Guest guest Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 Hi Barb, In my opinion, I think you need to use enzymes any time you eat anything that has been processed or cooked to about 120 deg., because that heat will kill all the enzymes. If you eat something raw, which has active enzymes, then I don’t think it’s necessary for added enzyme supplement. I have a really interesting article titled “How to Jump Start Your Way to Good Health with Enzymes” and if you would like to read it, let me know and I’ll send you a copy. Carol barb1283 [barb1283] Carol and all, If I don't have digestive problems, are digestive enzymes necessary. The ones at Blue Green Algae are awfully expensive. I could buy more blue green algae for example. I don't have digestive problems.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 Barb; If you're not low on trace minerals you should have no trouble making you own enzymes. And there's vastly more to it than digestive enzymes; there are something like 20,000, each with a different function. If you're low on minerals you're low on enzymes, so it's a good idea to take the minerals you need anyway, then take digestive enzymes only if required. Minerals are cheap and essential.

Guest guest Posted July 15, 2003 Report Share Posted July 15, 2003 Actually, Karl, most of the Levites were genocided by the Romans. And the records to prove themselves Levites were also destroyed by the Levites. If they had original dna from known levites from back then, before Roman destruction (I don't know how it could be verified unless one found bones and accepted honesty on a grave marker), perhaps one could prove levitical-ness even today. Most of the oceans are polluted. Down deep is polluted as well, but not as much. Although it is growing. Reading various things, when oil is spilled in the ocean, when it gets cold it starts to clump together. You can actually find balls of oil on the ocean floor, when you go deep enough and it gets cold enough. So, it is correct that the best place to go for food sources in the ocean is deep water. Still not pure though. Not anywhere. We've done a pretty awful job with the entire planet not accounting for waste from consumption. We've been taught that consumption is what drives economies (in a "regulated free market"-oxymoron but it is what we have, at least, again in terms of the myth that we are taught) so we must all consume more and more in order to buy the things that we want that "they" want to sell to us, and by buying more and more we supposedly keep more people employed to make more and more, to sell more and more to a growing more and more. More and more and more. Which unfortunately, has meant more damage from more point sources of pollution. Although, probably, individual point sources have been reduced in the amount of pollution that they create, including us individual humans. At least those of us who become conscious and try to become more stewardly of resources. The end. My daughter just stopped me short of writing another essay.

Guest guest Posted July 16, 2003 Report Share Posted July 16, 2003 You got me, Karl. Levites of the temple and those in Jerusalem and the land of Palestine, including records resident in Judaea at that time, would have been destroyed by Rome, and were. Contemporaneous with the Roman Empire was the Parthian, in which many Jews, Samaritans (Israelites) lived. The Parthian Empire was actually a part of the Persian Empire, that conquered the Assyrian and Babylonian, which covered the area where the Israelites went. But some of the tribes did a mass exodus from the land towards the northwest, rather than be slaves. And Levites probably went pretty much wherever any of them went. And spread out through the world. Common historical sense. And, there is much Jewish/Israeli in the Parthian culture, as it grew out and away from the Persian. The actual Persian had a second period of dominance as well, though, that led to the downfall of the Parthian. Much of the stuff written about what the Romans did was written by Josephus. And he was a captive, so, while telling much truth, had to slant it to suit his Roman conquerors. But it was his writings that I was thinking of when I wrote. But, then again, its doubtful that the genocidal maniacs of history actually exterminated the whole tribe. And it would be interesting to see if there are any records that are verifiable in some manner or other, kept perhaps by some obscure families for generation after generation. Who knows. Not me. Sorry about the off topic folks. Just a little digression, forgive us please.

Guest guest Posted December 29, 2004 Report Share Posted December 29, 2004 Jason, I have a son with autism who suffers from candida overgrowth, and inability to digest casein and gluten. He is gluten and casein free now for over 10 years and that has helped in controlling candida. We do use specific enzymes made by Dr. Houston called Peptyzide, they specifically target gluten and casein. They work great, but we do have to stay on a restricted diet as well. For the candida we have tried various and sundry products such as Yeast fighters by Twin Lab, Candex (another enzyme for candida) oil of oregano, olive leaf extract, garlic, and capryllic acid as well as grapefruit seed extract. Thorne Labs make several products addressing candida (Lactobasillus Sporagenes is a good probiotic, I can't remember the name of their yeast killer product but it should be on their website). Klaire Labs also make good pro biotics for candida. For allergies and asthma we use Nettle Leaf as well as Quericitin or Co Q 10 about 3 times a day. Everything you refer to is also a major problem in many kids with autism, seems to be an auto immune problem! Nagla Hi, New here, glad to find the forum :-) I was wondering if anyone has tried digestive enzyme supplements? I have some severe food sensitivities I was hoping they might address: Gluten: eating causes severe muscle pain/tightness in neck/shoulders/arms. Dairy: eating causes reddish rash along neck and forearms. Sugar: eating causes blisters on hands, and feeds above rash similar to dairy. Alcohol: identical results to sugar, but more intense/profound. Also inhalant allergies/sensitivities, house dust, cat dander, fragrances, etc. all create athsma, reddish/itchy eyes, sinus congestion/sneezy etc. But in general, even though I avoid the above foods, I suffer from muscle pain and fatigue similar to fibromyalgia-like symptoms. Some Drs have diagnosed me with fibromyalgia. When I use my muscles, they fatigue easily and end up hurting afterwards. From my own research, I believe I suffer from Leaky Gut Syndrome, and also know my liver is overloaded and have benefited from liver cleanses/flushes (the olive oil/lemon juice kind). My digestion is horrible and I believe my colon/intestines to be in dire need of cleansing. On that note, I should point out that the dairy + sugar + alcohol problems seem to be classic Candida sensitivities. So my questions are: Do I need to first get the Candida under control? Or could I not have Candida at all, rather severe lack of enzyme problems mimicking Candida? I was thinking of starting to take ThreeLac for the Candida, but want to make sure I really need it, and if so, that I can take enzymes simultaneously. Or is it foolish to think about anything before properly cleaning out the colon? Here¹s some interesting info on enzymes and their connection to overall health: http://www.nexusmagazine.com/articles/Enzymes1.html Long, but an interesting read for sure. Mind blowing @ times! So does anyone have any info, experience or advise? Thanks! :-) _jason_ P.S. Here are some conditions supposedly associated with the decreased levels of each individual enzyme: Protease (digests proteins): anxiety, low blood sugar, kidney problems, water retention; depressed immunity, bacterial and viral infections, cancer, appendicitis, bone problems such as: osteoporosis, arthritis, and bone spurs. Amylase (digests carbohydrates): skin problems (rashes, hives, herpes, canker sores), liver and gallbladder disease. Lipase (digests fats): high cholesterol, obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular problems, high blood pressure, chronic fatigue, spastic colon, and dizziness. Cellulase (digests fiber): gas, bloating, acute food allergies, facial pain or paralysis, candidiasis (yeast infections). Sucrase (digests sugars): lung problems, asthma, bronchitis, seizures, hyperactivity, mood swings, insomnia, depression, chronic diarrhea, and dizziness.

