Maltase
Invertase(Sucrase)
Cellulase
Pectinase
Hemicellulase
Phytase
Bromelain

There is so much information on these particular enzymes that it would be impossible to list it all here. This is just a basic overview.

Lipase:
Helps to digest fats. When Lipase is taken in increased quantities, it goes into the blood to help remove excess fatty deposits from the circulatory system.

Clogged arteries (because of excess fatty deposits) can cause high blood pressure and heart problems. But taking Lipase can help clear these clogged veins and arteries. Lipase can also be helpful with weight loss since it helps to maintain correct gall bladder function. .

Lipase helps to convert fats to energy, without keeping them stored for later use.

Lipase has been shown to be beneficial for psoriasis, gallbladder disorders, lymphatic swelling, arterial plaque, extra weight and chronic inflammation.

A shortage of lipase in the body may lead to high cholesterol, difficulty losing weight, arthritis, bladder problems, gall stones, hay fever, prostate problems, heart problems problem with electrolyte balance, cardiovascular problems, obesity, diabetes, cystitis, diarrhea, chronic fatigue, muscle spasms, spastic colon, vertigo (Meniere's Disease),celiac disease, Crohn's disease, cystic fibrosis among other ailments..

When lipas levels are low, light-colored, greasy stools can result (called steatorrhea).

People suffering with a spastic colon may also be lipase deficient.





Protease, Peptase, and Serrapeptase also known as Serratia peptidase:
Helps to digests proteins The proteins are broken down to their basic building blocks - amino acids..

Protease can be helpful for people with food allergies..


Deficiency Symptoms:
Anxiety, low blood sugar, kidney problems, back problems, candida, bacterial and viral infections, constipation, gingivitis, hearing loss, parasites, insomnia, water retention, cancer, hypoglycemia, irritability as well as mood swings. Since it is involved in carrying protein-bound calcium in the blood stream a deficiency may also influence the susceptibility for arthritis, osteoporosis and calcium related diseases..

Protease has helped reducing bruising, swelling and infection in surgery or injuries. It is beneficial in fighting fatigue, anxiety, flu, PMS, fever, colds, fibromyalgia and acne. .

Protease from aspergillis (Aspergillus Niger / Aspergillus oryzae) when taken on an empty stomach, has a very different and powerful function. It is a phenomenal blood cleanser, able to break down protein invadors in the blood stream, so that your immune system is able to destroy them. .

Some common protein invaders are Parasites, fungal forms, and bacteria. Viruses are nucleic acids covered by a protein film. Protease helps keep the intestines protected from these invaders and helps to keep the intestinal system strong..

Dr.Howell, the original enzyme research pioneer, developed enzyme supplements from aspergillis oryzae (a fungus) after finding them more effective than animal-based pancreatic supplements, which subsequent research confirmed. Aspergillis enzymes are also unusually stabile and active under a wide range of pH conditions, which is a very positive point, since animal enzymes (i.e., pepsin, pancreatin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, pancrelipase, and pancreatic amylase etc.), normally require special pH conditions, often lacking in impaired health conditions.

Clinical studies show that serrapeptase is a strong anti-inflammatory (particularly for post traumatic swelling) and anti-edemic (prevents swelling and fluid retention) and that its anti-inflammatory effects are superior to other proteolytic enzymes.

Because one of serrapeptase's most profound benefits is reduction of pain, physicians throughout Europe and Asia are using it in treatment as an alternative to salicylates and ibuprofen.


Hans A. Nieper, M.D., The late German physician used serrapeptase to treat arterial blockage in his coronary patients. Nieper's research indicated that the protein-dissolving action of serrapeptase will gradually break down atherosclerotic plaques. It has been shown to be more effective and quicker than EDTA chelation treatments in removing arterial plaque.

Research has shown that serrapeptase has been used in the successful treatment of fibrocystic breast disease. Serrapeptase has also been shown in clinical studies to benefit chronic sinusitis sufferers, due to its inflammatory properties, as well as for Bronchitis (Serrapeptase loosens and expels mucous).

In clinical studies Serrapeptase has been shown to digests dead tissue, blood clots, cysts, protect against stroke, and causes varicose veins to shrink or diminish.




Amylase:

Helps the digestive tract digest starches and sugars.

Amylase could be considered a natural antihistamine. It is very effective in helping with the symptoms of allergic reactions to such things as asthma, emphysema, insect bites, insect bite, pollen irritation, or contact with poison oak, ivy, or sumac.

A deficiency of amylase may occur if your diet is excessively high in carbohydrates, since this enzyme would be used up by the body at a tremendous rate. Symptoms may include, skin problems (rashes, hives, herpes, canker sores), depression and mood swings (including PMS), hypoglycemia, allergies, general fatigue, cold hands and feet, hot flashes. Inflammation, neck and shoulder aches, arthritis, sinusitis, eczema, sore throat and stiff joints, gluten sensitivities.

