal canal.
Symptoms may include muscle weakness, pain, cramps, or numbness in the legs.)

A serrapeptase customer came into the store and he said that the blockage in
his heart was gone. He was very excited.

Since I started taking serrapeptase in July I’ve lost 36 pounds and 4 inches off my waist. People who haven’t seen me in awhile don’t even recognize me. I had been taking Motrin, two 800mg pills 3-4 times daily and now most days I don’t even need to use it at all. MS
MS’s wife added: My husband started taking serrapeptase because he had high
cholesterol and the cholesterol drugs gave him headaches so bad that he
couldn’t take them. Within six months of starting serrapeptase his cholesterol
dropped from 221 to 176. Serrapeptase has worked well for his brother also.
He’s taken 5 notches off his belt since starting on serrapeptase.
___________________________________________________________
Serrapeptase has helped me a lot. I was having a lot of chest pain and chest
tightness and experiencing an attack about twice a week.
I’ve been using serrapeptase for 2 months now and the attacks and chest pains
have stopped. I still get an occasional tinge but nothing like it was before.
My accupuncturist urged me to see a heart specialist but I figured he’d want to
operate and I couldn’t withstand an operation. I believe that serrapeptase is
responsible for improving my condition although I also started taking magnesium
and that might have helped.
_____________________________________________________________
I have MS, fibromyalgia, and RSD which are 3 different nerve diseases which
cause me a lot of pain. My brother’s friend has MS and he said that
serrapeptase helped him so I ordered a bottle.
Within 24 hours I felt a lot better. I couldn’t believe the difference. I was
living on Vioxx but with the serrapeptase I was able to reduce the Vioxx to
only twice a week. DS

A friend suggested serrapeptase to me because it worked so well for him. I started taking serrapeptase 2 months ago and I got an immediate response. After awhile I thought that maybe it was all in my head but when I ran out of serrapeptase, I could tell the difference. I can tell the difference before and I can tell the difference after. We have a strong family tendency for arthritis and serrapeptase removes my pain and gives me mobility. Life is good again. I also have severe allergies and the doctors have given me all kinds of drugs but they didn’t control my allergies. With serrapeptase I can wear fragrance again. I don’t have to worry about colognes stuffing up my nose. I can live a normal life again and I want to share this information to help others.
_____________________________________________________________
My vision has improved since I started taking serrapeptase and I honestly feel better. It’s the only product that I’ve ever taken that I could feel a difference. I had glaucoma surgery 7 months ago and I wake up with a greasy moisture in my eyes and some times my eyes sting like hell but my vision has actually improved. It has to be the serrapeptase because it’s the only thing different that I’ve taken. I only started taking it 5 or 6 days ago. I’ve been taking 4 in the morning, 4 in mid-afternoon, and 4 before bed.

Since I’ve been taking serrapeptase my sinuses haven’t bothered me as much. I haven’t been as congested as before and my sinuses haven’t wakened me at night like they did before.

I am beginning to see benefits since taking Serrapeptase. My latest OB/GYN appointment showed my uterine fibroids had shrunk significantly in size. I’m telling all my friends about it and I think a few have ordered from you.

I am 65 years old and I have had HORRIBLE pain on the outer side of my left
leg for 3 months. It got progressively worse, and as the days progressed, I got
where I could no longer walk after
I had gone to the emergency room and they found nothing - but handed me a prescription for a NARCOTIC and told me to take it. I tore it up and dropped in the wastebasket as I left the emergency room.
Still hurting even worse, 4-5 days later I went to another emergency room in another town, wanting a second opinion. They ran a bunch of expensive tests again, and still found nothing, and again they handed me a prescription for a NARCOTIC! AGAIN I threw it away. I refused to cover up the problem by taking narcotics indefinitely!
I had heard of Serrapeptase from a friend - her mom (in her 70’s) had been barely creeping along for years with a walker, and suddenly she was using NO walker, No cane, nothing to help her and she was walking just like anyone else! Well, when I inquired, I learned she was taking Serrapeptase! She went from walker to nothing in 6 days! Now, I saw her a week before and she barely was able to get from the curb into the church, a distance of maybe 20 feet and had to stop and rest. Next week you would never have know there was anything wrong!
I am the world’s worst skeptic on “Miracle” anything! But, I witnessed it
myself. So, I figured I had nothing to lose! I ordered it on a Friday and
received it the following MONDAY. I took 2 tablets of the Serrapeptase as soon
as I could rip the package open and get the lid off the bottle! I took them
again at
It was
I am going to leave copies of this testimonial everywhere I can, in the hope that maybe just a few non-skeptics might learn about SERRAPEPTASE!
I hope that GOD will bless you with a wonderful life, and I can never thank you enough for giving MINE back to me!