Hi Nagla, Thanks for all the info. It sounds though even though you have a multifaceted approach, your son still suffers? I have been gluten/casien free now for over a year, but I was hoping to not have to stay that way forever. And yes, my problems definitely seem to be immune-related. I have to admit I am very intimidated by all the info out there, and with the fact that I have tried about everything under the sun over the last 6 years, all to pretty much no effect. The biggest impact anything has made is getting rid of gluten. It was causing me major physical pain! But I am 100% determined to beat this, and restore my health. I am only 30 for crying out loud! :-) Thanks again, and Happy New Year! _jason_ _________ ________ _______ _____ ____ ___ __ _ _ _ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 10, 2009 Report Share Posted April 10, 2009 Recently I've been studying digestive enzymes. What sparked my interest was that Ayurveda says that most disease begins as a result of poor digestion. Since enzymes are responsible for digestion it only makes sense to study them. The main digestive enzymes are Amylase for carbohydrates, Protease for protein, and Lipase for lipids/fats. As I read about enzymes some striking correlations stand out regarding the doshas. In general, difficulty digesting carbohydrates looks like it may create vata problems, difficulty digesting proteins looks like it may create pitta problems, and difficulty digesting lipids/fats looks it it may create kapha problems. Therefore, it seems to me that using supplemental plant-based enzymes would be most beneficial in regulating the doshas. I was wondering if anyone any experience or opinions on the Ayurvedic use of digestive enzymes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 enzymes can be stimulated, by many medicines, Thirikadugu, Ashta choornam, Baskara lavanam, Praval panchamirthum jeeragathi rasayanam. As you say , jeeragam , ossimum, peper , ginger , cloves,chinnamom,yastimadu and a lot of plants help in the process of digeation.

Guest guest Posted April 11, 2009 Report Share Posted April 11, 2009 Dear Scott Your line of thinking may be right but in my opinion mixing of allopathic principles and Ayurvedic Principles won't help any sciences. Ayurveda said all diseases are due to Manda Agni. Here Agni means the factor responsible not only for digestion in elimentary canal but also for all types of metabolisam in the human being. Manda is a relative term. Manda means slow in action. This could be a prakruti [ physiology] or Vikruti [ Pathology]. Manda Agni [ slow metabolisam] is a Prakruti [ physiology] when it is since birth and is termed as Vikruti [ Pathology] when aquired after birth. Hence aquired slow metabolisam causes disease. Exagareted VATA, PITTA or KAFA are the basic causes of altered metabolisam. Kafa causes slow metabolisam while Vata causes irregular metabolisam where as Pitta causes more speedy metabolisam. Ultimate end product of deranged metabolisam is Pathognomic product. Hence regulation of Dosha will regulate Agni [ metabolisam].

Guest guest Posted April 13, 2009 Report Share Posted April 13, 2009 The definition of allopathy is, " A method of treating disease with remedies that produce effects different from those caused by the disease itself. " These enzymes are plant-based, cultivated and extracted by natural means, and are not synthetic. They are also naturally occurring in the human digestive system. They are allopathic only in the sense that they are used supplementally to overcome a deficiency. It seems to me Ayurvedic herbal remedies would be be far more allopathic in that they are treating a disease by applying the opposite principle with a substance not otherwise found in the human body. Certainly physicians in ancient times used papaya for it's ability to help in the digestion of meat but did not understand the reason for this is it contains the enzyme papain. Similarly pineapple contains bromelain. One of my teachers of Ayurveda said that Ayurveda is a natural system of medicine that is constantly evolving and open to the inclusion of other ideas as long as they are not a violation of natural law. I'm only postulating that digestive enzymes may be substances worth looking at from an Ayurvedic perspective and inquiring if anyone on this forum has done so. ___________ Your line of thinking may be right but in my opinion mixing of allopathic principles and Ayurvedic Principles won't help any sciences.
