Systemic Enzymes, A Primer (of sorts)

Let me say at the outset that I do not know everything. I am not looking for a following. Of course I would like to sell you lots of Vitalzym, but it's more important to me that your health be served. I invite you to explore this information. I am grateful to be able to offer it to you.

Vitalzym?? What the heck is it?? Why are you pressing an audio CD into my hand? I don't know what fibrin is and I don't care!

Vitalzym is a synergistic combination of several different kinds of enzymes. So what, you may ask. Well, it turns out that as we age, our bodies produce fewer enzymes. Enzymes are the catalyst for every single reaction in the body, and when enzyme production declines, as it does starting when we are only 27, the biochemical laboratory that is our body cannot function at peak efficiency as it did when we were younger.

The end result is that fibrin, that stuff circulating in the blood that is used to help heal wounds and form scar tissue, starts to be laid down where it doesn't belong, to help stabilize the body. But the body can become so stabilized that we start to feel stiff and it gets hard to move, get up, walk, or do the simple things we used to do without thinking. Fibrin is also laid down in the organs as well as the muscles, joints, and blood vessels. We end up as a walking bundle of scar tissue, stiff and dull and feeling old.

Vitalzym dissolves fibrin and helps to remove it from the body. Not just any old fibrin, but the kind that is in the wrong place. Hey! I like it! I turned my ankles thousands of times when I was a kid and they are full of scar tissue. I'm watching to see if the Vitalzym dissolves it.

My own experience with Vitalzym started on the day before the 3rd anniversary of my Mother's passing. I was poking around the internet and thought I would look for something to listen to while I did a mindless task. Just by "chance" (some say there are no accidents in the universe!) I stumbled upon (or was led, depending on how you look at it) a lecture by the very brilliant Dr. William Wong, ND, PhD, about Vitalzym, a systemic enzyme formula. As soon as I heard him speak, my hair stood up. I dropped the task and gave my full attention to Dr. Wong. I knew right away that I had to try this stuff, so the next day, after checking my bank account, I placed an order.

This may seem strange, but the first thing I noticed, after a couple of days, was that my little pit-stops at night went from 2 hours apart to 4-6 hours apart. This meant my sleep was unbroken for a longer time and the quality of rest I was getting was better.

Over the course of the next few days, I noticed reduced pain, increased mental clarity, and more energy. I thought it was just wishful thinking. I thought, "This is too soon, it can't be happening that fast. I must be making this up." Then my boss said, "You seem to have more energy." This was important since I work with kids! Then a pain I'd been having from an old injury to my right wrist started to become less troublesome. My depression lifted and my interest in life came back. Now I'm full of ideas all the time.

I had been feeling that I was losing interest. Life had become a "so-what" and I was starting to think I should sell my books. And I was only 60, and my library has been one of the most important things to me all my life!!

I received from the Vitalzym people a tape of Dr. Wong, talking about enzymes and their importance. I listened to it over and over again. I know lots of stuff but I had never been aware of the extent and importance of enzymes to human life.

I was including information about Vitalzym in all Kombucha orders, because enzymes are the main point of Kombucha in my opinion and Vitalzym is the perfect companion to it. But a customer wrote me a nasty letter that he didn't appreciate all that advertising, so I just send info on request now.

I have become convinced that Vitalzym is the very best systemic enzyme preparation available. One of my clients has noticed the disappearance of a disturbing side effect from one of his many medications taking only one capsule per day, which I don't think is enough. Another, taking 9 caps a day, noticed some serious hip pain to be lessening after a day and a half. After 2 weeks on Vitalzym he rode a very demanding 50-mile motorcycle trail, and reported to me that he didn't end up with two days of soreness and aches as in the past. He also wondered if it was just wishful thinking, but when a week passed and the improvements stayed and kept increasing, he was convinced. (Update 12/04, he's now on Vitalzym 20 months, takes 12 caps a day, and is still pain free.) He says that in 7 years, fighting Chronic Fatigue (Epstein-Barr), he has tried over 400 nutrients and nothing even comes close to the results he has seen in just a couple of weeks on Vitalzym. Perhaps the reason is that proteolytic (protein-eating) enzymes digest the protein coating on a virus, which removes its ability to attach itself to your cells. My, my! For more on reducing viral load, take a look at this article by Dr. Wong on "Fighting Viruses, and Winning." Absolutely great stuff.

September 15, 2005, I received the following from MB:

Hi Nancy,

Just wanted to write you. I had written you a while ago about muscle pain I was having and the doctor said I probably had polymyalgia rheumatica because my sed rate was around 78 and going higher. The doc wanted me to take prednisone, if you recall, but I took the Vitalzym instead. Well, my pain was quickly gone and I went for blood tests this week and my SED rate is totally normal now!!! So glad I researched and found this and didn't go the western route with prednisone!!!!

However, the doc found I have a heart murmur and thinks I may have a small leak in the mitral valve (mitral valve prolapse, its' called?) and wondered if you knew of something good to take for that. Apparently, I don't think even if he finds a leak -- I'm going for an echocardiogram soon--that it is a serious problem. But you seem so knowledgeable I thought you might be able to make some recommendations for this. I am taking CoQ10, and also a product called CVF with Potassium, Magnesium, and Carnitine.

Thanks for any advice you can provide. Isn't that great about my SED rate? I am so excited about it!

Thanks, MB, for giving me permission to post this. Yes, the SED rate reduction is very exciting, and something I had not heard of Vitalzym doing before. (I answered her other question by email.)

Vitalzym, 450 capsules, $114 + 6.00 shipping and insurance

August, 2008 ~ It is with regret that I have had to raise my price. There was a price increase of ingredients at World Nutrition. They had to pass it on to distributors AND set the minimum price at which it can be advertised on the net. I apologize to regular customers that I am unable to offer a 'last-minute special." The stuff is already expensive. As long as I continue using this brand in my own health protocol I will keep offering it on this site. At this writing I am taking 4 caps, 3 times a day.

Update 5-23-08 Hubby passed away November 15, 2007, having refused to follow a complete protocol or to give up the smokeless tobacco he was using until 10 days before he died. It was a rough six months before then and it's been a rough 6 months since then, too. I hit bottom with adrenal exhaustion early this month in spite of supplements. They tell me grief takes many forms. I am currently taking 5 Vitalzym 3 times a day. I take adrenal, kidney, and thyroid supports in the morning, heart supports at midday, and liver and spleen supports in the evening. This seems to be working to retrieve my energy and interest in things. The support of close friends and clients has been a blessing. Thank you everyone.

Interesting health-related links:

This link is to Alkalize for Health. This site contains a HUGE amount of true information on health and no BS. This writer is very aware of many things. I love his style! Get ready for a long and interesting read!!

Here is a bunch of questions to ask your doctor. I wrote this in about 1998. The minute I wrote it, it tried to expand itself into a book. I had trouble fitting it onto one page because it was bursting at the seams. Now I'm adding stuff to it. If you have stuff you want to see on this page, please email me!!

Iodoral is an Iodine supplement which is having a profound effect on me and everyone I have on it. One friend has even found he's sleeping better. I have no idea why. I have a page about it, of course. Iodoral
