Enzymedica - SerraGold, Enzyme Support for a Healthy Inflammatory Response, Cardiovascular and Immune Health, 120 Capsules

I purchased these after reading about enzymes in relation to digestive enzymes for leaky gut. This company (Enzymedica) is very helpful on the phone, and sent me some samples and a nice brochure of their products, with supplement facts (ingredients listing) for each of their products, as well as what they are for and how to use them. Enzymedica was recommended on enzymestuff.com. as well. I use their Gastro (a low protease enzyme blend) before meals, and that has allowed me to add foods to my diet when I was down to eating oatmeal with everyday bringing new food sensitivities. I can eat again! I was enthused by the reviews here, and I have no doubt these SerraGold enzymes work, but for me they worked too well. As a metabolic enzyme, taken on an empty stomach, they go into the blood stream and clean out excess fibrin or other proteins that shouldn't be there. What I found after less than a week of one capsule in the morning, was that just walking around in well fitting but hard boots, I ended up with bruises on my toes. These are not new shoes, and I never had that happen before. I guess I don't have too much fibrin to start with. Also, I cut my finger, and it took several minutes of hard pressure to get the bleeding to stop. It was just a little cut. I am not on any medications, and don't take Aspirin or NSAIDS etc. So I would say, as with all supplements and medications, start low and start one at a time.

This is a great product for several reasons, but my usage is because many years ago I had a trigger finger that was going to be operated on for a lot of money. I had started working at a health store, and my boss suggested that I try a Serrapeptase product to stop the inflammation in my finger. Within in a month, my trigger finger stopped, and I have been using it ever since. I choose SerraGold for it's potency.

Works great for my neck pain!

I chose this product because it is supposed to help with pain. After the third bottle, I still don't feel any difference

I ordered this on recommendation from a friend, who said it 'cured his back pain'... now i was sure there was no cure in a bottle, but ordered none the less, and found that i have nearly had no need for painkillers!! now i had already cut back from ALOT of heavy duty painkillers, to ALOT of tylenol, but I didn't want to stay on the tylenol, and thought this might help, and it did, much to my shock and surprise! i find that when i'm in a stressed out mood, i can get more aches and pains and have to take pain killers, but other than that, i'm ok... my back still hurts when i sleep, but not NEAR as much, i don't wake up wanting to cry anymore... so I don't know if this is some cosmic coincidence or what, but I'm feeling much better!
