Frequently Asked Questions
What are enzymes?
Enzymes are found in every cell of every living plant and animal, including humans. Enzymes are biocatalysts; which means that they either begin a reaction or cause a reaction to speed up. Without enzymes life would not exist.
How do enzymes work?
Enzymes work by virtue of their shape. An enzyme molecule can be compared, in shape at least, to many short strings of pearls (amino acids) strung together. This long string folds in on itself as certain sequences of amino acids (pearls) are more attracted to each other than to other sequences, thus giving the enzymes a specific shape.
At one point on the surface of this string of pearls there exists something, which looks like a keyhole. This is called the "active site" on the enzyme. When matched with its specific coenzyme (a vitamin, mineral, or trace element) this "lock" has the exact inverse contour of the "key" which is contained in the molecule of the enzyme's "substrate" (the molecule that the enzyme wants to transform into a different molecule). When the substrate appears, it inserts the "key" into the "lock." The molecular structure of the substrate is transformed into a different molecular structure and both enzyme and the newly transformed molecule go on their merry ways.
What is a digestive enzyme?
A digestive enzyme breaks down the proteins, fats and carbohydrates in food during the digestive process allowing the body to better utilize the food you eat.
What is a proteolytic enzyme?
The proteolytic enzyme digests protein. Some examples of proteolytic enzymes are protease, serrapeptase, bromelain, and papain.
What is a lipase enzyme?
Lipase enzymes digest fat.
What is an amylase enzyme?
Amylase enzymes digest carbohydrates.
What is systemic enzyme therapy?
Systemic enzyme therapy is utilizing enzyme supplementation to increase the enzymes throughout your body to assist in restoring the body to health
What else are enzymes used for?
Enzymes are widely used in the food industry. Enzymes are also essential in the manufacture of beer.
Are enzymes considered "anti-inflammatory drugs"?
Proteolytic Enzymes are considered anti-inflammatory agents.
What is the recommended dosage of Vitälzym?
The recommended dosage to be taken at least 45 minutes prior to or after meals is 3 capsules, once a day. However, since each individual is different, a higher or lower dosage may be appropriate for each individual. It is important to understand each person's "activation" dosage. See the information from Dr. Wong on the activation dosage.
How long before the Vitälzym takes effect?
It may depend on the individual's physiological make-up. Everyone is different. You can achieve positive effects in a period of 3 days to 2 weeks. Taking the right activation dosage is critical to the success of the product.
What claims do you make about the effectiveness of Vitälzym?
The FDA does not allow the nutraceutical industry to make claims about their products without scientific studies being performed that substantiate the claims. Our customers can share their experience with the product but World Nutrition does not make specific claims.
Are there any side effects at all with your product?
We currently have no documented evidence of any adverse side effects based on the use of Vitälzym. You should not take this product without the consent of your physician if you are currently taking anti-coagulants, commonly known as blood thinners. .
Are there any compatibility issues with other nutraceuticals?
No. In fact, since vitamins are coenzymes and minerals are cofactors to enzymes, enzymes are needed in the body for them to be able to have their full effect. In addition, the vitamins and minerals assist the enzymes. Thus, systemic enzyme use enhances the effect of other supplementation programs.
Are there any compatibility issues with any prescribed drugs?
Yes. Customers using anti-coagulants, or blood thinners, should not use Vitälzym without the consent of their physician. The enzymes enhance the effects of the blood thinning medications making them stronger.
Why do you call Vitälzym a vegetarian product?
The enzymes used in Vitälzym are plant derived with no animal products. This allows everyone, including strict vegetarians, to take Vitälzym. Some enzyme products use ingredients that are derived from bovine (cows).
How does World Nutrition grow their enzymes? Is the process ecologically safe? Does the process use any chemicals?
The enzymes in Vitalzym come from two sources; the fruit enzymes along with the Amla and Rutin are from fruit grown in organic plantations, and the protease and serrapeptase are lab grown in a protein (fungus) medium. The enzymes are then extracted from the medium so that not a trace of fungus is left on the enzyme and the purity is assured.
What is serrapeptase and where does it come from?
Serrapeptase is a powerful proteolytic enzyme. In Japan, Takada sells serrapeptase as a registered anti-inflammatory medicine under the product name Dazen. Serrapeptase is laboratory grown
Does weather affect your product?
Exposure to heat over 150º for an extended period of time can destroy the enzymes. Store your Vitälzym in a cool, dry place, with the lid of the bottle tightly closed.
Where is Vitälzym made?
World Nutrition uses ingredients from the purest sources. Vitälzym is manufactured at World Nutrition's facility in Phoenix, AZ.
Vitalzym Ingredients
Proteolytic enzyme (Protease)
The term "proteolytic" refers to all enzymes that digest protein. Other classes of enzymes include Amylase a digestive enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates and Lipase a digestive enzyme that breaks down fat during the digestive process. Each of these help in the digestion of food which in turn helps with absorption of those essential nutrients in the diet. In the body, proteolytic digestive enzymes are produced in the pancreas, but supplemental forms of enzymes may come from fungal or bacterial sources, extraction from the pancreas of livestock animals (trypsin/chymotrypsin) or extraction from plants (such as papain from the papaya and Bromelain from pineapples). The primary uses of proteolytic enzymes in dietary supplements are used as digestive enzymes, anti-inflammatory agents and pain relievers.
