Serrapeptase
Serrapeptase is an enzyme that was first discovered in the intestine of silkworms. This enzyme is necessary in order for the silkworm to dissolve the hard cocoon it is surrounded by, when it is ready to emerge as a moth. The silkworm also uses this enzyme to allow it to feed on tough mulberry leaves. These days, serrapeptase supplements are not derived from silkworms; the enzyme is derived from a natural fermentation process. Serrapeptase is a protease enzyme; that means it has the ability to digest protein. Research has shown this remarkable enzyme can help to dissolve non-living tissue in the body such as cysts, swellings, plaque and scar tissue.
Serrapeptase helps to reduce inflammation in the body
Excessive inflammation is a feature of just about every disease and is present in any condition where pain, fatigue and fluid retention are present. But what causes inflammation? These are the most common causes:
- Elevated blood sugar. Certainly diabetics experience a great deal of inflammation in their bodies because of elevated blood sugar, but you don’t have to be a diabetic to experience this. Regularly consuming sugar, grains and high glycemic load foods will flood your bloodstream with glucose. Sugar is sticky and it can bind to proteins in your body and damage them.
- Infections. Any type of bacterial, viral, fungal or parasitic infection raises inflammation because your immune cells produce massive quantities of inflammatory chemicals as they try to fight the infection. This is particularly a problem in chronic, long term infections.
- Food allergy, intolerance and sensitivity. Whenever you consume a food you are sensitive to, your body behaves as though you swallowed something harmful, such as a virus or bacteria. As your immune system tries to cope with this scenario, it produces a host of inflammatory chemicals. This can become a significant problem if you unknowingly eat this food(s) every day.
- Stress. Unfortunately the hormones your body produces while you are stressed cause inflammatory damage, free radical damage and a great deal of wear and tear to your body. Magnesium helps to counter some of this damage.
- Lack of sleep or poor quality sleep. Good solid sleep is one of the most powerful anti-inflammatory remedies there is, and it’s free and feels great. Unfortunately most people know this but try as they might, they can’t get good sleep consistently. Insomnia or just poor quality sleep is endemic in modern society.
- Lack of antioxidants in your diet. All of the various conditions listed above cause your body to use up vitamins, minerals and antioxidants at a much faster rate. The problem is, most people don’t replenish their bodies with nutrients sufficiently. Ideally you would consume a raw vegetable salad for lunch and dinner each day and include a glass of raw vegetable juice most days of the week.
- Injuries, accidents and surgery are a major physical stress on the body and these processes all generate a great volume of inflammatory chemicals. These inflammatory chemicals are very useful in acute conditions and are necessary for the recovery process. Unfortunately many patients are left with chronic pain, swelling and immobility because the inflammatory process has continued for too long. Serrapeptase is excellent for these people.
How Serrapeptase can help
Ideally you could reduce the level of inflammation in your body by addressing each of the points mentioned above. Unfortunately, this is not always possible and sometimes the source of inflammation cannot be identified and remains hidden.
Serrapeptase basically works by giving your insides a good clean up. Being a protein digesting enzyme, it helps to clear out protein deposits that are not serving a useful purpose in your body. It has anti-inflammatory, anti-oedemic (reduces fluid retention) and fibrinolytic activity (helps to break down blood clots). It can help to clear mucus, fluid, blood clots, debris and immune complexes from your body. In this way it helps to reduce pain, improve mobility and increase energy. Serrapeptase helps to keep arteries clean and clear because it reduces the inflammation in arteries which is what promotes cholesterol accumulation and narrowing of the arteries.
How should Serrapeptase be taken?
Serrapeptase must be taken on an empty stomach in order to obtain the systemic anti-inflammatory benefits. If you consume it with a meal, your body will use it to digest the food in your intestines. Therefore most people find it easiest to take serrapeptase first thing in the morning. You can eat half an hour later. A typical starting dose is between 125 000 and 250 000 IU per day.

I have gone through your comments and I could see that you discouraged people from using serrapeptase for fibroid. May I know why? I'm asking because I already made up my mind to buy it before stumbling on your blog.
Dr Cabot and many other doctors associate fibroids with estrogen dominance, which is very common during perimenopause.
Fibroids often self-resolve post menopausally, when estrogen declines.
To balance perimenopausal estrogen Dr Cabot recommends Progesterone daily, Femme Phase - 2 capsules twice daily, and Vitamin D - 1 capsule daily.
Serrapeptase is a powerful anti-inflammatory, so may have assisted with the reversal of the lady's fibroids.

My wife's been taking fish oil for her severe dry eyes, and she started taking 125,000 SPU of serrapeptase a day for her ganglion cysts. However, we read that the two should not be taken together due to blood thinning. Is this true? Because she needs to take both. What are her options? Please advise.
Thank you for your time!
We are not aware of how much fish oil being taken every day, and 125 000SPU of Serrapeptase is a very low dose so blood thinning may not be a considerable issue.
If her severe dry eyes are due to Sjogren’s Disease, then daily Selenium is indicated to lower antibody levels.

I have just been diagnosed cysts in ovaries and kidney.Would Serrapeptase help that I could avoid the surgery?I I have also inflammatory in my upper neck.
am 52 .
Thank you.
There are many ways of reducing inflammation, and Serrapeptase is highly effective – 2 capsules twice daily on an empty stomach with water.
Cysts are promoted by body growth promotors and insulin is a potent one.
Carbohydrate rich foods, and industrial seed oils stimulate insulin.
Dairy foods contain ILGF1 so these are also best avoided.
Selenium has long been known to shrink these cysts - 1 capsule daily.

My husband has just found out he has nodules on his thyroid and 1 of them is calcified. Will taking serrapeptase help get rid of this?
Thanks so much.
Annie
Calcification anywhere in the body is an indication of calcium in the wrong place and often there is bone thinning so is your husband taking medication for stomach acid?
Rather than Serrapeptase we recommend he begin taking Super Vitamin K – 1 capsule daily.
400mg Magnesium as powder or tablets, morning and evening is important to potentiate the Vitamin D in the Vitamin K capsule.
Unfortunately, this is contraindicated if he is taking Warfarin, but is fine with newer antiplatelet medications.

The main cause of kidney disease is sugar dysregulation and diabetes, so reduce carbohydrate consumption to as low as possible and base your diet on low carbohydrate vegetables and good quality protein.

Can you please recommend me what products to order for:
- Endometriosis + endometriotic cyst + estrogen dominance
- Blocked fallopian tubes
(I have to mention that I really want to get pregnant)
- Sinusitis
- Oral candida that keeps coming back after a while
Thank you!
Endometriosis is a combination autoimmune/hormonal imbalance condition so a protocol as is found in Dr Cabot’s Autoimmune Book is called for and also FemPro at the recommended dosage twice daily.
Blocked fallopian tubes are very likely to benefit from Serrapeptase – beginning with 1 capsule daily and gradually increasing to 2 capsules twice daily on an empty stomach.
To assist with pregnancy the autoimmune program, Vitamin D, Iodine, Selenium are beneficial.
You may also get sinusitis benefits with Serrapeptase but if not then consider NAC – 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid stomach irritation.
Remain strict with the Autoimmune protocol and it may assist with the Candida infection.

Serrapeptase is beneficial for those with fertility problems associated with scarring and adhesions in the fallopian tubes, and around the ovaries, as is found with endometriosis.

My son, 31, has Gilbert’s.
He has a healthy diet (gluten free), busy professional life and goes to the gym but suffers with nausea, tummy ache and fatigue at times. He takes good supplements including MegaSpore, digestive enzymes and calcium-d-glycinate. He also does liver flushes when he feels he needs to. Would the Serrapeptase help with lowering the bilirubin?
I appreciate your comments.
Many thanks
Serrapeptase is not an appropriate supplement for Gilbert’s Syndrome.
The supplements your son is taking are not liver centered and we recommend he begin taking Livatone Plus – 2 capsules twice daily, NAC – 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid stomach irritation. Rather than a Gluten Free diet, your son’s liver may benefit from a Ketogenic style diet.

So glad to find your site. I suffered a knee injury May 4, 2022 while playing soccer with the kids which resulted in a torn ACL and rolled inner meniscus. I am aged 41. Without boring you with too many details, bottom line is that surgery was 99 days after the injury, performed just two weeks ago, August 11. At my one-week checkup the doctor said surgery went very well and everything looked good, except that I’ll be battling scar tissue that settled in during that long delay between injury and surgery, even though he successfully manipulated it at complete range while I was under anesthesia. I can feel massive restriction inside my knee while working on weight bearing exercises. I’m getting very little flexion — around 15° — and can’t seem to move past that. It’s still extremely stiff, and I’m quite discouraged. More manipulation under anesthesia is an option. I have recently been reading about serrapeptase and am hopeful that it can help increase my flexion and decrease pain. What dosage do you think is appropriate for this situation?
Many thanks and kind regards,
Dinah
We consider Serrapeptase to be a beneficial supplement wherever scar tissue develops in the body.
To soften the scar tissue, we recommend you start with Vitamin E daily.
Another supplement to encourage better range of movement with far less discomfort is Vitamin C.

My wife experienced a hemorrhage in her eye because the pressure in her eye was high. She lost some of her sight in that eye. She is now taking eye drops to lower the pressure there. Can serrapeptase improve her vision by clearing out the scar tissue caused by the hemorrhage?
We have a number of articles dealing with Glaucoma and we recommend you read them on your wife’s behalf.
Serrapeptase may help clear the scar tissue collecting in her eye.
Vitamin E is also encouraged to soften the scar tissue in her eye.
These recommendations are made not knowing if she is taking any medications that may contraindicate the use of these supplements.

Serrapeptase is a protein and is too large to cross the brain blood barrier, but it is a powerful anti-inflammatory so is still valuable, along with dietary changes to reduce overall inflammation.
Having had an intramural hemorrhage indicates that your blood vessels are weakened and this is best addressed by a daily dose of Vitamin C of 2,000mg in divided doses throughout each day.
To soften scar tissue begin taking Vitamin E – 1 capsule daily with a meal, so natural factors in your body may resolve the scarring.

Your wife’s cyst may be able to be shrunk and Serrapeptase at a dose of 125 000SU to 250 000SU twice daily on an empty stomach is well indicated for this.
To assist in the shrinkage it is important to reverse the growth process and to achieve this we recommend you severely restrict carbohydrates in your diet because they stimulate insulin, which is a growth hormone.
Dairy foods are high in Insulin Like Growth Hormone 1, which is also potentially implicated in growths within the body, so dairy is also best removed from the diet.
Supplementation with Selenium - 1 capsule daily and NAC – 2 capsules twice daily, well away from food with a large glass of water to avoid stomach irritation is recommended to reduce inflammation considerably to assist the shrinkage.

I have seasonal allergies and narrow eustachian tubes that flare up. Upon investigating that, my ent found that I have a mucous retention cyst in one of the sinuses in the front of my face. Would serrapeptase be beneficial?
Serrapeptase is beneficial whenever there is mucous buildup and begin with a dose of 125 000SU daily on an empty stomach. After a week you may increase the dose to 125 000SU twice daily. If this dose is tolerated you may increase the dose to 250 000SU twice daily to clear the mucous faster.
Seasonal allergies tend to flare when high histamine production roccurs in the respiratory and digestive tracts, and by reducing inflammation the response may become less severe and stressful.
Supplements to help include Allergy Relief - 3 to 6 tablets daily, Selenium - 1capsule daily and Glutamine - 1 teaspoonful in water morning and before bed.

Both Serrapeptase and low dose aspirin have the effect of thinning the blood.
Serrapeptase has an advantage in that it does not have the potential for causing gastric bleeding which often occurs with low dose aspirin.

I started Serrapeptase two weeks ago and had no issues the first week. Now the second week my joint where I had a ganglion cyst a while back is killing me. I have been also feeling extremely tired/fatigued throughout the day and very sleepy. Have been taking naps during the day and still able to sleep through the night. I wake up very sleepy as well. Could Serrapeptase be braking down old infections, viruses , dead tissues and therefore making me fatigued and sleepy to heal and process it all? I am taking 120,000 along with 2,000 fu Nattokinase before bed and upon waking up. I am taking it because I had a bruise on my wrist few years ago which resulted in a blood cloth that I am trying to dissolve. Thank you.
Dr Cabot’s Serrapeptase does not come in a 120,000spu dose and your question is best addressed to the company that produced the product you have been taking, because we cannot vouch for the quality of the ingredients and any excipients it may have.

Our research indicates that Serrapeptase is beneficial for the liver and does not exacerbate damage although problems can occur when used in cases of advanced cirrhosis when bleeding problems have developed.
Serrapeptase is very beneficial for livers with fibrosis or mild cirrhosis, with added Vitamin E to soften the coarsened/scar tissue.
If your liver damage does not involve fibrosis of any kind you may get significant benefit from NAC and Livatone Plus.

Rather than Serrapeptase, we recommend you begin taking NAC - 2 capsules twice daily away from food with a large glass of water to avoid stomach distress.