Serrapeptase was recommended to me by a friend for my arthritis. I have a lot of obscure drug reactions. Darvon didn’t work and codeine stopped the peristalsis in my bowels. I was taking morphine sulfate for pain because I can’t take NSAIDS. After taking two and a half bottles of serrapeptase I didn’t need to take morphine any longer. I take serrapeptase every 8 hours. I found out for me that it wears off after about 8 hours. I don’t think that medicine has done enough for people with arthritis. Serrapeptase worked better than I ever expected so I’m willing to try some of your other products.
Serrapeptase is also amazing for sinus. I had a sinus blockage above my right eye for one and a half years that nothing helped. I took serrapeptase for about a week and it was gone. I gave serrapeptase to my daughter and she began feeling dizzy. We realized later that serrapeptase had cleaned out her inner ears which was the source of her vertigo.
My other daughter has a back injury that has troubled her for some time. After seeing my results she tried serrapeptase. When she didn’t notice any difference after taking it for only one day she complained that it didn’t work. However 4 days later she called and said, “Mother, it’s a miracle. My back doesn’t hurt.” Her back hasn’t bothered her since.
I think serrapeptase is wonderful. I can’t thank you enough.

Let me tell you about serrapeptase. Serrapeptase is better than a cortisone shot. I have tennis elbow and I used to have to take cortisone shots. Now the pain in my elbow, knees, wrists, and ankles is gone. I started with 4 tablets 3 times daily then I reduced to 3 tablets 3 times daily. If I take less than that I notice some pain in my joints. My ankle swelling is gone now and it looks like someone else with skinny ankles is wearing my shoes. My hemorrhoid disappeared. It had been my friend for 30 years but I don’t miss it one bit. Also my blood pressure is down 10 points. I think serrapeptase is great. I recommended it to my brother and he said it took 2-3 weeks for his joint pain to go away.

At the moment I am dealing with inflammation in shoulder muscle tears and a herniated disk. The serrapeptase has really been making a difference. I started with 6 tablets 3X a day. When I backed off to 3 tablets 3X a day I noticed the difference and so increased it again these last few days. It has made these days much more comfortable and more movement possible.
Thank you again,

I have been using serrapeptase for about 3 weeks because of a partially degenerated disc in my lower back. I have been in law enforecement for 35 years and I am pretty skeptical of products in general. Just two days ago my pain has subsided, and I find it unbelievable. The pain that I was experiencing was just almost unbearable! I was living on ibuprofein but now, I really do not need it.

I’ve suffered from neck pain for the last 42 years from 6 different whiplash injuries. Two occurred when I was driving and 4 occurred when I was a passenger.

I have been on incredible amounts of pain medication. After taking serrapeptase my condition improved a lot. Also, my friend accidentally hit his wife in the hand with a hammer and her hand became discolored and a lump developed and she had a burning sensation in her hand. The injury was 2 weeks old when I gave her a bottle of serrapeptase. Her hand healed quickly and she was amazed that the lump and a cyst she had dissolved.

I used to wrap my hands because I had jabbing pains at the base of the thumb and my wrists were aching bad. I started taking serrapeptase 3 tablets twice per day and I haven’t had to wrap my hands in over a week now. My foot used to hurt so bad that I had to walk on the ball of my foot but in less than a week of taking serrapeptase my foot stopped hurting. It’s unbelievable.

Smart Nutrition,
Just thought I would let you know how impressed I am with your Serrapeptase supplement.
Having a hip defect, I suffer from arthritis and have been in a great deal of pain for the past few years. I tried Serrapeptase after reading a newspaper article, and was amazed at the results. After just a couple of days, the inflammation in my joints had reduced, and I am now pain-free. I have been able to reduce my prescription drugs from 18 a day to 2, and I can walk normally for the first time in years, which I am really grateful for as I’m still only 34!
My friends cannot believe the difference, and some have been trying Serrapeptase for themselves-all with successful results.
I will definitely be placing another order.
You can reprint my letter. I hope that other people find Serrapeptase as beneficial as I have. I finally have my life back after years of suffering with pain.
Yours sincerely,
Janine Harper

With regard to the effects of Serrapeptase: I initially decided to try it
because
of an article in the
anti-inflammatory agent. It is available in the
advertised in
I have suffered from inflammation due to wear and tear and compressed disc in the lower back for six years now, and have had to rely on NSAIDS for relief. I don’t like taking them because of possible long term side-effects.
I find that serrapeptase is more effective than NSAID in this respect.
However, it so happens that there is a history of heart disease in my family
(from both parents), and whilst I have no symptoms, it is comforting to know
that serrapeptase may well be removing any build-up of arterial plaque. I can
only assume that it is not prescribed by doctors here in
It also happens that I am mildly asthmatic (I sound like a walking, talking
hospital case), and for as long as I can remember, I have suffered from nasal
blockage on one side or the other. This has dramatically reduced and more often
than not, vanished, since I started to use serrapeptase.
I have noticed no side effects. I have no objection to you showing this to your customers.
