This concept is not new to enzymology if doctors have been reading leading European medical journals. Unfortunately for North American pain patients, the clinical use of enzymes has been most widely practiced in Germany and its bordering neighbors, including Switzerland, Austria and Russia. Widespread use of enzymes is also being seen in Hungary, Chechoslavakia, and Bulgaria. Its exposure and hence its use in the United States has been limited to topical application of wounds.and for pancreatitis. We're not talking about alternative medicine.
Enzymes are smart medicine and very much part of mainstream medicine elsewhere in the world.
Much like the post-its or even the first photocopiers, that at first were seen to be without a function, so also were enzymes for a long time a tool looking for a new function. They are one of the most important natural medicines today for enhancing the healing response. If taken on an empty stomach, they are well absorbed and get right into the battle of fighting, calming and even reversing the damage done to our body by inflammation, redness, and swelling. Over eight billion dollars is spent annually in America alone in attempts to alleviate pain and suffering related to joint tenderness and inflammation, much of this money spent on ineffective uses or unconventional treatments. We can do better.
