Wobenzym N

[michelew]

Has anyone ever heard of or tried Wobenzym N? I went to my health store today, and the nutritionist told me that this is an excellent supplement for anyone suffering from autoimmune diseases. She said that it helps tremendously with inflammation.

 

Any input would be greatly appreciated. :-)

 

Thanks, Michele

I have not tried it, but here is some information I found:

Wobenzym is mentioned by FDA--they warned mfg about their marketing claims:

 

http://www.fda.gov/ICECI/EnforcementActions/WarningLetters/2010/ucm229214.htm

 

Here is a good site with a few drug interactions to avoid if you try this one (abx are mentioned in that this may cause abx have higher absorption leading to higher blood levels):

Here are two pubmed articles about a studies of the key components in Wobenzym (I did not read it):

If I find anymore I will let you know. If you try it and it works well for you, please let us know .

Thanks, Mayzoo. I read some of the articles you suggested, and have decided not to try. I did read that it can interact with abx, and can cause unsafe levels in the bloodstream. Thanks for the info. Michele :-)