There are a number of clinical trials showing the benefit of using oral proteolytic enzymes as a digestive aid. Proteolytic enzymes are also theorized to help reduce symptoms of food allergies and as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases
Perhaps the strongest evidence for benefits of proteolytic enzyme supplements come from numerous European studies showing various enzyme blends to be effective in accelerating recovery from exercise and injury in sportsmen as well as tissue repair in patients following surgery. In one study of footballers suffering from ankle injuries, proteolytic enzyme supplements accelerated healing and got players back on the field about 50% faster than athletes assigned to receive a placebo tablet(1). A handful of other small trials in athletes have shown enzymes can help reduce inflammation, speed healing of bruises and other tissue injuries (including fractures) and reduce overall recovery time when compared to athletes taking a placebo(2-8). In patients recovering from facial and various reconstructive surgeries, treatment with proteolytic enzymes significantly reduced swelling, bruising and stiffness compared to placebo groups (9-11).
Serrapeptase
Serrapeptase, also known as Serratia peptidase, is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the non-pathogenic enterobacteria Serratia E15. The enzyme is found naturally in the intestine of the silkworm, which is used by the silkworm to dissolve the cocoon and emerge as a moth. When consumed in unprotected tablets or capsules, the enzyme is destroyed by acid in the stomach. However, when enterically coated the enzyme passes through the stomach unchanged, and can be absorbed in the intestine.
It has many clinical uses including:
as an anti-inflammatory agent (particularly for post traumatic swelling)
for Fibrocystic breast disease
for Bronchitis (Serrapeptase loosens and expels mucous)
Serrapeptase digests dead tissue, blood clots, cysts, and arterial plaque. The late German physician Dr. Hans Nieper, used serrapeptase to treat arterial blockage in his coronary patients. Clinical studies show that serrapeptase induces fibrinolytic, anti-inflammatory and anti-edemic (prevents swelling and fluid retention) activity in a number of tissues, and that its anti-inflammatory effects are superior to other proteolytic enzymes(12). Besides reducing inflammation, one of serrapeptase's most profound benefits is reduction of pain, due to its ability to block the release of pain-inducing amines from inflamed tissues(13) Physicians throughout Europe and Asia have recognized the anti-inflammatory and pain-blocking benefits of this naturally occurring substance and are using it in treatment as an alternative to salicylates, ibuprofen, and other NSAIDs(14).
Bromelain & Papain
Both Bromelain and Papain are plant derived proteolytic enzymes. Bromelain, also known as bromelin, is a protein-digesting enzyme extracted from the flesh and stem of the pineapple plant, Ananas comosus. Papain, is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the papaya plant, Carica papaya. 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) (15,16). Prevention of the adhesiveness of platelets to endothelial cell walls was accomplished with 0.1 mcg/ml of Bromelian(16a). Thus the benefit of bromelain occurs over a broad range of doses, and even small amounts may be beneficial to anyone at risk to thrombotic heart attack or stroke. Papain has been shown to be effective in preventing burn wound infection and helping remove dead cells(17). Papain is also used for the following:
Defibrinating wounds in hospitals
Preventing cornea scar deformation
Used in treatments of jellyfish and insect stings
To treat edemas, inflammatory processes, and in the acceleration of wound healing
In low doses as an indigestion medicine
Papain has been used to treat ulcers, dissolve membranes in diphtheria and reduce swelling, fever and adhesions after surgery.
Amla
Also known as Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis) is the richest source of Vitamin C. It also contains tannic acid, glucose, protein, cellulose and Calcium. Amla is useful for stomach problems, it is antipyretic, hair tonic and nerve brain tonic. It's also useful in anemia, hyperacidity and in gynecological problems and epistaxis. Amla is considered to have restorative and preventive properties.
Rutin
Is one of the many existing Flavonoids. Flavonoids are a class of water-soluble plant pigments. Flavonoids support health by strengthening capillaries and other connective tissue, and some function as anti-inflammatory, antihistaminic, and antiviral agents. Rutin and several other flavonoids may also protect blood vessels. Rutin was shown to stimulate wound healing in rats and augment the tensile strength of scar tissue significantly(18).
Vitälzym Dosing
By: William Wong N.D., Ph.D.,
Member World Sports Medicine Hall of Fame
Finding your "Activation" dose.
When Vitälzym "kicks in"' there will be no doubt in your mind that it is working! An activation dose is the amount of enzymes you need to begin to feel a benefit from the product. The recommended dosage given on the label is meant as a maintenance dose for those without any complaints. Consumers with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Arthritis, Auto Immune Conditions, Fibrosis complaints and Inflammation symptoms need to find the dose at which they begin to feel better. They can then maintain that dose or after 3 months try to reduce the dose and see if the benefits are still felt.
Finding the right dose for you:
Start taking 3 capsules, 3 times a day in-between meals. If in 3 days no benefits are felt, increase the dose to 4 capsules, 3 times a day for 3 days. Continue increasing the number of capsules taken until a benefit is felt. Most will feel the Vitälzym kick in somewhere between 3 and 5, 3 times a day.
