Re: / Protease/enzyme safety

[Guest guest]

Dear , Please, I urge you to call Lucy from Lucy's Kitchen and share your

predicament with her about protease. Elaine saved her from almost dieing from

erosive colitis a relative to our disease celiac! She can enlighten you on what

Elaine said when she was alive. Her number is in the back of the BTVC

book....or you can even e-mail her from her web site.

lucy@...

With a healthy normal functioning gut protease is OK. The problem come when the

enzyme inhibiting properties in the intestine are not in check due to the

vicious cycle not being stopped or better controlled yet, causing the gut to be

damaged and not able to protect itself from protease enzyme function. Not good

with a damaged gut. Plan and simple! Elaine didn't trust the stuff!

Any other enzyme is Ok. When gut heals, assuming pancreatic function is normal

wont need enzymes any way. SCDiet alone kills off all the bad gut guys.

Please do not think that I am telling you what to do. I am just the messenger.

Sincerely, Antoinette (2 months/celiac and healing on SCD when gf did not

work...no longer using enzymes and doing just fine)

and to all it may concern,

In light of everything that I have learned about enzymes. If our pancreases if

working fine, and our gut is healing the SCD/ELAINE way....My husband and I,

truly do not care what is going on with others. It is none of our business. I

am only the messenger...and isn't it true that it is always the messenger that

gets shot????

The FACT IS, WHAT WE ARE DOING IS WORKING for us. Maybe deep down inside those

are jealous or something, that KiKI is so lucky to be so young, not have much

irreversible permanent damage and is possibly going to loose her diagnosis of

AUTISM. I don't know. I don't even know yet if she will be " cured " yet, but

this is our goal and hope.

I know one thing though. We are at 2 plus months and don't seem to need enzymes

anymore anyways. I may, because I had my gallbladder taken out...and will try

to find just lipase.

But our pancreatic function tests came back normal. Something that is not true

with those poor souls with Cystic Fibrosis and those fighting CANCER/chemo

already. Their pancreatic functions become truly impaired.

And yes where ever you have chronic inflammation and irritation the chance that

those cells that are always being reestablished turning cancerous increases.

This is why if protease inflames a already inflamed gut....that ones chance of

CANCER increases.

Sadly to say those using protease with Cystic Fibrosis usually die young...so we

wouldn't know using them as a model for this increased cancer rate.

As far as protease being used as a treatment for caner...if it works and a

person has cancer GO FOR IT! Chemo sure doesn't seem to save many! But most of

us here have a vicious cycle that needs broken...not cancer.

2 plus months and we don't need protease anymore anyway, our gut is doing it for

us like Elaine and our GI specialist promised us. All signs of steatorrhea

(undigested fat) and undigested protein are gone in our little KIKI. Her own

natural enzymes are doing the job now.....she has gained 3 pounds in two plus

months.....THIS IS PROOF Elaine's way works.....again. And as you guys know

from all our testimony....she is on the right road of possibly loosing her

diagnosis of AUTISM.

Some have permanent damage. I deal with this in my son, husband and my own

health. Nothing can take this permanent damage away. No magic bullet, no DAN!,

not even Elaine. But the strictest SCD can insure that the brains that are

there can benefit from the best nutrition. So they may " rewire " , or function

better....and we too will have progress and success!

If those are using enzymes to " cheat " the diet....God help you. The Vicious

Cycle will never be given a chance to heal or stop. But again, it is none of my

business. My only business is to heal my family.

Experimented with other diet for 18 months...this by far works the best.

Sincerely, Antoinette (2 mo the strictest SCDiet that we can muster and it is

working in all five of us, family problems damaged

intestines/malabsorption/celiac and asd)

I would have to disagree about calling Lucy.

Lucy is very knowledgeable about SCD, but all of the " extras " that

people do are not what Lucy helps people with.

If you want to learn about enzyme function call Devin Houston or see

if has time to take phone calls or private e-mails.

To learn a ton about enzymes, go read all of the information on

http://www.enzymestuff.com and/or get DeFelice's book.

i have read karen's book and it is fabulous. i wouldnt hesitate to

use enzymes unless i had a bad reaction from them. so you can always

use a tiny amount of a typical dose and see how you feel. i use them

whenever i find my kids seem to have had a less than wonderful

reaction to a newly introduced food. sort of as a cleaner upper.
