Enerex Enerex - Serrapeptase 120,000 SU 120,000 SU 60mg, 180 DRvcaps

Enerex Serrapeptase - 120,000 SU - Serrapeptase is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from the non-pathogenic enterobacteria Serratia E15. Besides reducing inflammation, one of Serrapeptase's most profound benefits is reduction of pain, due to its ability to block the release of pain-inducing amines from inflamed tissues. It may enhance cardiovascular health by breaking down the protein by-products of blood coagulation called fibrin. Conveniently, Serrapeptase is able to dissolve the fibrin and other dead or damaged tissue without harming living tissue. This could enable the dissolution of atherosclerotic plaques without causing any harm to the inside of the arteries.

Why people keep reordering it

Cartilage and connective tissue
Supports the structures that keep joints moving comfortably.
Mobility and recovery
For active bodies and everyday wear alike.
Skin, hair and nails too
Collagen support that shows beyond the joints.

Best suited to: looking for a proteolytic enzyme, not a vitamin, wants a delayed release capsule for an enzyme, prefers taking one capsule once daily on an empty stomach.

What the research supports

One DRcap delivers 120,000 SU of serrapeptase, a proteolytic enzyme, taken once daily on an empty stomach. The bottle of 180 lasts six months.

Serrapeptase is measured in activity units rather than milligrams. Most published work sits between 10 and 60 mg of enzyme, and this is 60 mg at 120,000 SU.

Swelling (evidence: moderate, from small randomized trials, clinical observation)
Serrapeptase breaks down inflammatory proteins that build up around injured tissue. Small human trials, mostly after minor injuries, show less swelling and discomfort than placebo, though study sizes are small.
Circulation (evidence: limited, from in vitro, animal studies)
Serrapeptase can digest fibrin, a protein involved in clot formation, in lab and animal studies. Whether that translates into a real circulation benefit in people has not been confirmed in human trials.

Is it right for you

Worth it if

looking for a proteolytic enzyme, not a vitamin
this is straight serrapeptase at 120,000 SU per capsule with no fillers or added actives to dilute the dose.
wants a delayed release capsule for an enzyme
the DRcap shell is designed to pass through stomach acid intact so the enzyme reaches the intestine rather than breaking down early.
prefers taking one capsule once daily on an empty stomach
the dosing instructions are built around a single daily dose taken away from food for absorption.

Look elsewhere if

someone with a bleeding tendency or an upcoming surgery
talk to a practitioner first since serrapeptase affects fibrin breakdown and this needs medical oversight before use in that situation.
someone with an active stomach or intestinal ulcer
this enzyme is cautioned against in that case, so a gentler digestive support product would be a better starting point.
wants broad joint or inflammation support with multiple actives
look for a formula that combines enzymes like bromelain or turmeric extract rather than a single isolated proteolytic enzyme.

What to expect

Any change in stiffness, swelling or general discomfort tends to show up gradually over a few weeks of daily use rather than immediately, since the enzyme has to accumulate its effect on tissue debris and fibrin over time. There's no perceptible sensation from taking the capsule itself.

How it compares

Compared with a basic serrapeptase capsule at 10,000 to 40,000 SU
this delivers three to twelve times more enzyme activity per capsule at 120,000 SU. The tradeoff: a higher SU dose has less long term human safety data behind it and may not be needed if you're new to enzyme supplements.
Compared with a plain gelatin capsule serrapeptase
the DRcap shell here is designed to resist stomach acid so more of the enzyme survives to the intestine. The tradeoff: delayed release capsules generally cost more per dose than standard capsules.
