Feeling Better - Looking Better - Living Longer
 How? With the use of systemic enzymes. Enzymes are said to be the “sparks of life.” They are considered keys that can unlock the door to a healthier you because they not only help improve digestion and nutrient absorption, they are also responsible for millions of bodily functions.
Vitalzym
is a blend of enzymes that work synergistically to provide total system support.
It contains protease, serrapeptase, papain, bromelain, amylase, lipase, rutin
and amla. According to Dr. Peter Streichhan, a world-renowned enzyme researcher from Germany, “enzyme mixtures have a wider range of therapeutic advantages than do individual enzymes.” 1
Vitalzym systemic
proteolytic enzyme therapy can assist the body in fighting:
Enzyme authority Dr. Anthony Cichoke says, “Every day, researchers throughout the world are discovering new enzymes and new therapeutic uses for them...Researchers are even studying enzyme replacement therapy devising new treatment methods for diseases that they have historically been unable to treat. This includes many diseases that result from inborn errors of metabolism, such as the inability of the body to make a particular enzyme.” 1
Read on to learn more about the benefits of systemic enzyme therapy and what you can do to help yourself naturally using Vitalzym.
The Purpose of Enzymes
 Our bodies have a variety of functional units, such as a digestive system, an immune system, a cardiovascular system, and a circulatory system, just to name a few. Each system requires energy in order to perform optimally. It just so happens that enzymes provide this much needed energy for the successful completion of each biological function.
What exactly are enzymes? They are proteins that are responsible for every chemical reaction that goes on in your body; governing all functions related to your tissues, muscles, bones, organs, and cells. Every second of our lives, over 3,000 different enzymes are constantly renewing and changing, often at unbelievable speeds.
Enzymes are responsible for everyday bodily processes, such as:
- Metabolism
- Digestion
- Breathing
- Movement
- Liver function
- Immune regulation
- Viscosity of blood
- Cellular detoxification
- Energy production
- Stamina
- Ability to utilize vitamins and minerals
Enzymes have been studied since the early 1900s. Even though there is over a century's worth of information regarding their use, we still have much to learn about them. Although, one thing is for certain; life as we know it, would not exist without them.
Over the last decade, science has uncovered numerous roles for enzymes than ever thought possible, as they literally initiate millions of reactions within your body. In fact, many health care professionals are now advocating the use of enzymes for various conditions and post-operative healing.
When referring to enzymatic supplements, it's important to distinguish between those used for digestion and those used systemically.
- Digestive enzymes are taken orally with food in order to help break down fats, carbohydrates, and proteins for improved digestive function and nutrient absorption.
- Systemic enzymes, such as those in Vitalzym, are taken orally in between meals on an empty stomach. This way they can be absorbed by the intestines into the bloodstream where the body can utilize them for countless bodily processes.
Vitalzym Systemic Enzyme Therapy for Healthier Bodies
Enzymes are one of the fundamental building materials that are required in all metabolic processes. When your body becomes deficient in systemic enzymes… you start to age faster, you heal slower, your body starts to physically slow down, aches and pains increase, you become much more susceptible to illness and diseases, and an accelerated degeneration and aging process happens as a result.
Some health care professionals believe that our natural production of enzymes starts to decrease after the age of 27. It is not too long after this that many of us begin to notice symptoms of low enzyme production, which can include:
Dr. Anthony Cichoke, enzyme authority, states in his book, Enzymes and Enzyme Therapy, that
"Our body's ability to function, to repair when injured, and to ward off disease is directly related to the strength and numbers of our enzymes.” 1

Supplemental enzymes like those in Vitalzym and Vitalzym SEB along with proper diet and exercise can help to maintain your normal enzyme levels and balance your body's own repair mechanisms. They can also help reduce the incidence of inflammatory and fibrosis conditions, as previously mentioned.

