Re: OT: enzymes and mold?

[Guest guest]

Interesting note about the connection between enzymes and mold. One of the

things my daughter tested positive to during a muscle test process was mold.

We are not real candidates for mold, (new home and non-humid whether), but just

found out that I believe the bath toys which have been around forever may be a

culprit. So amazing how you have to be such a detective for all of this. But

one of the things the homeopath doctor has put her on is enzymes. How might I

know if the enzymes are actually causing a problem? I've seen so much positive

posts about enzymes and had sensed the worst they could do was nothing to help.

Now am seeing this may not be the case.

Thanks,

Kari

about them and the reaction we had and they recommended we not continue with

them. it can be more then just a food, it can be just skin contact and absorbed

into the blood stream, not even involving the leaky gut.<<

Well, they can do alot but not everything, of course. As christel

mentioned, enzymes don't allow a person with celiac to consume gluten

(different thing going on there). If you have a mold allergy or

sensitivity, you might do great with enzymes, or you might not. The

majority do fine with them, but some do not. If in doubt, just skip

the enzymes...or consider pancreatic ones. Or just do a small trial

and see if it helps or not. They also aren't recommended for true

allergies (as opposed to food intolerances).

The extreme specificity of enzymes is what limits negative reactions.

Also, since your body is supposed to be producing digestive enzymes

all the time anyway, then it is built to handle them with plenty of

checks and balances.
