Systemic Enzyme Therapies

I've had some private emails from people asking about systemic enzyme therapies.

Pulmonary Fibrosis literally means lung (pulmonary) scarring (fibrosis). The lung scarring occurs in the tissue of the lung called the interstitium, which supports the structures of the lung (air sacs/alveoli). Lung tissue thickens and becomes stiff, and scarring inhibits oxygen from entering the blood stream.

New research indicates that systemic enzymes, which can be taken in supplements such as Neprinol, Wobenzym, and Vitalzym, work at destroying the scarring from within. Systemic Enzymes are being touted as a cure-all for everything from psoriasis to arthritis and, yes, pulmonary fibrosis.

One of the issues with this current trend is, as with all non-traditional treatments of incurable diseases, cost. Whether the research is junk science and quackery or valid scientific advancement, the supplement companies are making-- pardon the pun-- a killing. 150 tablets of Neprinol go for about $100.00. Even ebay has not been showing particularly low prices. These are not supplements covered by insurance.

The information is here. I am considering taking one of these supplements myself but want to do more research and, hopefully, find a less expensive supplier than those readily available online.
