High Potency Systemic Enzyme Formula - Enhanced With Turmeric & White Willow Bark



The smart choice for Digestive and Systemic Enzyme Supplements!

Systemic Enzyme Functions – Innerzyme Pain & Inflammation Blend

Natural Anti-Inflammatory

Innerzyme's Pain & Inflammation Blend is a systemic enzyme formula of proteolytic enzymes, herbs and bioflavonoids specially formulated to support the body's naturally inflammatory response. Much different than the role of a digestive enzyme, a systemic enzyme begins to break down in the small intestine and focuses on the reduction of pain and inflammation throughout the entire body. Inflammation is a reaction by the immune system to an irritation which often results in pain, swelling and tenderness.*

Proteolytic enzymes or "protein eating enzymes" are the first line of defense against body-wide inflammation, which may begin in the stomach and expand throughout the body to all the major organs.

Scar Tissue and Excess Fibrin

Proteolytic enzymes eat away scar tissue and reduce the development of excess fibrin throughout the body. Fibrin is just another name for scar tissue, which is also referred to as fibrosis. When the body is healthy and producing an efficient amount of enzymes, most cuts, scraps and wounds leave small, nearly invisible scars.*

How come our cuts, scraps and wounds do not heal so well the older we get and they often leave a thick and very visible scar? The answer is enzymes! Before a person reaches their late twenties, the body can afford to disperse out an ample amount of enzymes to travel to the site where excess scar tissue is present. Those enzymes, which are naturally produced by the body when a person is younger, will eat away the excess scar tissue leaving a small trace of a scar. However, as we age, our enzyme pool starts to decrease and we naturally have less and fewer enzymes present to help rid the body of excess scar tissue.

The good news is...if we replenish our lost enzymes through supplementation, we can fill our enzyme pool back up so the body can regulate like it used to years ago and in turn reduce the amount of excess fibrin throughout the body.*

Blood Cleansing Properties

Systemic enzymes may help clean excess fibrin and exogenous material from the blood. Cleaner blood means better nutrient absorption and improved circulation. So how do these toxins and fibrin get into the blood in the first place? The organs and cells in our bodies dispose of these materials in our blood which can cause clots, poor circulation, blood thickening and other health issues.*

When implementing an enzyme regimen, large exogenous materials and fibrin in the blood can be broken down dramatically allowing the material to flow through the body and pass into the bowel faster.

So systemic enzymes have blood-cleansing properties but does that mean they are blood thinners?

The answer is no. Since a systemic enzyme will rid the body of toxins and fibrin in the blood making it cleaner, they body is able to absorb more nutrients. So you may have read some warnings about not taking asystemic enzyme if you are on blood thinners and the reason boils down to cleaner blood and better absorption. Since the blood is cleaner, some people have reported an increase in the effectiveness of prescription drugs so there may be a chance of thinning the blood too much by pairing an enzyme supplement with a prescription blood thinner. Either way, it is best to take precaution and talk to your doctor if you are beginning the Innerzyme Pain & Inflammation Blend and you are currently taking a blood thinner.

Supports Healthy Immune System Functioning

Systemic enzymes assist the body to balance the immune system and restore a steady state to the body. A low functioning immune system means the body is more susceptible to disease. However, an extremely high functioning immune system will often create antibodies that attach the tissues within the body such as with autoimmune diseases or arthritis. Supplementation of a well balanced systemic enzyme formula like Innerzyme's Pain & Inflammation Blend may help regulate the immune system and eat away at those antibodies that are attacking the body's tissue creating a disease state within the body.*

When it comes to viruses, protein cell walls build up around a virus and then bond together and replicate to cause harm throughout the body. The body knows what the body needs and these harmful protein walls are definitely not needed. The good thing about enzymes is they already know what protein to leave alone and what "foreign" protein to attack and eat away in order to inhibit the replication of the virus.*

Proprietary Enzyme Blend

Innerzyme’s proprietary blend contains pancreatin, papain, bromelain, trypsin and chymotrypsin and is designed to support the body’s natural response to inflammation. When taken on an empty stomach, it is believed that enzymes will help manage inflammation by supporting healthy blood flow to the irritated area.

Bromelain*

"Bromelain is most notable for its effectiveness in the reduction of inflammation and decreasing swelling, but the scope of its benefits continues to increase. As a natural anti-inflammatory enzyme, bromelain has many uses. Arthritis patients may reduce the swelling that causes joint pain by taking bromelain. Bromelain may also be helpful for the pain, numbness, tingling, aching, and loss of motor and sensory function in the fingers resulting from carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

The protease enzyme is beneficial in reducing the clumping of platelets (small platelike bodies in the blood), the formation of plaques in the arteries, and the formation of blood clots. All these effects help to prevent and treat cardiovascular disease. Bromelain has also been discovered to have anti-tumor action, as well as helping the body absorb medications.

Bromelain has been found useful in the reduction of swelling and congestion in the affected tissue after an athletic injury or surgery. Bromelain is helpful to people with colds due to its ability to reduce mucus and keep it moving out of the body" (1).*

Chymotrypsin*

"Chymotrypsin is a digestive enzyme and is naturally produced by the pancreas in the human body. Generally, the primary uses of chymotrypsin are as a digestive aid and as an anti-inflammatory agent.

As an anti-inflammatory agent, the chymotrypsin and the other protease enzymes prevent tissue damage during inflammation and the formation of fibrin clots. Protease enzymes participate in the breakdown of fibrin in a process called fibrinolysis. Fibrin causes a wall to form around an area of inflammation, resulting in the blockage of blood and lymph vessels, which leads to swelling" (2).*

Rutin*

Rutin is a potent bioflavonoid that is derived from the fava tree. Bioflavonoids are water-soluble plant pigments, naturally occurring chemical compounds important to maintaining optimal health. The term bioflavonoid refers to many different ingredients and includes hesperidin, citrus bioflavonoids, rutin, quercetin, to mention a few. They perform a wide range of functions; for example they protect capillaries, prevent bruising, and provide support for a number of other biological functions.*

White Willow Bark*

White Willow (Salix alba) is a tall tree that thrives in damp areas and is native to Europe. It has been used since ancient times for its pain relieving and fever reducing properties, and has regained prominence in modern times as an alternative to synthetic forms of aspirin. White Willow is also thought to help support a healthy inflammatory response. (4)*

Turmeric*

Turmeric (Curcuma longa) is an herb that has been used in Ayurvedic Medicine for many years. It is a member of the ginger family. Turmeric possesses antioxidant compounds known as curcuminoids, of which curcumin has been found to be most potent. These compounds help prevent the buildup of excess free radicals. They also neutralize existing free radicals by scavenging them. It also has been shown to support healthy liver function, digestion and inflammatory response. (3)*

Recommended Dosage

Take 2 tablets, twice daily on an empty stomach with water. Depending on the severity of inflammation, this dosage may be increased to 8 tablets daily.
