I just had a very informative conversation with a product specialist at a company that produces enzymes, serrapeptase being one of them. I was wanting to know IF I'm taking enough etc. He said one cannot take too many enzymes. Since I'm only taking one per day of the 120,000 units, he said to take 2 of these 2-3 times per day as far away from food as one can, but not to stress if they get mixed up with some foods...
Once a person is feeling shifts, and I've felt some already, then go down to maintenance dosing. If a person is planning some activities, take more before starting on the activities. This enzyme addresses PAIN, arthritis, all inflammation and much more. I'm glad I talked to this person and am more clear on how much I will be taking to get even more results optimally. Anything to save my knee and foot/ankle and help with lower back OA and shoulders too. |

Thanks for the info on serrapeptase. I am so glad you are feeling better using this supplement. While the "product specialist" has reportedly stated, "...one cannot take to many enzymes," I feel it's important to let you know others offer a very different opinion. There are clearly circumstances under which serrapeptase supplementation may pose risks. WebMD has offers information on serrapeptase and when to take it, when there may be side-effects, interactions and/or contraindications. http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supple...e=serrapeptase I find the WebMD info on serapeptase in alignment with the general thinking and viewpoints of professional CAM practitioners I have dealt with over the past 20 -30 years. I believe this "product specialist" has not done due diligence in fully understanding the potential effects of serapeptase and I feel his/her comment, as reported in your post, is truly erroneous and is a gross disservice to you. I know you search for truths. I also realize you enjoy sharing the information you find. Bless you for wanting to share so much with others! I am sorry this "specialist" has made this statement to you. I hope anyone potentially interested in the use of serapeptase will look deeply into the safe use of serapeptase and deeply into the safe use of enzymes in general. To Our Healing, DejaVu |

Thanks, I've read 100's of positive reviews and I've got to stick with this supp. I'll probably call the company again next week to talk more. I read the Webmd link before. If I can get pain relief and walk better, it's worth every cap I take. Beats more drugs and not walking better. As I said I notice a shift in the short time so far.

I would like to comment on this topic, especially the manufacturer suggestion to drastically up the dosing.
Manufacturers of supplements are not like drug companies who do studies and have extensive chemistry and toxicity data available on their products. I don't think one can really put much trust in them therefore. Here are some examples: There are makers of B12 who put "take with food" on their directions. And this is absolutely wrong...as medical studies show poor or little absorption of microgram doses of drugs from the GI tract when food is present. There are still timed release forms of B12 on the market and these don't work. Cal/Mag/zinc supplements for the most part have magnesium oxide in them and do NOT provide absorption for that mineral. But they keep putting that form in their products, when it is now common knowledge that other forms of magnesium are better utilized. Some makers still do not put elemental values of minerals on their product labels. (leading to confusing consumers about dosing). In this case on this thread I see a clear intention of selling MORE enzyme to make more $$ for the maker, rather than for the safety of the consumer. Here is one opinion: http://examine.com/supplements/serrapeptase/ Quote:
