We all experience pain. But whether it's due to injury or illness, pain can be debilitating and hinder our freedom.

Who should take Serrapeptase?

If you suffer from chronic inflammation or pain, Serrapeptase acts as an anti-inflammatory. It does not have the side effects associated with NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as salicylate and ibuprofen). In cases of swelling, it can reduce water retention (edema) and post-operative swelling, and help relieve sinus problems such as sinusitis or throat conditions.

Research has shown that Serrapeptase can also help break down and remove other types of tissues. Serrapeptase has been used to support antibiotics because it can dissolve bacterial "biofilms" (a common cause of persistent infections) and increase the absorption and concentration of antibiotics in the body.

A powerful anti-inflammatory

  • It is clinically proven to reduce pain in the body.
  • It is beneficial for arthritis, joint pain, muscle pain, sports injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome.
  • It improves blood circulation and reduces swelling and inflammation.
  • It is a natural alternative to ibuprofen.
  • It is ideal for nasal congestion and sinusitis.
  • It reduces mucus and is beneficial for congestion and infection of the sinuses, ears, nose, and throat.
  • It relieves swelling and pain from dental surgery.

Enerex Serrapeptase was the first product of its kind, launched in the Canadian market in 2004. It has been proven safe and effective as it acts as an anti-inflammatory and pain reliever, similar to NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs like aspirin, ibuprofen, and naproxen), but without the harmful effects on the stomach. Enerex uses a DRcap (delayed-release capsule), free of chemicals and solvents, which better masks odors and tastes, minimizing the risk of reflux, rather than an enteric-coated capsule. This allows serrapeptase to pass through the stomach to the small intestine where the enzyme is then released. For optimal results, serrapeptase should be taken on an empty stomach.

What do a stuffy nose, an infection, and post-operative swelling have in common?

They are all initially caused by inflammation.

Our body has a love-hate relationship with inflammation: it's a natural response necessary to protect the body and promote the healing process, but it also causes pain and swelling, mucus buildup, and increases infection symptoms, including redness, burning, and heat. Excessive inflammation in the body can also limit joint function, destroy bones, and lead to heart and nervous system disorders.

How does Serrapeptase work?

Serrapeptase is a proteolytic enzyme, meaning it breaks down proteins and protein by-products, non-living tissues. Serrapeptase is capable of breaking down dead tissues without damaging living tissues.

Serrapeptase also acts as a mucolytic enzyme, meaning it breaks down or thins mucus. It is most effective in cases of chronic sinusitis, inflammation or swelling of the tissues lining the sinuses. This ability allows it not only to clear mucus but also fluids, enabling the body to recover more quickly from injury and dental surgery.

Research has demonstrated the effectiveness of serrapeptase in reducing pain, inflammation, and swelling associated with osteoarthritis, joint pain, carpal tunnel syndrome, post-operative swelling, and dental surgery pain.

Enerex Serrapeptase uses a high-activity enzyme for greater efficacy, and our special delayed-release capsule protects the enzyme from destruction by stomach acid to ensure you get the relief you need.
