Nattokinase in Virastop

[Guest guest]

Hi, just looked up

Virastop in a search,

found it is high portease

and sea minerals and

nattokinase, an enzyme

derived from fermented

soybeans. Might this not

cause a problem with those

reactive to soy products?

And why take another

enzyme product when we are

already getting them in

Houston's enzymes?

Couldn't we just take more

of the protease Enzymes

and get the same effect? I

didn't know what Virastop

was but was surprised to

find it's enzymes. The

Nattokinase claims to be a

blood-systemic enzyme...

ia this different form

other digestive enzymes?

Surely they all work to

clean the blood too? Just

wondering as I was

thinking of buying it for

an anti-viral I think my

grandkids need but now

think we'll stick with Oil

of Oregano, G(friut)SE,

cinnamom oil... such as

that. Surely they must be

as effective? Still taking

all with Houston's

enzymes, of course. The

Virastop says it has

300,000 units of protease

in it... have to check

Houston's site to find the

amounts in theirs... as

grandkids have the supply

and aren't living close

by. Again, just wondering.

Not a Virastop expert here but I'll give it a shot. Nattokinase is

an ezyyme that work on fibrinogen in the blood -- reducing clotting

and inflamation (allow the platelets to be slippery). It is also

listed as a subtilisin-like serine protease. The high level of

protease allows Virastop to work on almost all proteins as long as

they are not components of living cells. Viruses are cell parasites

consisting of nucleic acids covered by a protein film -- so once the

protease works on the cell wall, the virus is " exposed " and dies.

AFP chewables provides 16,500 HUT Protease

where 1 Virastop provides 150,000 HUT Protease

It's tough to compare enzymes from reading the labels, though.

HNI AFP Peptizyde did have an anti-viral effect on my kids, but it was

nothing close to the benefit I saw with Virastop, and I had to give a

LOT of AFP to notice anything.

You can certainly give a lot of AFP, see if you notice any good

benefits. Give it on an empty stomach if you want it to work as an

anti-viral.

Yes, this is my understanding as well. Nattokinase is a special

protease. There are oodles of different proteases and while some

overlap, others are very specific. This is the same reason there were

tons of protease enzymes on the market for a long time, but yet it

wasn't until 5-7 years ago that certain blends were finally developed

for the casein-gluten issue. If any old protease would do, the

problem would have been resolved a very long time ago.

Nattokinase is an enzyme that specializes in breaking down excess

fibrin. A connection to inflammation is that when the body responds

to inflammation, fibrin may be provoked to form unnecessarily. This

excess fibrin 'clutter' can be related to circulatory problems, pain,

and other problems. Nattokinase in the food natto and nattokinase as

an enzyme supplement have been found to help reduce this excess

fibrin, help with blood pressure, improve circulation, and reduce

pain. It is used and promoted more for body-wide problems as opposed

to food digestion. Lots of groups and companies have been studying it

for several decades. I had very good success with ViraStop. It helped

in way that taking tons of other proteases over the years did not.

P.S. I have never tasted natto.

Is ViraStop what ended up controlling your migraines?

I had a visual migraine that lasted for several weeks, and had started

taking the ViraStop a couple days ago -- just one with each meal --

and I am feeling much better (so far). I decided to take it because

of its ability of serratiopeptase to break up immune complexes. I was

assuming that I was having allergic reactions to more foods.

But I see how the nattokinase would help with the clotting tendencies

in migraine!

I seem to recall that you mentioned earlier this year possibly doing

a VS protocol for your son over the summer months. Would you be

able to share what results, if any, came of that? Or did I just

dream this up?

>>>>, Is ViraStop what ended up controlling your migraines?

The Peptizyde initially helped prevent my migraines as long as I took

my enzyme and migraine med. But after the ViraStop, the migraines

pretty much stopped without enzymes all the time and without the

medication. I still take a low dose of the med for prevention but can

miss several days without a problem. Before the ViraStop, I had

exactly 48 hours before the pain would set in so bad I would be in the

corner banging *my* head on the floor!

>>>I had a visual migraine that lasted for several weeks, and had

Wow! That is totally awesome. The trouble with head pain is that when

your head is out of gear, you can't get anything done at all.
