Rheumatoid Arthritis
Dr. Arnold Renshaw, from Manchester in England, reported in the Annals of Rheumatic Disease (1947) that he had obtained good results with enzyme treatment of over 700 patients with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis or Fibrositis. “Some intractable cases of ankylosing spondylitis and Still’s disease have also responded to this therapy.” He went on to say that of 556 people with various types of arthritis, 283 were found to be much improved, and a further 219 were improved to a less marked extent. Of 292 cases of rheumatoid arthritis, 264 showed improvement of various degrees. The longer the duration of the disease, the longer time before improvement was observed, although most started to show improvement after just two or three months of enzyme therapy.
Despite these favourable findings, digestive enzyme therapy in conventional medicine has been reserved for those diseases that directly result in a pathological deficiency of pancreas-derived digestive enzymes.
What causes it?
There are two main types of arthritis: Osteo-arthritis, which in lay terms is due to wear and tear of the joint, and Rheumatoid arthritis which is a form of arthritis where the joints have become inflamed, possibly as a result of a virus or autoimmune response.
Warning: Rheumatoid vasculitis (inflammation of the blood vessels) is a serious complication of RA and can be life-threatening. It can lead to skin ulcerations (and subsequent infections), bleeding stomach ulcers (which can lead to massive haemorrhage), and neuropathies (nerve problems causing pain, numbness or tingling). Vasculitis may also affect the brain, nerves, and heart causing strokes, sensory neuropathies (numbness and tingling), heart attacks, or heart failure. Use the program with safety but seek medical help at the same time.
In general Osteo-arthritic pain will respond faster to Serrapeptase treatment than rheumatoid arthritis, which may need more intensive treatment. The best results in any studies for rheumatoid arthritis come from those using Enzymes and diet. A new US study showed that a Mediterranean diet showed a substantial improvement and confirms earlier such studies that show processed starchy carbohydrate diets are disease promoting.
Surprisingly, doctors still do not know what actually causes arthritis – whatever the various schools of thought speculate on as to its cause, the one thing we are sure of is that the real problem is that the normal healing function of the body is no longer doing its job of looking after the repair of the damage being caused by the Arthritis.
Arthritis Relief
One of the most important potential benefits of Proteolytic Enzymes is in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis. Conventional treatment of this devastating disease involves powerful, dangerous drugs, like steroidal and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, as well as more exotic treatments, such as methotrexate and D-penicillamine. About the best one can say about these drugs is that they may provide a degree of short-term symptomatic relief. At worst, they will kill you.
Numerous studies in animals and people with rheumatoid arthritis indicate that enzyme therapy can manage symptoms of pain and inflammation at least as well as the conventional drugs, but with none of the adverse effects. In fact, side effects with enzymes are virtually nonexistent .
Doctors who are experienced with Proteolytic Enzymes find prophylactic treatment offers a wide range of benefits including:
* Better mobilisation, reducing the degree of muscle atrophy, arthritis and pain on movement
* Less risk of thromboembolic complications
* Less pain and discomfort due to swelling
* Less risk of cartilage or capsular damage due to immobility
How can Serrapeptase Help?
Serrapeptase helps immensely as it clears out all of the inflammation and dead/scar tissue. By clearing away this problem tissue it enables the bodies own healing system to replace it with healthy tissue.
How many do I take?
Start with 3 Tablets of Serrapeptase x 3 times per day on an empty stomach and increase it to 4 x 3 if no relief with 7 days, even more if necessary. Then gradually reduce to 1 x 1.
Can I take too many tablets or can it interfere with any drugs I am taking?
No. It has been used for over 25 years with no side effects reported. Will this program cure the Arthritis? Serrapeptase is clearing the problem tissue and HealthPoint is treating the damage caused by the Arthritis – the condition itself must be treated with other measures such as nutrition etc. However, from a patient’s point of view, the fact that many customers are now completely free from all symptoms of their arthritis does suggest that the relief given by Serrapeptase and HealthPoint is very close to a cure.

As with all chronic serious conditions there are no magic bullets and therefore your chances for complete remission are improved by following as much as you can manage of the 10 Step Arthritis Plan below.
The simple reason for doing more is to give yourself the best chance you will ever have of beating Arthritis.
1. Follow as below (in order of priority, as much as you can afford):
- Take 1-3 Serrapeptase: 3 times per day until all symptoms have ceased and then lower to 1 x 2 per day. This will eat any scar tissue, inflammation and dead tissue.
- Curcumin: (an anti-inflammatory, also stimulates Glutathione)
- Protease Enzymes: 9-12 daily on an empty Stomach.
- Vitamin C: 2000mg – 4000mg spread over the day
- Sublingual Homocysteine Control Formula: 6 Sprays per day
- Hemp Seed Oil or Fish Oil
- Glucosamine/Chondroitin/MSM/Collagen complex: will help to regenerate the cartilage.
- Olive Leaf Extract 3 caps daily (a powerful antiviral, antibacterial, anti-fungal)
- SAM-e: the new wonder antioxidant for arthritis
- To further reduce the inflammation and pain, treatment with an electro-acupressure device has proved to be as highly effective in treating degeneration problems as acupuncture
- Osteo-Arthritis sufferers may be able to reduce the quantity within days and Rheumatoid Arthritis sufferers may increase quantity until relief takes place
Almost certainly, a dysfunctional digestive tract is implicated. For your Digestive Tract Recovery take (in order of priority):
- Essential Herbal Cleanse to cleanse and restore digestive system and whole body system (optional).
- Digestive Enzymes – 30 minutes before food.
- ProDophilusFOS – Ensures a healthy digestive tract.
- L-Glutamine – take 5 gms daily to heal the damaged digestive tract for 1 -2 months.
- Oxygen and Aloe Vera – Take ½oz twice per day to help heal the digestive tract and support the Probiotic.