It is also involved in digesting and getting rid of dead white blood cells (a nicer name for pus) and for this reason you might be more prone to abscesses if you are deficient in this enzyme.



Lactase:

Digests milk and milk by-products.

Deficiency of lactase: If the intestines do not produce enough (or any) lactase, the milk sugar (lactose) is not digested and moves into the colon, where it is fermented by bacteria - producing hydrogen, carbon dioxide and organic acids, which can result in diarrhea, gas and cramps.




Maltase:
Digests maltose, malt and grain sugars.
May help relieve food and environmental sensitivities and allergies.




Invertase(Sucrase)
Digests sugars. Invertase helps prevent gastrointestinal problems and discomfort.

Deficiency Symptoms: Lung problems, asthma, bronchitis, seizures, hyperactivity, mood swings, insomnia, depression, chronic diarrhea, dizziness.




Cellulase
Digests fiber. Helps remedy digestive problems such as malabsorption.
Cellulase is a very important enzyme because the human body cannot produce it on its own.

Cellulase helps in the breakdown of plant walls (cellulose), and increases the overall efficiency of binding excess cholesterol and toxins in the intestines for removal.

Cellulase may be beneficial for food and environmental allergies, drug withdrawal, cell detox, colon cleaning and pain syndromes, Candida(yeast infections), gas, bloating, acute food allergies, facial pain or paralysis.




Pectinase
Breaks down carbohydrates such as pectin (found in many fruits).



Hemicellulase
Breaks down carbohydrates called hemi-celluloses, which are found in plant foods.



Phytase
Breaks down carbohydrates, specifically phytates (phytic acid), present in many difficult to digest grains and beans.

Especially useful for those suffering from serious bowel disorders which result in an inability to handle phytates from soy and gluten from wheat, oats, rye and barley. Phytase may increase mineral absorption and the bioavailability of iron, zinc, calcium, and magnesium.




Bromelain
An enzyme from the stem of pineapples. It breaks down protein and fights inflammation and reduces swelling. May speed the recovery of injuries and swelling resulting from athletics, childbirth and surgery. Good for respiratory infections. Anti-inflammatory-speeds healing, reduces angina and blood pressure, and improves cardiovascular conditions, anti-cancer agent, antibacterial, angina, asthma and bronchitis.

Bromelain may also have a beneficial effect on drug absorption, blood coagulation, fibrinolysis, third-degree burns, diarrhea as well as tumor growth.

People suffering from minor injuries as well as urinary tract infection may benefit from a bromelain supplement.

Bromelain has proved to be effective in fighting certain diarrhea causing bacteria (Escherichia coli), which makes it a perfect supplement to take along when traveling.




Papain
Similar to the chymotrypsin, a protein digesting enzyme produced by the body. Used to treat chronic diarrhea and celiac disease. Treats gastrointestinal discomfort due to intestinal parasites.



Amla Berry
Amla-Berry may strengthen digestion, absorption and assimilation of food.

Excellent source of Vitamin C. the most concentrated form of Vitamin C found in the plant kingdom. The Vitamin C is easily assimilated by the human body.

It also strengthens the liver, helping it in eliminating toxins from the body. Research shows that Amla Berry helps lower cholesterol, supports the nervous system, flushes out toxins, increases energy and removes fatigue, acts as an antioxidant.

Amla-Berry is especially supportive to the urinary system and can be helpful if you experience a mild burning sensation while urinating.

In traditional Ayurvedic medicine, amla has been particularly indicated for anemia, asthma, bleeding gums, diabetes, colds, chronic lung disease, hyperlipidemia, yeast infections, scurvy, and cancer.

Several studies have shown that amla protects organisms against chromosome damage from heavy metal (aluminum, lead, nickel) exposure.




Rutin
A citris bioflavonoid.

Rutin is known to increase the strength of the capillaries (blood vessels), itās a natural substances found in plants, fruits, vegetables, nuts, bark and buckwheat.

Citrus Bioflavonoids help protect capillaries, prevent bruising, and intensify the effect of vitamin C in the body.

Citrus Bioflavonoids provide natural antiviral, anti-inflammatory and anti-allergy properties. can be helpful to those suffering from bruising, varicose veins, spider veins, arthritis, hemorrhage, phlebitis, high cholesterol levels, herpes, cataracts, general inflammation, bleeding gums, blood clots, scurvy, hemorrhoids, edema, and hypertension.




Coral calcium
Reported benefits: Chronic back aches , joint Pain, Cerebral Palsy, osteoporosis, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis , severe sinus infections, chronic heartburn, better digestion, eczema, neck and back problems, Incessant pain in back of neck, Liver Disease, fibromyalgia, Leukemia, Hemorrhoids, yeast infection, asthma, athlete's foot, Migraine Headaches, Restless Legs Syndrome, Osteoarthritis, Severe Acid Indigestion, Severe Chronic Sinus Infections, Chronic Indigestion and stomach problems, chronic fatigue, plantar fascitis, depression, Prostate Cancer, Stomach Problems, Allergies, Multiple Schlerosis, Insomnia, colds, heartburn, Psoriasis, Parkinson's Disease, Weight Loss, Cancer, Joint Pain, Heart Disease, High Cholesterol, Muscle Cramps, Kidney Stones .