There is no toxicity from enzymes, (no LD-50). Some customers who have suffered accidents have been placed on 10 Vitälzym capsules 3 times a day by their doctors for a few weeks until the bulk of their inflammation and its resultant pain are gone. Then they are brought down to a much lower maintenance dose to prevent the formation of scar tissue.
Hemophiliacs and those on prescription blood thinners should not use this or any other systemic enzyme as the enzymes help the drugs to work better and may overly thin the blood.
Vitälzym dosing for common and chronic conditions:
The dose listed on the label is the maintenance dose for those without complaints. The therapeutic doses listed below are generalizations of what has worked for most consumers of Vitälzym with those conditions. Your final activation dose may vary.
Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia:
3 capsules, 3 or 4 times a day.
Auto Immune Conditions:
During periods of remission: 3 capsules, 2 to 3 times a day. During periods of attack: 5 capsules, 3 times a day.
Osteoarthritis:
Severe: 3 capsules, 3 to 4 times a day.
Moderate: 3 capsules, 2 to 3 times a day.

Vitalzym and Detox Reactions
By: William Wong N.D. , Ph.D.,
Member World Sports medicine Hall of Fame
Systemic enzymes have many and varied uses. Most folks are now familiar with the controlling of inflammation, fibrosis and the like but many don’t realize that the enzymes can also help the liver to get rid of the toxins it’s been holding on to.
Our livers are the filters of our body. They remove toxic material and either release it into the colon for disposal or store the toxins in the fat cells of the liver. If the livers fat cells are already overburdened with toxins then the organ will create fat cells elsewhere in the body to store the toxins in. Most people who have never had a liver detox reaction or done a purposeful liver detox have bits of toxic material from pollution, medication and "recreational" drug use socked away in their livers that has been building up their entire life. Not a good state of affairs.
A few natural therapies can cause the liver to "dump" its store of held toxins:
Colon hydrotherapy
Green foods and drinks which are high in sulfur
Fasting
Systemic enzyme use
When liver detox reactions happen they are in fact good things though at rough times the process does not feel good. Feelings of having a body flu, headache, nausea, skin rash, bad breath or body odor can occur. If narcotic or hallucinogenic drug use has been part of the patient’s history then sometimes, as the tiny bits of those substances are released into the blood stream for disposal, symptoms of being on the drugs may once again occur.
The bad feelings develop as a result of the colon not being able to get rid of the toxins as fast as the liver excretes them. All detox reactions should be expedited to assist the body in getting rid of the toxins. The following can be done:
Use of the natural liver-cleansing agent as those available in health food stores
Use of colon hydrotherapy
Increasing the ingestion of green foods and drinks
Increasing water intake
Increase magnesium intake to over 2000 mg a day
In addition, decreasing the amount of enzymes being supplemented can slow the rate of detox.
Liver detoxing reactions are a beneficial cleansing for the body. They might not feel great while we’re going through them, but it will help us to have squeaky-clean insides.

What else are enzymes used for?
Enzymes are widely used in the food industry. Enzymes are also essential in the manufacture of beer.
Are enzymes considered "anti-inflammatory drugs"?
Proteolytic Enzymes are considered anti-inflammatory agents.
What is the recommended dosage of Vitälzym?
The recommended dosage to be taken at least 45 minutes prior to or after meals is 3 capsules, once a day. However, since each individual is different, a higher or lower dosage may be appropriate for each individual. It is important to understand each person's "activation" dosage. See the information from Dr. Wong on the activation dosage.
How long before the Vitälzym takes effect?
It may depend on the individual's physiological make-up. Everyone is different.You can achieve positive effects in a period of 3 days to 2 weeks. Taking the right activation dosage is critical to the success of the product.
What claims do you make about the effectiveness of Vitälzym?
The FDA does not allow the nutraceutical industry to make claims about their products without scientific studies being performed that substantiate the claims. Our customers can share their experience with the product but World Nutrition does not make specific claims.
Are there any side effects at all with your product?
We currently have no documented evidence of any adverse side effects based on the use of Vitälzym. You should not take this product without the consent of your physician if you are currently taking anti-coagulants, commonly known as blood thinners. .
Are there any compatibility issues with other nutraceuticals?
No. In fact, since vitamins are coenzymes and minerals are cofactors to enzymes, enzymes are needed in the body for them to be able to have their full effect. In addition, the vitamins and minerals assist the enzymes. Thus, systemic enzyme use enhances the effect of other supplementation programs.
Are there any compatibility issues with any prescribed drugs?
Yes. Customers using anti-coagulants, or blood thinners, should not use Vitälzym without the consent of their physician. The enzymes enhance the effects of the blood thinning medications making them stronger.
Why do you call Vitälzym a vegetarian product?
The enzymes used in Vitälzym are plant derived with no animal products. This allows everyone, including strict vegetarians, to take Vitälzym. Some enzyme products use ingredients that are derived from bovine (cows).
How does World Nutrition grow their enzymes? Is the process ecologically safe? Does the process use any chemicals?
The enzymes in Vitalzym come from two sources; the fruit enzymes along with the Amla and Rutin are from fruit grown in organic plantations, and the protease and serrapeptase are lab grown in a protein (fungus) medium. The enzymes are then extracted from the medium so that not a trace of fungus is left on the enzyme and the purity is assured.
