Recommended Usage: Take 2 capsules, 2 to
3 times a day on an empty stomach (30
minutes before or 2 hours after eating).
RenewZyme may be taken before and after
strenuous exercise to speed recovery.*
Inflammation: Inflammation is often a matter of circulation. The capillaries are small
blood vessels responsible for carrying oxygen and nutrients to the cells and removing
waste. After an injury, some of these capillaries may be damaged, making them
incapable of carrying blood to and from the damaged tissue. The result is pain,
swelling, redness, heat and loss of function. By repairing the capillaries, the bruises,
swelling and pain disappear. Proteolytic enzymes (enzymes that have the ability to
break down protein) have been shown to increase blood flow in the damaged capillary, improve circulation and speed
healing. Once in the blood stream proteolytic enzymes hydrolyze (digest) the protein responsible for impeding blood
flow. Additionally, these same proteases have been shown to support immune function and accelerate elimination of free
radicals and waste materials by way of the lymphatic system.
Recovery: In a recent study, runners were given protease supplements or a placebo four times a day for three days. This
consisted of 24 hours before and 48 hours after running. The participants were evaluated for mood, muscle soreness and
pain threshold 24 and 48 hours after running 30 minutes at about 7 miles per hour. The result was less soreness,
improved pain threshold and no mood change with those taking the proteolytic supplements over the group who took
the placebo. This is not new. According to some sports medicine reports, there is
scarcely a top athlete in Germany who is not familiar with enzyme therapy.
Additionally, in Australia, athletes are provided with enzyme capsules as a precaution to
aid in rapid recovery after injury.
Component Benefits: Proteolytic Enzymes help for all of the above reasons. Namely,
they relieve the types of inflammation that require ice (injury, trauma, sprains, surgery,
etc.). The proteolytic enzymes in RenewZyme are Protease, Bromelain, Papain, and Catalase. Catalase has superior
antioxidant qualities. Bromelain and Papain appear to be attracted to "hot spots" in the body, points of inflammation
that exhibit temperatures higher than normal body temperature. Temperature rises at the point of inflammation.
Bromelain seems to be drawn to the area, bringing with it the other enzymes. Once there, these enzymes help reduce
inflammation by breaking down the proteins that restrict blood flow and slow healing.
Amylase increases joint mobility and helps relieve sore muscles.
Lipase can help relieve muscle spasms and cold lymphatic swelling. These issues can be related to calcium deficiency
from a lack of lipase.
Rutin is a bioflavonoid antioxidant that reduces free radical damage.
