Special Precautions of Amylase

Benefits and uses of Amylase are

  • May Help Lower Autoimmune and Inflammation Responses : One study on digestive enzymes and autoimmune diseases, found that these enzymes could help slow the aggregations of antigens (molecules that trigger immune responses), as well as the resulting tissue damage from the heightened conglomeration of antibodies (immune system proteins that neutralize foreign cells). Some scientists are looking into the strong possibility that enzymes such as amylase can play a role in boosting immunomodulatory activity halting these strong immune states.
  • Anti-inflammation : Many European research groups are actively studying enzymes such as amylase. Oral enzymes are even being used in European countries in place of anti-inflammatory drugs. Studies show that oral enzymes can be as effective in reducing inflammation associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, as well as other inflammation-based imbalances. Several placebo-controlled comparison studies found that patients with rheumatic diseases taking enzymes experienced some analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects. These studies confirm that enzyme preparations can be just as effective as non-steroidal, commonly prescribed anti-inflammatory drugs, without many of the harmful side effects.
  • Enzyme therapy is even being studied in Switzerland for its uses as a supportive treatment of cancer. The amylase enzyme in particular was found to show amazing abilities in inhibiting the growth of tumor cells with metastatic capacities. The Swiss research team concluded these astounding results of the study: “Enzyme therapy can reduce the adverse effects caused by radiotherapy and chemotherapy. There is also evidence that, in some types of tumors, survival may be prolonged. The beneficial effect of systemic enzyme therapy seems to be based on its anti-inflammatory potential.”
  • Lessens Aging Effects : While many scientists disagree on the question of whether or not enzyme production decreases as we age, one laboratory study found that pancreatic amylase decreased by 41% in aging rats. Similarly, a human study done in Argentina found that amylase and lipase secretion decreased in women over 45 years of age, but they actually increased in men of the same age.