What is serrapeptase and where does it come from?
Serrapeptase is a powerful proteolytic enzyme. In Japan, Takada sells serrapeptase as a registered anti-inflammatory medicine under the product name Dazen. Serrapeptase is laboratory grown
Does weather affect your product?
Exposure to heat over 150º for an extended period of time can destroy the enzymes. Store your Vitälzym in a cool, dry place, with the lid of the bottle tightly closed.
Where is Vitälzym made?
World Nutrition uses ingredients from the purest sources. Vitälzym is manufactured at World Nutrition's facility in Phoenix, AZ.
Vitalzym Ingredients
Proteolytic enzyme (Protease)
The term "proteolytic" refers to all enzymes that digest protein. Other classes of enzymes include Amylase a digestive enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates and Lipase a digestive enzyme that breaks down fat during the digestive process. Each of these help in the digestion of food which in turn helps with absorption of those essential nutrients in the diet. In the body, proteolytic digestive enzymes are produced in the pancreas, but supplemental forms of enzymes may come from fungal or bacterial sources, extraction from the pancreas of livestock animals (trypsin/chymotrypsin) or extraction from plants (such as papain from the papaya and Bromelain from pineapples). The primary uses of proteolytic enzymes in dietary supplements are used as digestive enzymes, anti-inflammatory agents and pain relievers.
There are a number of clinical trials showing the benefit of using oral proteolytic enzymes as a digestive aid. Proteolytic enzymes are also theorized to help reduce symptoms of food allergies and as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases
Perhaps the strongest evidence for benefits of proteolytic enzyme supplements come from numerous European studies showing various enzyme blends to be effective in accelerating recovery from exercise and injury in sportsmen as well as tissue repair in patients following surgery. In one study of footballers suffering from ankle injuries, proteolytic enzyme supplements accelerated healing and got players back on the field about 50% faster than athletes assigned to receive a placebo tablet(1). A handful of other small trials in athletes have shown enzymes can help reduce inflammation, speed healing of bruises and other tissue injuries (including fractures) and reduce overall recovery time when compared to athletes taking a placebo(2-8). In patients recovering from facial and various reconstructive surgeries, treatment with proteolytic enzymes significantly reduced swelling, bruising and stiffness compared to placebo groups (9-11).
Serrapeptase
Serrapeptase, also known as Serratia peptidase, is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the non-pathogenic enterobacteria Serratia E15. The enzyme is found naturally in the intestine of the silkworm, which is used by the silkworm to dissolve the cocoon and emerge as a moth. When consumed in unprotected tablets or capsules, the enzyme is destroyed by acid in the stomach. However, when enterically coated the enzyme passes through the stomach unchanged, and can be absorbed in the intestine.
It has many clinical uses including:
as an anti-inflammatory agent (particularly for post traumatic swelling)
for Fibrocystic breast disease
for Bronchitis (Serrapeptase loosens and expels mucous)
Serrapeptase digests dead tissue, blood clots, cysts, and arterial plaque. The late German physician Dr. Hans Nieper, used serrapeptase to treat arterial blockage in his coronary patients. Clinical studies show that serrapeptase induces fibrinolytic, anti-inflammatory and anti-edemic (prevents swelling and fluid retention) activity in a number of tissues, and that its anti-inflammatory effects are superior to other proteolytic enzymes(12). Besides reducing inflammation, one of serrapeptase's most profound benefits is reduction of pain, due to its ability to block the release of pain-inducing amines from inflamed tissues(13) Physicians throughout Europe and Asia have recognized the anti-inflammatory and pain-blocking benefits of this naturally occurring substance and are using it in treatment as an alternative to salicylates, ibuprofen, and other NSAIDs(14).
Bromelain & Papain
Both Bromelain and Papain are plant derived proteolytic enzymes. Bromelain, also known as bromelin, is a protein-digesting enzyme extracted from the flesh and stem of the pineapple plant, Ananas comosus. Papain, is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the papaya plant, Carica papaya. 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) (15,16). Prevention of the adhesiveness of platelets to endothelial cell walls was accomplished with 0.1 mcg/ml of Bromelian(16a). Thus the benefit of bromelain occurs over a broad range of doses, and even small amounts may be beneficial to anyone at risk to thrombotic heart attack or stroke. Papain has been shown to be effective in preventing burn wound infection and helping remove dead cells(17). Papain is also used for the following:
Defibrinating wounds in hospitals
Preventing cornea scar deformation
Used in treatments of jellyfish and insect stings
To treat edemas, inflammatory processes, and in the acceleration of wound healing
In low doses as an indigestion medicine
Papain has been used to treat ulcers, dissolve membranes in diphtheria and reduce swelling, fever and adhesions after surgery.
Amla
Also known as Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis) is the richest source of Vitamin C. It also contains tannic acid, glucose, protein, cellulose and Calcium. Amla is useful for stomach problems, it is antipyretic, hair tonic and nerve brain tonic. It's also useful in anemia, hyperacidity and in gynecological problems and epistaxis. Amla is considered to have restorative and preventive properties.
