Digestive enzymes

Crohn's Disease Forum

Help Support Crohn's Disease Forum:

I had some success in raising my blood protein level using digestive enzymes. They only raised it by one point, but it only took it once and sometimes twice a day.

It did not affect my Crohn's one way or another. I was in remission at the time, so I had no way of measuring any Crohn's related results.

what type of enzyme did you use? there are good and bad. The protease family of enzymes has been tested with results. They heal wounds. You may have pain at first which is sign of healing. You can take a lower dosage which will then take a longer time to heal. Enzymatic therapy brand is very good. You can call the company they are extremely helpful. Good luck
 
The one I tried was through blue rock organics, but the day after I took it, I had stomach flu symptoms, and vomited all night long. Not sure if it was a coincidence or because of the enzymes.
 
Have you tried it again? Not sure what you know about enzymes or what was explained when you made your purchase. Does the product label supplemental fact box show the type of enzymes? after each type of enzyme there should be capital letters and the amount example: protease HUT 10,000 breaks down proteins, amylase DU 24,000 breaks down carbos, cellulase CU 2,000 fiber, lactase ALU 400 milk sugars,
there are digestive enzymes and metabolic enzymes, Enzymes are practically the basis of life. If you do not have a particular enzyme you die. What I've read is the protease is one of the most important for healing wounds, start out taking a small amount. you can if using a capsule open and use less.
An enzyme has activity, this is seen as a number amount after the letter (ex. HUT 10,000) on the label. So maybe the activity was to high. I hope this helps
 
No, I haven't tried them again since. I'm a little afraid to, I don't want to be throwing up all night again... :confused2: But thanks for explaining what the numbers mean. I'm not sure of the numbers on the one I took, a friend gave them to me to try...
