Proteo Enzymes

Proteo Enzymes™ affect cytokine and eicosanoid balance, promote joint comfort, and support the body’s ability to maintain tissue integrity.  It also helps to balance the immune system, support healthy inflammatory levels, and break down microbial biofilms in the body.  

Proteolytic enzymes in Proteo Enzymes may break down proteins and complexes that can be produced as a result of injury and tissue damage. This activity is believed to aid nutrient and oxygen delivery and may help speed the body’s ability to recover and heal. Acid-resistant capsules facilitate systemic delivery of enzymes.*

WHAT ARE SYSTEMIC ENZYMES?

The human body uses enzymes to carry out virtually every metabolic function.  Enzymes are biocatalysts that are used to carry out and speed up the process of chemical reactions in the body. 

We have around 3000 unique enzymes in our bodies that are involved in over 7000 enzymatic reactions.  Supplementing with an array of plant and proteolytic enzymes has been shown to have powerful health benefits.

When the body is injured or under chronic stress, the immune system initiates a protein chain called the Circulating Immune Complex (CIC) that causes pain, redness, and swelling in a particular region.  This is a beneficial process and early on is a necessary part of healing. 

However, inflammation is self-perpetuating and creates further insult and irritation to the region.  Unless there is modulation of the CIC response the inflammation can dominate and overwhelm the region of the body creating painful and degenerative conditions.

Non-Steriodal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAID’s) work by blocking CIC activity in the body.  This affects all CIC’s including those used to maintain the lining of the stomach, intestine, liver, and kidneys. 

This is why long-term NSAID usage causes liver and kidney toxicity, stomach ulcers, and leaky gut syndrome.  Every year 20,000 Americans die from the over-the-counter use of these drugs and another 100,000 end up in the hospital with liver and kidney damage and intestinal bleeding from NSAID usage.

Systemic enzymes work to modulate or coordinate the activity of CIC’s and have no major adverse reactions.  They work as a lock and key mechanism and have an affinity for proinflammatory cytokines such as Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) and C Reactive Protein (CRP).

Immune System Modulations:

Systemic enzymes help to regulate foreign proteins, improve immune function, and balance the inflammatory response.  They also help to enhance tissue healing properties.

Systemic enzymes work to modulate or coordinate the activity of various immune complexes and have no major adverse reactions.  They work as a lock and key mechanism and have an affinity for proinflammatory cytokines such as Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) and C Reactive Protein (CRP).  They also down-regulate the over-activity of Tumor Growth Factor-Beta at the RNA and protein synthesis level.

Anti-Fibrolytic Activity:

Fibrosis is scar tissue that the body produces in the repair process of cuts and wounds on the outer and inner surfaces of our body.  When we have optimal enzyme stores the enzymes are used to clean up fibrolytic tissue in the body. 

However, when our enzyme stores are being depleted due to chronic stress and inflammatory activity the fibrolytic tissue builds up.  When the body has an abundance of fibrolytic tissue built up we end up with things like fibrocystic breast disease, uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and arteriol sclerosis.

Systemic enzymes eat fibrolytic tissue and prevent the fibrosis of our organs and tissues. Proteolytic enzymes work to break down old scar tissue and can improve tissue healing responses. 

Blood Cleansing Activity:

Systemic enzymes help to break down fibrin, dead blood cells, pathogens, and other immune agents that can cause poor circulation.  This helps to cleanse and detoxify the bloodstream and enhances circulation and cellular oxygenation.  

WHY DOES DR. JOCKERS LOVE THIS SUPPLEMENT? 

This supplement is awesome for reducing inflammatory activity in the body.  I use this for myself and athletes as it is powerful for exercise recovery and improving performance. 

I also use this with people who have had an injury, joint problems, and swelling.  It is fantastic for breaking down scar tissue and improving the range of motion in restricted joints.  

This supplement is great for people with microbial overgrowth as the proteolytic enzymes help to metabolize the outer biofilms of the various microbes.  Often, people have trouble reducing microbial overgrowth because of these biofilms.  This supplement can be a huge game changer for someone trying to heal from digestive complaints.