Rutin
Is one of the many existing Flavonoids. Flavonoids are a class of water-soluble plant pigments. Flavonoids support health by strengthening capillaries and other connective tissue, and some function as anti-inflammatory, antihistaminic, and antiviral agents. Rutin and several other flavonoids may also protect blood vessels. Rutin was shown to stimulate wound healing in rats and augment the tensile strength of scar tissue significantly(18).
Vitälzym Dosing
By: William Wong N.D., Ph.D.,
Member World Sports Medicine Hall of Fame
Finding your "Activation" dose.
When Vitälzym "kicks in"' there will be no doubt in your mind that it is working! An activation dose is the amount of enzymes you need to begin to feel a benefit from the product. The recommended dosage given on the label is meant as a maintenance dose for those without any complaints. Consumers with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Arthritis, Auto Immune Conditions, Fibrosis complaints and Inflammation symptoms need to find the dose at which they begin to feel better. They can then maintain that dose or after 3 months try to reduce the dose and see if the benefits are still felt.
Finding the right dose for you:
Start taking 3 capsules, 3 times a day in-between meals. If in 3 days no benefits are felt, increase the dose to 4 capsules, 3 times a day for 3 days. Continue increasing the number of capsules taken until a benefit is felt. Most will feel the Vitälzym kick in somewhere between 3 and 5, 3 times a day.
There is no toxicity from enzymes, (no LD-50). Some customers who have suffered accidents have been placed on 10 Vitälzym capsules 3 times a day by their doctors for a few weeks until the bulk of their inflammation and its resultant pain are gone. Then they are brought down to a much lower maintenance dose to prevent the formation of scar tissue.
Hemophiliacs and those on prescription blood thinners should not use this or any other systemic enzyme as the enzymes help the drugs to work better and may overly thin the blood.
Vitälzym dosing for common and chronic conditions:
The dose listed on the label is the maintenance dose for those without complaints. The therapeutic doses listed below are generalizations of what has worked for most consumers of Vitälzym with those conditions. Your final activation dose may vary.
Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia:
3 capsules, 3 or 4 times a day.
Auto Immune Conditions:
During periods of remission: 3 capsules, 2 to 3 times a day. During periods of attack: 5 capsules, 3 times a day.
Osteoarthritis:
Severe: 3 capsules, 3 to 4 times a day.
Moderate: 3 capsules, 2 to 3 times a day.
Mild: 3 capsules, 2 times a day.
Opening Circulation:
5 capsules, 3 times a day for 1 to 3 months; then 3 capsules, 3 times a day thereafter.
New Sprains and Strains:
Severe to Moderate: 5 capsules, 3 times a day for one week; then 3 capsules, 3 times a day.
Chronic Pain:
Severe: 5 capsules, 2 or 3 times a day.
Moderate: 3 capsules, 3 times a day.
Mild: 3 capsules, 2 times a day.

Vitalzym and Detox Reactions
By: William Wong N.D. , Ph.D.,
Member World Sports medicine Hall of Fame
Systemic enzymes have many and varied uses. Most folks are now familiar with the controlling of inflammation, fibrosis and the like but many don’t realize that the enzymes can also help the liver to get rid of the toxins it’s been holding on to.
Our livers are the filters of our body. They remove toxic material and either release it into the colon for disposal or store the toxins in the fat cells of the liver. If the livers fat cells are already overburdened with toxins then the organ will create fat cells elsewhere in the body to store the toxins in. Most people who have never had a liver detox reaction or done a purposeful liver detox have bits of toxic material from pollution, medication and "recreational" drug use socked away in their livers that has been building up their entire life. Not a good state of affairs.
A few natural therapies can cause the liver to "dump" its store of held toxins:
Colon hydrotherapy
Green foods and drinks which are high in sulfur
Fasting
Systemic enzyme use
When liver detox reactions happen they are in fact good things though at rough times the process does not feel good. Feelings of having a body flu, headache, nausea, skin rash, bad breath or body odor can occur. If narcotic or hallucinogenic drug use has been part of the patient’s history then sometimes, as the tiny bits of those substances are released into the blood stream for disposal, symptoms of being on the drugs may once again occur.
The bad feelings develop as a result of the colon not being able to get rid of the toxins as fast as the liver excretes them. All detox reactions should be expedited to assist the body in getting rid of the toxins. The following can be done:
Use of the natural liver-cleansing agent as those available in health food stores
Use of colon hydrotherapy
Increasing the ingestion of green foods and drinks
Increasing water intake
Increase magnesium intake to over 2000 mg a day
In addition, decreasing the amount of enzymes being supplemented can slow the rate of detox.
Liver detoxing reactions are a beneficial cleansing for the body. They might not feel great while we’re going through them, but it will help us to have squeaky-clean insides. |

*To treat edemas, inflammatory processes, and in the acceleration of wound healing
*In low doses as an indigestion medicine
*Papain has been used to treat ulcers, dissolve membranes in diphtheria and reduce swelling, fever and adhesions after surgery
Amla
Also known as Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis) is the richest source of Vitamin C. It also contains tannic acid, glucose, protein, cellulose and Calcium. Amla is useful for stomach problems, it is antipyretic, hair tonic and nerve brain tonic. It’s also useful in anemia, hyperacidity and in gynecological problems and epistaxis. Amla is considered to have restorative and preventive properties
Rutin
Is one of the many existing Flavonoids. Flavonoids are a class of water-soluble plant pigments. Flavonoids support health by strengthening capillaries and other connective tissue, and some function as anti-inflammatory, antihistaminic, and antiviral agents. Rutin and several other flavonoids may also protect blood vessels. Rutin was shown to stimulate wound healing in rats and augment the tensile strength of scar tissue significantly(18).