The Coral Calcium story was documented by a journalist with the Guinness Book of Records. He was sent interview a man named Shigechiyo Izumi, who lived on a small island off the coast of Okinawa, Japan. The Journalist was sent to see Mr. Izumi, who was, at age of 115, the world's oldest living human being.

The journalist noticed at the time of the interview that most of the islanders where in the same good health as Mr. Izumi. These Islanders seldom died before the age of 95. Doctors examined Mr. Izumi and at 115 years old they were surprised to find that he was an extremely healthy person.

This led researchers to try and determine why the people from Okinawa were in such amazing health. What they found was that the secret was in the water! This water that the islanders drank was different from any other water found anywhere else in the world. These Islands were built up over the years by coral reefs. When rain falls, it percolates coral deposits, picking up minerals and other elements that make it unique. This water, they found, also contained many essential minerals that are similar chemically to the elements found in the human skeleton, blood and other body fluids. It was also very alkaline, with a pH of 8.6, which scientist have concluded, is critical to cellular health.

The islanders were disease free and lived longer because their bodies were always at an optimum alkaline level due to the coral calcium that was naturally added to their water.


For over two decades, the Japanese government in Okinawa, Japan has controlled and mined the fossilized coral sands that accumulated on the sea floor around the islands without disturbing the living coral reefs



Alfalfa
Applications: Allergies, Anemia, Arthritis, Asthma, Bell's Palsy, Blood Disorders, Bursitis, Cholesterol, Diabetes, Digestive Disorders, Fatigue, Gout, Lactation, Kidney Disorders, Morning Sickness, Menopause, Nausea, Cushing's Disease, Rheumatism, Ulcers, Urinary tract infections, cancer, alcoholism (nutrition support), high blood pressure, jaundice, Mild laxative and diuretic, inflammations and rheumatism, fatigue, fever, glandular problems, hemorrhages, teeth, radioactive deposits, colon disorders, anemia, hemorrhaging, insomnia.

Alfalfa contains eight essential amino acids, is a rich source of vitamin B12, natural fluoride and chlorophyll.




Sprouts and Grasses:
Provides carotenoids, minerals, proteins and B vitamins.
Rich in enzymes such as SOD (superoxide dismutase) providing antioxidant activity. These ingredients work synergistically to assist the bodyās natural stamina, energy levels, detoxification systems and fight against cell degeneration.

Gluten-free sprouts contain catalase, methionine reductase, SOD and glutathione and essential enzymes.

Yoshihide Hagiwara, M.D., found that "young barley grass is one of the most nutritionally balanced foods in nature.

Barley Grass is alkaline and abundant in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and active enzymes. Its deep green color is due to its large amount of natural chlorophyll, a well-known cleanser and deodorizer. Superoxide dismutase, an enzyme important in neutralizing free radicals in our cells, is found in large amounts in barley grass. Barley grass is also rich in potassium, calcium and magnesium and, by weight, it has more vitamin C than oranges and more iron than spinach.

Grass is a complete food containing over 80 nutritional elements including all known vitamins and proteins.

People with wheat allergies have nothing to be afraid of from this food. Although grass is grown from grain, it has completely transformed into a vegetable with none of the allergic proteins common to glutinous grains.

Grass is non-toxic at any dose, but you may have a reaction to it because it is a potent detoxifying agent. It cleanses and heals the large intestine. It is an excellent blood purification. Grass is one of the planetās richest sources of high quality chlorophyll. Chlorophyll may be the most significant therapeutic ingredient in these grasses. Chlorophyll is known to kills harmful bacteria. It fights strep and staph infections, bad odors in the mouth, gum disease, and destroys putrefactive bacteria in the digestive tract. It promotes healing of wounds by stimulating the production of connective tissue, helps ear infection, and many more ailments.

Soy sprouts contain up to 40 percent protein, an almost complete array of amino acids, and a stable oil content that has naturally high lecithin and vitamin E. Soy sprouts are a good source of many protective compounds such as Superoxide Dismutase (SOD). These enzymes protect the body from free radical attacks. Sprouts contain tremendous anti-oxidant type phytochemicals which help fight Cancer, balance hormone activity, detoxify the blood, Fatigue, Cholesterol, Appetite, Strokes and Chronic aging changes.

WHEATGRASS
is one of the richest sources of chlorophyll available! One ounce of wheatgrass is equal to two and a half pounds of leafy green vegetables. Wheatgrass inhibits the growth of bacteria and infection. It is a rich source for beta-carotene, calcium, iron, protein, fiber, folic acid, vitamins K, C, B6, B12 and other trace minerals.
