SERRATIOPEPTIDASE

OVERVIEW
Serratiopeptidase helps the body break down proteins, thereby reducing inflammation

CLASSIFICATION
Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug’ (NSAID)
USES
Serrapeptase is promoted as an anti-inflammatory and mucolytic agent, but efficacy for either use has not been well established. Two randomized controlled trials reported no reduction in swelling caused by sprained ankles, and results of studies evaluating use for pain and swelling after dental surgery are conflicting. Two clinical trials evaluating serrapeptase as a mucolytic agent also reported conflicting results. Serrapeptase has also been investigated for adjunctive use to antibiotics to enhance antibiotic activity; however, evidence is limited to 2 low-quality clinical studies
HOW IT WORKS
The specialty of Serrapeptase is it breaks down non-living proteins inside the human body. Non-living tissues are there in the body only when there is inflammation, swelling, or clogging. Serrapeptase geo-targets such sites in the body and reduces inflammation.