Dosage
As a dietary supplement, take 3 capsules daily, at least 45 minutes before meals or as recommended by your health care professional.
Finding your "Activation" dose:
When Vitalzym "kicks in" there will be no doubt in your mind that it is working. An activation dose is the amount of enzymes you need to begin to feel a benefit from the product. The recommended dosage given on the label is meant as a maintenance dose for those without any complaints. Consumers with Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Arthritis, Auto Immune Conditions, Fibrosis complaints and Inflammation symptoms need to find the dose at which they begin to feel better. Then they can maintain that dose or after 3 months try to reduce the dose and see if the benefits are still felt.
Finding the right dose for you:
Start taking 3 capsules 3 times a day, in-between meals. If in 3 days no benefits are felt, increase the dose to 4 capsules 3 times a day, for 3 days. Continue increasing the number of capsules taken until benefits are felt. Most will feel the Vitalzym kick in somewhere between 3 and 5 capsules, 3 times a day.
There is no toxicity from enzymes, (no LD-50). Some customers who have suffered accidents have been placed on 10 Vitalzym capsules 3 times a day by their doctors for a few weeks until the bulk of their inflammation and its resultant pain are gone. Then they are brought down to a much lower maintenance dose to prevent the formation of scar tissue.
Hemophiliacs and those prescription blood thinners should not use this or any other systemic enzyme as the enzymes help the drugs work better and may overly thin the blood.
Vitalzym dosing for common and chronic conditions:
The dose listed on the label is the maintenance dose for those without complaints. The therapeutic doses listed below are generalizations of what has worked for most consumers of Vitalzym with those conditions. Your final activation dose may vary.
Chronic Fatigue and Fibromyalgia:
3 capsules 3 or 4 times a day.
Auto Immune Conditions:
During periods of remission 3 capsules 2 times to 3 times a day. During periods of attack 5 capsules 3 times a day.
Osteo Arthritis:
Severe: 3 capsules 3 to 4 times a day
Moderate: 3 capsules 3 to 3 times a day
Mild: 3 capsules 2 times a day
Opening Circulation:
5 capsules 3 times a day for 1 to 3 months then 3 capsules 3 times a day thereafter.
New Sprains and Strains:

Vitalzym and Detox Reactions
By: William Wong N.D. , Ph.D.,
Member World Sports medicine Hall of Fame
Systemic enzymes have many and varied uses. Most folks are now familiar with the controlling of inflammation, fibrosis and the like but many don’t realize that the enzymes can also help the liver to get rid of the toxins it’s been holding on to.
Our livers are the filters of our body. They remove toxic material and either release it into the colon for disposal or store the toxins in the fat cells of the liver. If the livers fat cells are already overburdened with toxins then the organ will create fat cells elsewhere in the body to store the toxins in. Most people who have never had a liver detox reaction or done a purposeful liver detox have bits of toxic material from pollution, medication and "recreational" drug use socked away in their livers that has been building up their entire life. Not a good state of affairs.
A few natural therapies can cause the liver to "dump" its store of held toxins:
Colon hydrotherapy
Green foods and drinks which are high in sulfur
Fasting
Systemic enzyme use
When liver detox reactions happen they are in fact good things though at rough times the process does not feel good. Feelings of having a body flu, headache, nausea, skin rash, bad breath or body odor can occur. If narcotic or hallucinogenic drug use has been part of the patient’s history then sometimes, as the tiny bits of those substances are released into the blood stream for disposal, symptoms of being on the drugs may once again occur.
The bad feelings develop as a result of the colon not being able to get rid of the toxins as fast as the liver excretes them. All detox reactions should be expedited to assist the body in getting rid of the toxins. The following can be done:
Use of the natural liver-cleansing agent as those available in health food stores
Use of colon hydrotherapy
Increasing the ingestion of green foods and drinks
Increasing water intake
Increase magnesium intake to over 2000 mg a day
In addition, decreasing the amount of enzymes being supplemented can slow the rate of detox.
Liver detoxing reactions are a beneficial cleansing for the body. They might not feel great while we’re going through them, but it will help us to have squeaky-clean insides. |

Product Details
Vitalzym provides the enzymes needed for each of the millions of biochemical reactions that make life possible. Without enzymes, life could not exist. As we age, our body’s natural production of enzymes may slow or stop. Supplementation with Vitalzym along with proper diet and exercise helps to maintain normal enzyme levels, balancing your body’s own repair mechanisms.* Vitalzym is natural. It contains no animal derivatives, artificial flavors, artificial colors, yeast or gluten. Vitalzym?is also lactose free and contains no harmful talc. World Nutrition has teamed up with leading enzyme researchers to develop and produce the fabulous new Vitalzym Vitalzym is the clear choice for anyone who uses systemic enzymes.
