1. Breaking down foreign proteins in your blood that cause inflammation (root cause of numerous health issues!)

2. Getting rid of inflammatory proteins via your blood stream and lymphatic system (the lymph collects blood proteins, waste products and microbes from the spaces surrounding each cell. These are then detoxified, the usable compounds are reclaimed, and a purified lymph fluid is returned to your bloodstream).

3. Proteolytic enzymes have also been found helpful for: Fibrosis conditions caused by the hard, sticky protein called fibrin.

• Reduction of scar tissue, also made up of fibrin.
• Cleaning the blood of cellular waste and toxins, also supporting normal liver function.
• Promoting immune system response by helping white blood cell efficiency.
• Managing the overgrowth of yeast, putting less stress on your liver.

Excess fibrin (secreted in excess by an unhealthy liver) are involved in high blood pressure raising your risk of heart attack and/or stroke.

Inflammation and immune function
Most of chronic disease we have to deal with, including major issues — can benefit from having these type of enzymes in our blood.

Lack of protease enzymes can be a causal factor, in a wide variety of symptoms
Cancer	Shingles (herpes zoster)
Digestive problems	Inflammation and/or pain caused by sports injuries or trauma
Fibrocystic breast disease	Pancreatic insufficiency
Food allergies	Multiple sclerosis
Atherosclerosis (arterial hardening)	Rheumatoid arthritis
Hepatitis C	Sinusitis, asthma, bronchitis chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Back pain	Chronic fatigue
Fibromyalgia	High blood pressure
Herniated disc	Sciatica
Spinal stenosis	Sprains and strains
Postoperative scar tissue	Uterine fibroids
Bacterial, viral, mold and fungal infections	Heart attack and stroke

 

As one can see, taking proteolytic enzyme supplement make a lot of sense. To achieve the intended effects it has to be taken the right way.

• For improve digestion of proteins: with a meal, the enzymes will work as digestive aids, speeding up the breakdown of dietary proteins.
• To improved health (table above): between meals (empty stomach), they enter your blood circulation bypassing the digestive system. So, for systemic effects, they must be taken between meals or else they won't have a metabolic, systemic effect.

70% of our ability to resist disease resides in our gut!

The Roots of Health
When we talk about getting to the bottom of something we often use the metaphor of "getting to the root of the matter." This is because roots are foundational. Your GI tract is foundational to your health. It is the starting place for building health and no other organ or system can fully heal until the gastrointestinal tract is supported. Along with being responsible for assimilating the nutrition your body needs, your GI tract is responsible for 70% of your ability to resist disease. So, without healthy guts you can’t properly defend your health against infections. It’s no wonder guts are used as a metaphor for courage.

The Second Brain
Your intestines also serve as one of the major pathways of elimination. They quite literally help the body get rid of crap it does not need. And, if that is not enough to convince you how important the GI tract is to your health, consider this-your intestines produce numerous neurotransmitters that influence your mood, which is why some researchers have referred to them as the gut brain or second brain. So, it’s hard to be in a good mood at all if your GI tract is out of whack.

It Starts with What You Put in Your Mouth
Of course, it all starts where the GI tract begins. We’re talking about what you put into your mouth. If you want to grow a healthy plant, put it in good soil. Your body’s soil is the food you ingest and your GI tract will tell you whether the soil you’re creating is good or bad through symptoms. To help you understand this, let me use an analogy. If you were to put some cream or lotion on your skin that had a chemical in it that your body found irritating, the effects would be apparent rather quickly. Your skin would respond with an inflammatory process characterized by redness, swelling and/or pain. When you see this, you’d most likely quit using that product because you’d recognize it wasn’t good for your skin.
Unfortunately, most people are often less aware when it comes to diet. What is sweet to the tongue can be bitter to the belly. Processed foods often taste good, but when you consume them regularly your guts complain. You get indigestion, acid reflux, belching, boating, diarrhea, constipation and other GI tract problems.
