Guest guest Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 My twins have high levels of gut and brain inflammation. I would like to give them some enzymes to help with this? Is there a protocol like the high dose Virastop protocol except for inflammation? Any advice? Thanks, Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Hi Dana, I'm sure you already know this but it's important to find out what is causing the gut and brain inflammation. There can be several contributing factors like yeast, bacteria or food intolerances. Inflammation can result from insufficiently broken-down food or infections of any kind. If improper digestion is occurring larger particle sizes from a food can irritate the gut lining. On page 38 of DeFelice's book Enzymes: Go with your gut it states, " Besides its role in MT function, research shows the integrity of the gut suffers when zinc is deficient, including observed increases in inflammation and ulcers. Fortunately, supplementing zinc enhances cell production in the gut and facilitates the reversal of intestinal damage. (Duff and Ettarh 2002) " When speaking with our technical advisor, he recommended taking ViraStop and Defenze for gut and brain inflammation. Defenze is high in antioxidants. Antioxidants are excellent for the brain. It's thought that Alpha lipoic acid actually protects brain cells and glutathione protects and repairs DNA. Many of the " chemicals " that cause brain issues are oxidants. He also mentioned that Omega 3's are very beneficial. I hope this helps. Feel free to ask me any questions.