Ingredients
Proteolytic enzyme (Protease)
The term "proteolytic" refers to all enzymes that digest protein. Other classes of enzymes include Amylase a digestive enzyme that breaks down carbohydrates and Lipase a digestive enzyme that breaks down fat during the digestive process. Each of these help in the digestion of food which in turn helps with absorption of those essential nutrients in the diet. In the body, proteolytic digestive enzymes are produced in the pancreas, but supplemental forms of enzymes may come from fungal or bacterial sources, extraction from the pancreas of livestock animals (trypsin/chymotrypsin) or extraction from plants (such as papain from the papaya and Bromelain from pineapples). The primary uses of proteolytic enzymes in dietary supplements are used as digestive enzymes, anti-inflammatory agents and pain relievers.
There are a number of clinical trials showing the benefit of using oral proteolytic enzymes as a digestive aid. Proteolytic enzymes are also theorized to help reduce symptoms of food allergies and as a treatment for rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases
Perhaps the strongest evidence for benefits of proteolytic enzyme supplements come from numerous European studies showing various enzyme blends to be effective in accelerating recovery from exercise and injury in sportsmen as well as tissue repair in patients following surgery. In one study of footballers suffering from ankle injuries, proteolytic enzyme supplements accelerated healing and got players back on the field about 50% faster than athletes assigned to receive a placebo tablet(1). A handful of other small trials in athletes have shown enzymes can help reduce inflammation, speed healing of bruises and other tissue injuries (including fractures) and reduce overall recovery time when compared to athletes taking a placebo(2-8). In patients recovering from facial and various reconstructive surgeries, treatment with proteolytic enzymes significantly reduced swelling, bruising and stiffness compared to placebo groups (9-11).
Serrapeptase
Serrapeptase, also known as Serratia peptidase, is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the non-pathogenic enterobacteria Serratia E15. The enzyme is found naturally in the intestine of the silkworm, which is used by the silkworm to dissolve the cocoon and emerge as a moth. When consumed in unprotected tablets or capsules, the enzyme is destroyed by acid in the stomach. However, when enterically coated the enzyme passes through the stomach unchanged, and can be absorbed in the intestine.
It has many clinical uses including:
~ as an anti-inflammatory agent (particularly for post traumatic swelling)
~for Fibrocystic breast disease
~for Bronchitis (Serrapeptase loosens and expels mucous)
Serrapeptase digests dead tissue, blood clots, cysts, and arterial plaque. The late German physician Dr. Hans Nieper, used serrapeptase to treat arterial blockage in his coronary patients. Clinical studies show that serrapeptase induces fibrinolytic, anti-inflammatory and anti-edemic (prevents swelling and fluid retention) activity in a number of tissues, and that its anti-inflammatory effects are superior to other proteolytic enzymes(12). Besides reducing inflammation, one of serrapeptase’s most profound benefits is reduction of pain, due to its ability to block the release of pain-inducing amines from inflamed tissues(13) Physicians throughout Europe and Asia have recognized the anti-inflammatory and pain-blocking benefits of this naturally occurring substance and are using it in treatment as an alternative to salicylates, ibuprofen, and other NSAIDs(14).
Bromelain & Papain
Both Bromelain and Papain are plant derived proteolytic enzymes. Bromelain, also known as bromelin, is a protein-digesting enzyme extracted from the flesh and stem of the pineapple plant, Ananas comosus. Papain, is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the papaya plant, Carica papaya. 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) (15,16). Prevention of the adhesiveness of platelets to endothelial cell walls was accomplished with 0.1 mcg/ml of Bromelian(16a). Thus the benefit of bromelain occurs over a broad range of doses, and even small amounts may be beneficial to anyone at risk to thrombotic heart attack or stroke. Papain has been shown to be effective in preventing burn wound infection and helping remove dead cells(17).
Papain is also used for the following:
*Defibrinating wounds in hospitals
*Preventing cornea scar deformation
*Used in treatments of jellyfish and insect stings
*To treat edemas, inflammatory processes, and in the acceleration of wound healing
*In low doses as an indigestion medicine
*Papain has been used to treat ulcers, dissolve membranes in diphtheria and reduce swelling, fever and adhesions after surgery

Also known as Indian gooseberry (Emblica officinalis) is the richest source of Vitamin C. It also contains tannic acid, glucose, protein, cellulose and Calcium. Amla is useful for stomach problems, it is antipyretic, hair tonic and nerve brain tonic. It’s also useful in anemia, hyperacidity and in gynecological problems and epistaxis.

NattoQ10 60 Capsules - World Nutrition
Enhanced with Reishi Mushroom and formulated with a blend of ingredients shown to promote good heart health, NattoQ10™ offers an alternative to the Coenzyme Q10 (CoQ10) supplements found on every mass discounter’s shelves.
NattoQ10 combines medicinal-grade Japanese CoQ10 with Reishi mushroom and NattoVega™, a proteolytic enzyme derived from Aspergillus Oryzae. In vitro studies show NattoVega to have the same astounding fibrinolytic and thrombolytic qualities as nattokinase, which is widely regarded as the "enzyme of enzymes." This powerful blend makes NattoQ10 the ideal nutritional supplement for total system support, including cardiovascular, antioxidant, and immune enhancement.
