Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 Do you have a nasal sprayer you could put water in?

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 I put him in the shower. It actually seems to have helped some. His voice is pretty raspy now though. I'm just scared that it could do some damage to the lung tissue. Any thoughts?

Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 Hi Wende; The enzymes will not damage his lungs, there is plenty of mucus and fluid there to wash away any enzyme that made it there. His throat is raspy because the fresh layer of tissue cells are probably exposed (the protease enzymes can debride the dead tissue layer on top) and it is just irritated. The shower is a good idea. A saline solution sprayed into the nose several times may help as well. He should be fine. We do caution that enzymes not be inhaled, which is why we add things like rice bran or MCT oil, to keep the dust from being airborne.

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 Has he had a similar reaction when actually taking the enzymes? I have discovered I am allergic to my son's enzymes though I'm not sure if it is the Peptizyde or Zyme Prime (SCD versions). All I know is when I open the capsules, I cough, sneeze, get watery eyes and have difficulty breathing. I have never taken them though one time when I made them into chocolates, I licked my finger. I had such a hard time breathing my husband wanted to take me to emergency. If your son takes them and doesn't have a reaction he is probably not allergic but I just wanted to warn you if he has never taken them and you saw a reaction with him breathing the powder, I would suggest you proceed carefully. > > My son just inhaled the Zyme Prime and won't quit coughing... any > advice?? > Thanks, > Wende Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 Dr. Houston: I just have to thank you for taking the time to actually call my home today to check on my son. You definitely went out of your way to take the time to figure out who I was, what our phone number was and then make the call. Thank you so much!