Major Functions of Systemic Enzyme Therapy
Fights
Inflammation:
Inflammation is the cause of pain associated with many different conditions like arthritis, fibromyalgia, and sports injuries; including muscle sprains, sciatica, and chronic back pain. Systemic enzymes are a healthy alternative to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as ibuprofen and aspirin.
- Helps reduce joint and muscle inflammation
- Acts as a natural pain reliever
- Helps reduce C-Reactive proteins, a marker for inflammation
- May lower inflammation by removing toxins and debris in
the circulatory system
- May reduce the inflammation associated with Sjogren's syndrome
"Physicians throughout Europe and Asia have recognized the anti-inflammatory and pain-blocking benefits of serrapeptase and are using it in treatment as an alternative to salicylates, ibuprofen and other NSAIDs." Source: The World of Obstetrics and Gynecology |
Read more about inflammation in the TIME magazine article, Health: The Fires Within
Fights
Fibrosis:
Fibrosis is a type of scar tissue formation containing fibrin (a type of protein) that can form masses or webs throughout the tissues, muscles, and organs. Excess fibrous tissue is marked by the body as “foreign proteins”. When there is a build up of excess fibrin, systemic enzymes like those in Vitalzym can help reduce these so called “foreign” proteins, which may help:
- Fight the
aging process by removing the buildup of fibrin
- Reduce Fibromyalgia symptoms by reduction and
removal of fibrin buildup
- Reduce Endometriosis by
removal of fibrin buildup
- Reduce Uterine
Fibroid Tumors by removal of fibrin buildup
- Reduce Pulmonary Fibrosis
by removal of fibrin buildup
- Reduce Chronic Fatigue Syndrome pain
- Reduce thickening
of the blood (fibrin deposits), increasing circulation
- Unclog the microcirculation
system, increasing circulation
- Reduce spider veins and wrinkles
- Reduce formation
of scar tissue
- Increase penile functionality
- Reduce
post-operative scar tissue, increases healing capabilities
"A Singapore Medical Journal (30( I ):48-5s4 1989 Feb) claims that enzymes eat scar tissue and fibrosis; therefore, it makes sense that replacing lost enzymes can help control and reduce the amount of scar tissue and fibrosis our bodies have." |
Immune
System Modulation:
Enzymes are adaptogenic, seeking to restore a steady state to the body. When the immune system is running low, we become susceptible to infectious disease. When it's cranked up too high, then the system creates antibodies that attack it's own tissues, as are seen in the autoimmune diseases of MS, Rheumatoid Arthritis, and Lupus. Here the types of enzymes found in Vitalzym can tone down immune function and eat away at the antibodies the immune system is making to attack its bodies own tissue. 3
When the immune system is run down too low, the types of enzymes found in Vitalzym can help increase the immune response, produce more Natural Killer cells, and improve the efficiency of the white blood cells, all leading to improved immunity. They can also help:
- Speed healing
- Balance the entire body synergy
- Increase the body’s defense mechanism by modulating our immune system
- Prevent the rejection of transplanted and
health-restoring organs and tissues
- Modulate
the cell-signaling pathway that triggers immune activation
Fights
Blood Contamination:
The blood is not only the river of life; it is also the river through which the cells and organs dispose of their waste. All of this material is supposed to be cleaned off by the liver on "first pass" or the first time it goes through. Given the sluggish and near toxic or toxic states of everyone's liver these days, that seldom happens. So the waste remains in the blood, waiting for the liver to have enough free working space and enough enzymes to clean it. This can take days or in some people, weeks! 2
Blood can become contaminated with toxins when the liver is over burdened and its capacity to cleanse the blood becomes diminished as a result. Another way contamination can occur is when excess fibrin builds up in the blood causing it to become too thick. This creates the perfect environment for blood clots to form. When systemic enzymes are taken, they can stand ready in the blood and take the strain off of the liver by helping to:
- Clear excess fibrin from the blood and reducing the stickiness of blood cells, which in turn helps minimize one of the leading causes of stroke, heart attack, and blood clots. 2
- Break down dead material small enough so it can immediately pass into the bowel. 2
- Maintain a normal blood flow by helping to prevent blood clots and platelet aggregations within blood vessels
- Assist in the liver’s detoxification process
- Improve functionality of white blood cell receptors and their ability to fight off infection. 3
- Reduce clogging of the microcirculatory system
- Improve homeostasis

about VitalzymSEB, an enzyme formula specifically
for cardiovascular health. Contains Nattokinase, Serrapeptase, and Co-Q10.
Fights
Viruses:
Viruses harm us by replicating in our bodies. To do this, a virus must bond itself to the DNA in our cells through the medium of its exterior protein cell wall. Anything that disrupts that cell wall inhibits the ability of viral replication by rendering individual viruses inert. 4,5
Systemic enzymes can tell the difference between the proteins that are supposed to be in your body and those that are foreign or not supposed to be there, such as viruses (again the enzyme lock and key mechanism). Vitalzym has the strongest protein eating effects of any enzyme due to its Serrapeptase content, which can help:
- Improve anti-virals, kills the virus
- Internal filters clean the circulatory system
- Lower viral loading
Side Effects
Dr. Cichoke says, “There appear to be no side effects of long-term duration when taking oral enzymes. Temporary side effects (that will disappear when therapy is discontinued or reduced); include changes in the color, consistency, and odor of the stool. Gastrointestinal disturbances, such as flatulence, a feeling of fullness, diarrhea, or nausea, may occur in individual cases, and minor allergic reactions (reddening of the skin) are rare and occur only with high doses.” He also goes on to say that no detriment has been associated with long term usage of supplemental enzymes and best results can be seen when doses are divided throughout the day rather than taken all at one time. 1

Manufactured in Japan for World Nutrition, Inc. Vitalzym passes both the USP (United States Pharmacopeia) and JP (Japan Pharmacopeia) testing for disintegration and dissolution. USP is a publication established in 1820 that contains legally recognized standards of identity, strength, quality, purity, packaging, and labeling for drug substances, dosage forms, and other therapeutic products, including nutritionals and dietary supplements. Every batch is tested to ensure it meets the agency guidelines before exportation to the U.S.
WARNING: DO NOT take Vitalzym without the consent of your physician if you are lactating, or currently taking prescription anti-coagulants (blood thinners). As always, you should consult with a health care professional and/or pharmacist if you are taking prescription medications and would like to include dietary supplements into your regimen. If you are pregnant consult with a doctor prior to using. If you are pregnant and have uterine fibroids, do not take Vitalzym. Discontinue use two weeks prior to surgery.
Not everyone should take Serrapeptase. People with bleeding disorders, such as hemophilia or a group of diseases called “hemorrhagic diathesias”, should not use this natural product. People with ongoing bleeding problems, including ulcers, recent surgery, recent major trauma, or hemorrhoids also should not use serrapeptase. Anyone who has ever suffered intracranial (brain) bleeding, or who has had neurosurgery or ischemic stroke in the previous six months, should avoid these enzymes. Those with severe uncontrolled high blood pressure should also refrain from taking nattokinase and serrapeptase.
Note: During the detoxification process, medications that have been stored in the liver may cause one to experience side effects that are related to its use and would not be considered a side effect from Vitalzym. Please talk with a health care professional if you feel you may be having symptoms that are unrelated to detoxing. Additionally, Vitalzym can increase the effectiveness of certain medications; another reason to consult with a doctor or pharmacist prior to using them if taking prescription drugs. Detoxification effects that can occur when taking Vitalzym can include heart palpitations for some individuals. If this occurs, you can reduce your dose to minimize the cleansing response. If you do experience heart palpitations that you feel may be unrelated to detoxing, please consult with a health care professional.