Cardiovascular Support
The water-soluble CoQ10 in NattoQ10 allows for increased absorption and sustained retention of the product’s active ingredients. Due to its role in increasing cellular energy, CoQ10 is considered an essential nutrient for cardiac health. It is also thought to prevent free-radical oxidation of LDL cholesterol. Reishi mushroom has been shown to reduce lipids and cholesterol in the blood, and highly thrombolytic enzymes such as NattoVega promote heart health by helping the body prevent and dissolve unhealthy coagulation of the blood.
Antioxidant Enhancement
Researchers have shown that even though our body produces its own antioxidants, the level declines over time because of environmental factors, lifestyle, and the aging process. CoQ10 is known as the "super antioxidant"; it is used to restore antioxidant levels to the healthy range.
The Reishi mushroom contains polysaccharides and triterpenoids that are known to enhance the functioning of the immune system.
Ingredients per 1 capsule:
NattoVega (310 FU) 20mg
Reishi Mushroom 250mg
Hydro Soluble Coenzyme Q10 complex 60mg
Other ingredients: Vegetable capsules, rice bran.

Vitalzym SEB Capsules: 300 Count 500mg - World Nutrition
"We set out to formulate the most effective systemic enzyme blend specifically for cardiovascular health, and our formulation, which contains Sebkinase, has met that challenge."
Specialty Enzymes, 2005
Introduced in 2002, the original Vitalzym has become the leading systemic enzyme formulation recommended for pain, inflammation, and scar tissue. Countless sufferers of chronic conditions, such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, systemic inflammation, fibroids, and many more have found relief with the regular use of Vitalzym. A common benefit of Vitalzym has been its ability to cleanse the blood and reduce vascular inflammation. World Nutrition and Specialty Enzymes have taken the cardiovascular benefits of Vitalzym and harnessed them with nattokinase and other "heart healthy" nutrients to create an enzyme formulation specifically for cardiovascular wellness.
Reduce Fibrin in the Blood
The fibrinolytic enzymes in VitalzymSEB have been shown to have the ability to digest excess fibrin (protein buildup) in the blood, allowing for improved blood viscosity. Stacked red blood cells (or Rouleau effect) often reflect poor protein digestion. Symptoms can include fatigue, stress on the heart, and poor circulation. The ingredients in VitalzymSEB have been shown, using darkfield microscopy, to significantly reduce stacked red blood cells. Below, you can see the effect of proteolytic enzymes reducing stacked red blood cells.
Reduce Vascular Inflammation
Recent studies have shown the correlation between elevated vascular inflammation and heart disease. The enzymes in VitalzymSEB have been shown to reduce the levels of C-Reactive Proteins (inflammation marker).
Frequently Asked Questions
Dosage:
The recommended dosage is 1 capsule 3 times daily. Dr. Wong strongly recommends not to exceed this dosage without strict supervision from your medical provider. This product is not for hemophiliacs or those on anticoagulants.
Is there any toxicity?
There have been no reports of toxicity from the ingredients, however nattokinase can significantly cleanse, therefore thin, the blood. We suggest staying within the recommended dosage.
What is the difference between Vitalzym and VitalzymSEB?
VitalzymSEB was formulated specifically for cardiovascular health. There is a significant amount of nattokinase in the product that may help cleanse arterial plaque. It may also help to reduce fibrin in the circulatory system and help to reduce vascular inflammation. Vitalzym was formulated specifically for pain, inflammation, and systemic fibrosis. Vitalzym’s chief fibrinolytic enzyme is serrapeptase. Serrapeptase has the ability to reduce chronic pain, systemic inflammation and systemic fibrosis.
Is VitalzymSEB stronger than Vitalzym?
According to the formulator, it is impossible to compare the two blends in terms of strength as they were formulated for different results. Vitalzym is better for pain, inflammation and systemic fibrosis. It will also help with cleansing the blood and reducing vascular inflammation. VitalzymSEB is better for cleansing excess fibrin in the blood and possibly arterial plaque
Should I reduce my Vitalzym dosage while taking VitalzymSEB?
There may be a small amount of crossover between Vitalzym and VitalzymSEB. It is recommended to continue with your current Vitalzym dosage if taking for pain and inflammation, however one may be able to slightly reduce their Vitalzym dosage if taking for wellbeing.

VitalzymX Can Help...
To reduce inflammation...
With a potent blend of systemic enzymes that includes the powerful anti-inflammatory qualities of serrapeptase and a highly active form of the enzyme protease, VitalzymX is the most effective natural remedy for muscle joint pain used to reduce inflammation. Its lack of toxicity makes VitalzymX the ideal alternative and natural remedy for muscle joint pain to the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) thought by many to be at the root of more serious health concerns.*
To remove scar tissue and excess fibrin in the blood...
VitalzymX, a fibroids natural remedy, is the one preparation with the ability to reduce both inflammation and scar tissue/fibrosis. Its highly fibrinolytic enzymes lyse (eat away) at the scar tissue that can limit mobility and diminish the functions of other organs. These enzymes also help to improve circulation and reduce the clots formed by excess fibrin in the blood.
To modulate immune function...
Systemic enzymes have proven helpful in the treatment of autoimmune conditions by eating the antibodies the body creates to attack its own tissues. If the immune system is too low, systemic enzymes help to increase immune function by boosting the efficacy of infection-fighting white blood cells. |
