Guest guest Posted April 10, 2006 Report Share Posted April 10, 2006 My son is doing GREAT on the No-Fenol. The Peptizyde didn't seem to help him much and actually made things worse because I used them and tried foods I normally don't feed him--soy and casein--and he wasn't tolerating them. I want to try the Zyme Prime, but he sees the allergist tomorrow to first confirm no allergy to Aspergillus. > > Are all 3 of the Houston's enzymes needed to be beneficial?

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 The pain may be in your large intestine. The intestine has a curve below your ribs on both sides, and gas may stay there causing pain. I'm suffering from irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and these pains are familiar to me.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 What plant-based enzymes do you recommend? ________________________________ From: algaelady1 <carol@...> candidiasis Sent: Tue, February 1, 2011 8:28:27 AM Subject: Re: Enzymes question  Make sure you are taking only plant-based enzymes because they replace the enzymes that are found in food. Your food is lacking in enzymes if it's heated to 118 deg. or above. Your body makes enzymes, but it can't make plant-based enzymes. So make sure you are taking the plant-based kind, because they work in a larger range of pH levels. Don't bother with pancreatic enzymes from an animal source. They will work only in an alkaline pH of about 7.8 to 8.4. This is fine for people who tend to be too alkaline, but pancreatic enzymes won't work at all in people who tend to be too acid (which most people are). Papaya enzymes are not as effecive as plant enzymes because papaya works at an optimal temperature of 105 degrees F, which is warmer than normal body temperature of 98.6 degrees. Bromelian or pineapple enzymes are even less effective because they work at an optimal temperature of 130 degrees. If you get a good plant-based enzyme it will work in pH of 2 to 12. And do the pudding test to make sure they're working - open up a capsule and stir it into some pudding. It should liquify the pudding in just a minute or so, and if it doesn't it's not going to work in your body either. There are many cheap brands that are so full of extra filler and they just don't do anything.

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 What about ox bile. Does that help with digestion?

Guest guest Posted February 1, 2011 Report Share Posted February 1, 2011 Yes it does. Supplementing your body with ox bile or any other type of bile won't do you good. Only gets gets you a barf bag ! You need to fix why your body is not producing the bile it needs. Get to the source of the problem. Sent from my BlackBerry® by Boost Mobile Re: Enzymes question Doesn't your liver make bile? I don't know about ox bile, or why anyone would want to take it. To me it sounds pretty disgusting. Carol > What about ox bile.

Guest guest Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 One of docs prescribed me Ox bile because my gallbladder is sluggish.
