Systemic Enzymes for Immune Health

Support All of Your Body’s Systems

When multiple systems in the body are taxed or working beyond their natural ability, systemic enzymes can be extremely beneficial in supporting defense mechanisms and bringing the body back on track.

The immune system is one of the most profoundly complex systems of the body, responsible for ceaseless tasks that keep us strong, healthy, and in balance—every day, all of the time. It is active 24/7, fighting off foreign invaders like bacteria, viruses, microbes, parasites and toxins.

Essentially, the immune system acts as the “gatekeeper” for our bodies. If anything out of the ordinary makes its way into the body, it is the immune system’s job to deal with it rapidly enough so that we don’t notice anything gone awry in our health.


Illness as a Sign the Immune System is Struggling

Most of us tend to take the seamless actions of the immune system for granted, not really giving much thought to our immune systems until something comes along to knock us off our feet, aka—we get sick.

Getting sick can be something as temporary as a cold or flu, or as complex as overactive immune conditions or other serious diseases.

Whatever the root causes, sickness is the reflection of an immune system that has become weak or out of balance and is in need of some bolstering.

It is unrealistic for most of us to stay in perfect balance all of the time. Modern life in general bombards us from daily stress to environmental toxins that are impossible to avoid.

At some point, we will probably experience some type of ailment or illness. If we are lucky, that is the worst of it, and we eventually recover and feel well again. The reality is, however, that maintaining a strong immune system boils down to more than just luck. Proper self-care is critical to keeping our bodies in tip-top shape from the inside out.


Beyond the Occasional Illness

Several factors, when not managed or minimized, can lead to more frequent colds or chronic conditions. Stress, poor diet, factors leading to inflammation, and lack of sleep and proper exercise can overwhelm our systems—making it difficult for our natural immune response to continue functioning properly.

In fact, the longer our bodies remains out of balance due to one or more of these factors, the more prone we are to experiencing some kind of more serious illness. Many autoimmune diseases have proven to be rooted in unhealthy inflammation levels in the body.

Inflammation is a direct reflection of a body in distress—it is a quintessential immune response.


What Exactly are Enzymes?

Enzymes are proteins that are responsible for every chemical reaction that goes on in your body. They govern all the functions related to your tissues, muscles, bones, organs, cells, and immunity.

Every second of our lives, over 3,000 different enzymes are renewing and changing. Research shows that as we age, our natural enzyme production and supply becomes depleted. In large part, this is due to the demands that come with living in our modern world.

How Systemic Enzymes Can Help

Systemic Enzymes are adaptogenic, meaning they restore a steady state to the body. When the immune system is running low, we become susceptible to infectious disease.

As systemic enzymes support our immune response, natural killer cells are produced which improves the efficiency of white blood cells—leading to improved immunity.


Systemic Enzymes for Overactive Immune Responses

The beauty of adaptogenic substances is that they are versatile and restore homeostasis, or healthy cell regulation, in the body. Just as systemic enzymes can boost the immune system when it is low, they can also tone down an immune system that is cranked up too high and producing abnormal levels of antibodies or other immune defense mechanisms.

Taking a systemic enzyme supplement containing a powerful proteolytic enzyme such as serrapeptase (serratiopeptidase) may tone down an overactive immune system and eat away at the antibodies the immune system is making to attack its own body. 

How do systemic enzymes combat excess immune response?

Systemic Enzymes have a lock and key mechanism. They fit only with specific proteins in the body. They know which proteins to bind with because the body creates something called circulating immune complexes, or CICs (you can think of CICs as the lock, and of systemic enzymes as the key). Some CICs are necessary, and help to keep the body running balanced and smoothly.  However, others can cause problems.

When a person is injured or has an acute illness, the body “tags” the injured area or the invader with CICs, and this creates an inflammatory response, at which point the immune system steps in to heal and repair us. Generally, this is a rather brilliant system. However, with a hyperactive immune response, proteins in the body are inappropriately tagged. 

Systemic enzymes can tell the difference between the proteins that are supposed to be in your body and those that are foreign or not supposed to be there. Systemic Enzymes can essentially “read” the tags and know which CICs are foreign (should be dealt with), and which are internally made (should be left alone). The result is that systemic enzymes help to regulate an overburdened, hyper-functioning immune system.


Systemic Enzymes Supplement Suggestions

Vitalzym 360 Vitalzym is a brilliantly designed potent natural enzyme product that can help keep our immune systems running like the well-oiled machine we need to keep us strong and healthy. Vitalzym has the strongest proteolytic effects of any enzyme due to its serrapeptase content.

Supplement with Vitalzym to promote a strong immune system or to help balance a system that is already showing signs of distress is a prudent move that can help keep you well for years to come.

Vitalzym X Profesisonal Strength from World NutritionVitälzȳmX™ is an extra strength and highly fibrinolytic version of the original powder-based Vitälzȳm hybrid product. Its unique proprietary blend includes even more Serrapeptase, compared to the original, and a highly-active form of proteinase.
