Guest guest Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 I would like to try serrapeptase for removing arterial plaque, but all the information I can find on it has been written by companies selling it, or promoting it. I've done a lot of research on it, but would like to hear from someone who has actually used it successfully. It sounds so promising. I'm a pessimist and I have no faith in doctors or pharmaceuticals. I keep thinking if this stuff really works, the powers that be would have it off the market. Sorry to be so negative but enough illness will do that to you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 28, 2007 Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 I have experience (good ones) with a product called serratiopeptidase - is this the same substance? This is evidently an enzyme produced by silkworms that research (mostly Japanese) is showing to have good effect for some folks. My daughter was helped almost immediately for pain due to muscle strain, but she found that she could only take it in the evening as it made her very relaxed and sleepy. I take it to help with bronchitis inflammation/ashma and pain, but it does not have the sleep effect on me at all! My daughter found it enhances her alternative herbs that she takes for high blood pressure. In other words, it seems to help with other substances to effect one's management of pain, high B/P, etc. But I am making no claims, because each person must learn to be responsible for their own health and well-being. And what works for one, may not work for others, even all the time when it does work. We truly are living in the " quantum soup " these days, and there are no " certainties " or silver bullets that work the same way for everyone all the time!

Guest guest Posted January 29, 2007 Report Share Posted January 29, 2007 Thanks for replying to my post. I think everyone has to find out what works for them also. Since the serrapeptase claims to not have any side effects I don't see where it can hurt to try it. I think your serratiopeptidase is probably serrapeptase with other ingredients added. It would just be nice to know if anyone ever had luck with it dissolving plaque. , " Norma Pirie " <pirie wrote: > > I have experience (good ones) with a product called serratiopeptidase - is this the same substance?

Guest guest Posted January 31, 2007 Report Share Posted January 31, 2007 I am currently using it. It works quite well for inflamation, pain associated with inflamation. There are absolutely no side effects that I have noticed from taking Serrapeptase. Go to PubMed and search for Serrapeptase. You will find about 40 articles and abstracts. There is nothing published on the dissolving of atheroscerosis damaged blood vessels. There are papers on carpel tunnel, dental inflammation, blood clots. I really doubt if you will find anything in the peer reviewed literature for a double blind cross over study on the efficacy of serrapeptase in dissolving arterial plaques. Who's going to pay for it? Based on what I know about fibrionlytic enzymes, it is reasonable to assume that they would be beneficial in healing the plaques which are a mixture of calcium, oxidized cholesterol, fibrin, immune system cells spewing inflamitory mediators. You would have to do some chelation, antioxidants, Pauling Rath type stuff, Budwig Diet and it would most likely work. Just taking the enzyme and not making any other beneficial changes would be a waste of your time. Most people are too lazy and want a pill to solve their problems. That's the reality that you get from the years of programming that your mind gets from the TV. A really good thing to do is have your red blood cell membranes analyzed for their lipid profile and make the appropriate adjustments to your diet to optimize the omega3/omega6 ratios. To me, this is the cornerstone of good health. My mother who has polycythema vera is currently using it for edema in her ankles. It has worked for her. The pain, swelling, redness is all but gone. We know that it's the Serrapeptase because she stopped for 6 weeks and the swelling came back. I think that it's great stuff along with nattokinase and lumbrokinase.
