High dose Enzymatic Therapy

 

he benefits of supplemental plant enzymes on your health and blood have been documented in numerous research studies. Most of the excitement and knowledge of this vital nutritional factor stems back to the work of biochemist, Dr. Edward Howell whose extensive, pioneer study in the enzyme concept began more than 50 years ago. His work and that of other noted researchers has shown the benefits of supplemental plant enzymes on various conditions of the body, particularly as they relate to the digestion and assimilation of foods..

Recent research has been increasingly more specific, focusing on different types and sources of plant enzymes, including various protease, lipase, carbohydrase, and cellulase preparations. Both in vitro and controlled in vivo studies using internal and parenteral routes have examined the effectiveness of these enzymes in a wide range of conditions including maldigestion, malabsorption, pancreatic insufficiency, steanorrhea, celiac disease, lactose intolerance, arterial obstruction and thrombotic disease. Reports from doctors across the nation indicate that plant enzymes are being used in an even broader spectrum of clinical conditions.

 

Data from various studies and clinical applications verify the efficacy of plant enzymes for a broad spectrum of conditions See enzymatic therapy

 

It is also thought fibromyalgia is related to excessive waste in the body. Undigested remains of disproportionate carbohydrate consumption can accumulate in tissue since the body cannot eliminate it properly. This might partially explain the patient response to palpation at several lymphatic trigger points when being diagnosed. The lymph system removes waste from the body. Yet, this will not occur very well when too much food is eaten causing a virtual backing up of the "plumbing"? Using highly concentrated enzymes with patients who have histamine reactions alleviates the response within a very short time and without the side-effects associated with conventional anti-histamines.

 

Magnesium

 

The mineral magnesium a powerful supplement– Magnesium is a trace mineral that is known to be required for several hundred different functions in the body. Significant portions of the symptoms of many chronic disorders are identical to symptoms of magnesium deficiency. Studies show many people in the U.S. today do not consume the daily-recommended amounts of magnesium. A lack of magnesium can be a major factor in many common health problems in industrialized countries. Common conditions such as mitral valve prolapse; migraines, attention deficit disorder, fibromyalgia, asthma and allergies have all been linked to magnesium deficiency. Perhaps, not coincidentally, these conditions also tend to occur in clusters together within the same individual. A magnesium deficiency as a root cause would provide a logical explanation of why some people suffer from a constellation of these types of problems.

In the book Encyclopedia of Natural Medicine, the authors note that food allergies are usually associated with low hydrochloric acid levels and poor digestion. The authors' rationale for this is that low stomach acid leaves food undigested and fermenting in the intestinal tract. This fermentation causes gas, bloating and stomach upset, the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome. Undigested and fermented food causes the body to raise histamine levels, which produce allergic reactions. This is why people take antihistamines for allergies, to lower histamine levels. Interestingly, magnesium is needed to reduce histamine levels.

 

Low stomach acid levels reduce levels of beneficial intestinal bacteria, which is needed for absorption of magnesium. When lab rats are deprived of magnesium, a wide variety of studies have noted that they develop allergy like symptoms. Their ears turn red and they develop skin problems. Rats with magnesium deficiencies have increases in histamine levels. They also have raised levels of white blood cell counts. Magnesium deficiency has been implicated in allergies and allergic skin reaction in many studies on humans, too. Variations of allergies, skin allergies, and raised white blood cells have all been noted as features of many chronic disorders.

 

People with chemical sensitivities also commonly have other conditions linked to magnesium deficits such as allergies, fibromyalgia, mitral valve prolapse and anxiety disorders. They also tend to have TMJ, which has been linked to abnormalities of hyaluronic acid. Perhaps not coincidentally, hyaluronic acid is dependent upon magnesium for its synthesis.

 

Asthma is has been linked to magnesium deficiencies in a wide variety of studies. Asthma and allergies not only frequently occur together, but they frequently occur together along with gastrointestinal upset in many chronic disorders including Mitral Valve Prolapse syndrome and Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Gastrointestinal upset is often a sign of malabsorption problems, which can be a cause of nutritional deficiencies

 

Many of the following conditions commonly occur in conjunction with each other and all have been linked to a magnesium deficiency.

 

This essential mineral is known to help relieve bronchospasm or constricted airways in the lungs and is actually used in the E.R. for treatment of acute asthma Studies have shown that a deficiency in magnesium results in higher blood levels of histamine. Nuts, beans and whole grains, green vegetables and bananas. Most processed foods contain very little of this essential mineral. For more information on this supplement.

Since I got a PM asking about the enzymes, I thought I would add to Daniels thread. Here is the site that should get you started

 

http://www.enzymestuff.com/

 

This is the site I ordered from

 

http://216.114.78.114/webcenter/sites/hni/

 

When you get to the opening page, click on products, in the upper left.

 

I ordered the AFP Peptizyde and Zymeprime. I shouldn't say ordered, when I called to order, they offered to send me free samples. They sent about 10 capsules of each. Have to get kids up for school. Will post more later.

 

Daniel is also considering these for his son, and knows as much as I do about it.
