SERRAPEPTASE
An enzyme called serrapeptase ---secreted by the silkworm to dissolve it’s cocoon---is used
in most industrialized countries to dissolves all nonliving tissue, including blood clots, cysts,
fibrin, fibroids, arterial plaque and inflammation in all forms.
The U.S. Government banned this supplement from the US based on a decision, dated May
30,1985 by the U.S. Food and Drug (FDA) Commissioner, and affirmed by the U.S. Court of
Appeals on April 1, 1986, which determined that "oral anti-inflammatory proteolytic enzymes
(OPE) which are labelled for use in controlling edema and inflammation associated with
surgical, obstetrical, or dental procedures or accidental trauma to any part of the body or
infections or allergic manifestations, have not been shown to be effective for such uses,"
COURT BAN ON SERRAPEPTASE. In 1997 the U.S. Government permitted the sale of this
supplement in the U.S. market. We could not find any U.S. Government study approving or
disapproving the claimed benefits.
Clinical use of serrapeptase as an anti-inflammatory in Europe and Asia spans over twenty
five years. Treatment includes chronic sinusitis, elimination of bronchopulmonary secretions
(the enzyme breaks down protein fibers, allowing mucous to thin), sprains and torn
ligaments, and other traumatic injuries, idiopathic edema, as well as postoperative
inflammation.
The late German physician Dr. Hans Nieper used serrapeptase to treat arterial blockage in
his coronary patients, reporting that serrapeptase also dissolves blood clots, and causes
varicose veins to shrink or diminish. Dr. Nieper’s treatments was sought by numerous
dignitaries and well-renowned personage, including President Ronald Reagan, but at the
same time denounced it as quackery to the general public. Dr. Hans Neiper Letter
Researchers in Germany continue to use serrapeptase to treat atherosclerosis since
serrapeptase helps to digest atherosclerotic plaque without harming healthy cells lining
the arterial wall. Unlike cholesterol-blocking drugs, serrapeptase clears the avital tissue from
the arterial wall without interfering with cholesterol synthesis. In fact, it was noted when taking
serrapeptase, cholesterol levels may rise as it is dissolved from the arteries to be eliminated
from the body (cholesterol in its pure state is an antioxidant and a necessary component of
steroidal hormones and the major organ systems in the body). Drugs blocking cholesterol
biosynthesis hold the threat of liver, eye, lung and other soft tissue damage. While studies
with serrapeptase in the treatment of coronary artery disease are relatively new; some
literature reports it as being superior to, and faster than, chelation.
This powerful enzyme also offers a viable alternative to synthetic salicylates (such as
aspirin), ibuprofen, and NSAIDS as well as steroids—a god send for those suffering with
rheumatoid arthritis and a wide array of other autoimmune diseases that affect the
inflammatory response, including ulcerative colitis, psoriasis, uveitis, allergies, and some
forms of cancer.
While steroidal and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs may offer temporary, symptomatic
relief from pain, swelling and inflammation, they may also be immunosuppressive and known
to hold dangerous side effects. Serrapeptase, on the other hand, eases pain and swelling
with no inhibitory effects on prostaglandins and no gastrointestinal side effects.
In addition, use has included treatment for uterine fibroids, fibrocystic breast disease and
carpal tunnel syndrome. The enzyme is also used to facilitate the therapeutic effect of
antibiotics in the treatment of infection. In urology serrapeptase has been successfully
employed to treat cystitis and epididymitis.
