Fibrinolytic enzymes are systemic enzymes that eat away the excess fibrin that forms scar tissue, adhesions, and growths. As we get older, these enzymes decrease and wounds leave bigger scars. The conditions like uterine fibroids, fibrocystic breasts, and the hardening, shrinking, and decreased function of aging organs are a result of an accumulation of fibrin in the body due to a depletion of fibrinolytic enzymes. Excess fibrin is responsible for the spider web of scar tissue across the inside of blood vessels that forms the matrix upon which arterial plaque is laid down and can also form in the kidneys contributing to high blood pressure, and in the brain causing poor brain function and senility. Similarly, the pain and suffering associated with fibromyalgia is caused by an overgrowth of fibrin in the muscles, commonly known as fibrosis. Fibrinolytic enzymesdissolve the excess fibrin in the muscles providing increased flexibility and blessed relief of pain.
