Has anyone used any enzymes for inflammation? I am thinking about buying Wobenzym for my tendonitis or Repetitive Strain Injury in baseball from pitching and throwing. It was recommended by ex pro baseball player on a messageboard. Anyway can anyone explain how they work in fighting inflammation? Have you ever used them? What were your results?

Answer:

Yes, I've used them before. Enzymes, when taken with food, are used in the metabolic process. However, when taken on an empty stomach, they reduce inflammation as effectively as NSAIDS (Non Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drugs) such as aspirin or Motrin, but without the side effects. They reduce both swelling & inflammation.

If I were you, I'd try them IN ADDITION to taking Liquid Health - Glucosamine. Here's the website for that...

Yes I have used enzymes before.

The enzymes in Wobenzym include bromelain, which works to break down certain proteins in the body. It may seem strange to break down proteins, since they are essential to life. However, some proteins can be quite harmful to joints, organs and tissue. Wobenzym works like a biological "vacuum cleaner" to rid the blood of these harmful proteins.

An enzyme is a protein. A protien of a specific shape or conformation, and some require co-factors in order to work. When you eat an enzyme it will be broken down completely by our digestive enzymes to the individual amino acids that make it up. So the enzymes you eat will be digested like any protien you eat. Save your money, it will do nothing.

Try Vemma, it is a supplement that comes in liquid form, and is the best all natural product that is great for inflammation. There are no side effects that you can get from medications. This stuff is excellent. Oprah has had a doctor on her show talk about this stuff. check out the website, and you can email me if you have any questions. www.myvemma.com/tinacornman
