As a lifetime athlete, I excelled in baseball and football. Earned a baseball scholarship to UC Berkeley and turned down an opportunity to play professional baseball when I landed a role on daytime soap opera, “Days of our Lives.” Since then I've kept very busy with modeling and acting - most recently appearing on HBO’s “Hello Ladies.” Walked the runway for numerous clothing companies such as Calvin Klein, Levi's, Oakley, Speedo, and have shot over a dozen national commercials for companies like Michelob Ultra, Geico, Nike, Mizuno and most recently Coppertone. After getting hit and run over by two SUV’s, I thought my career may be over. However through nutrition and relentless hard work, I found myself in better shape physically and mentally because of it, working more than ever before. As an ex-athlete and model, I have always valued the importance of taking care of my body both internally and externally. However it wasn’t until after being involved in a serious car accident that I began to explore making my own skincare products and taking nutrition to the next level. My surgeons insisted that I use crèmes and serums that were loaded with synthetic ingredients and fragrances that I felt were counterproductive in the healing process. So I began to research all natural healing alternatives. Through my research I decided to make my own facial treatment mask that would not only leave you with radiant skin on the outside but it would heal and detoxify you from the inside as well. I have been a nutrition adviser for 10 years, helping people reach their physical goals by writing up diet plans and emphasizing the importance of proper nutrition.

Customer Reviews can be found on the Alitura Website. Here are a selection:  Simply Amazing Kristina on Jun 06, 2014 Alitura is one of the best masks I've tried. This mask produces results equivalent to spa facials, all from the comfort of your own home. It deep cleans, tightens, and leaves your skin refreshed. Simply put....this mask is amazing! Great on aging skin! Sue H. on Jun 06, 2014 I use the Alitura Clay Mask once a week and love the results on my aging skin. It just feels so alive after the mask. I do use the ACV because I like the intensity of it. It just adds that extra zing. Andy, thanks for the care you have taken to select only the purest and most effective ingredients for your product. There is just nothing to compare it to. The perfect mask! Celestial on Jun 05, 2014 I was skeptical at first as every single clay-based mask I've EVER tried has dried out my skin. I assumed my skin was just too sensitive to handle the intense pore-cleansing properties of clay. However, after using Andy's mask for the first time my face didn't feel dry, at all. I thought it was a one-time miracle, must be a fluke...but after two months of twice weekly usage I've found it's no fluke. Not only does this mask deep clean my pores, but the tone of my skin is much more even and radiant and my monthly breakouts have significantly lessened in severity and duration. I mix it with organic milk (moisturizing and skin-lightening) and tone afterwards with a half water, half ACV spritzer. There's a reason every single review gives this mask 5 stars. It's not your ordinary clay mask--it's amazing! Best ever! Ramon Doria on Jun 04, 2014 I have used this product for over a month now and I have been addicted to it (like crossfit, LOL). The result is outstanding, it's almost like paleo. Seriously, this product is safe and all natural. I would recommend this to any one who wants only the best in life.... Life Changing Bruce Childs on May 30, 2014 Your hard work is finally paying off!! This mask is awesome. I've followed your advice for sometime now and actually seeing your dream and products come to life is amazing. I look forward to your other products that you have in the works. Thanks for giving me advice and guidance through my transformation to live a healthier lifestyle. My results have been seen not only by me but othrs have noticed as well. I can't thank you enough. note: always test a tiny portion of any product you purchase first to ensure it is right for you. Example: a dap on your wrist.

The powers of seaweeds have been drawn upon for centuries for their ability to prolong life, prevent disease, impart beauty and health. Worldwide research is continuously being done and brown seaweed has been found to be the most beneficial type. MODIFILAN, is the purest, most natural nutritional supplement made from the brown seaweed Laminaria. Extract contains the life essential properties of Organic Iodine, Alginates, Fucoidan and Laminarin. Worldwide scientific studies and clinical research of these elements showed: *Organic Iodine feeds the Thyroid Gland, which controls metabolism and promotes maturation of the nervous system. Iodine is important for thyroid disorders, wherever underactive or overactive. *Alginate is a natural absorbent of radioactive elements, heavy metals and free radicals. It has the unique ability of binding heavy metals and radioactive elements to its own molecules. As the Alginate cannot be broken down by the bile or saliva and cannot be absorbed by the body, it is secreted from the body together with the heavy metals and radioactive substances. *Fucoidan causes certain types of rapidly growing cells to self-destruct. Promoting apoptosis, Fucoidan helps to naturally eliminate harmful cells from the organism. *Laminarin is a polysaccharide helpful for energy levels. These elements, treasured in brown seaweeds, are enhanced by special cold-temperature extraction technology, which does not break their molecular structure. And MODIFILAN is not just another dry seaweed product - it is highly concentrated product. FORTY pounds of raw seaweed is needed to make ONE pound of MODIFILAN. What does MODIFILAN do? - feeds the immune system. - Can help protect against thyroid issues. - Helps to decrease high blood sugar and harmonise cholesterol levels. - Detoxifies the body from heavy metals, radioactive elements, free radicals and toxins. - Helps those who are overweight by improving the function of the gastro-intestinal tract. - Improves the structure of hair and nails and help them to grow. - Help to detoxify smokers from strontium and cadmium. 

Deer Antler is mainly used as a rejuvenating and strengthening agent. Short term use is believed to quickly build strength and power, while consistent long-term use is believed to re-build and maintain deep life force, preserve youthfulness and to enhance longevity. Like all yang herbs, deer antler is used to strengthen the back, knees and waste, but deer antler is considered to be the most powerful such agent and is usually the main herb in any formula in which it is included. It is used to strengthen the skeletal structure in both adults and children. It is also widely used to improve mental power. Deer antler has also been demonstrated to improve cardiovascular function and to strengthen the nervous system. Herbal extracts are an excellent way of getting the nutrition and goodness from a herb, without the trouble of sometimes elaborate preparation. They are also a way of getting the goodness in as concentrated a form as possible. How are herbal extracts made? The raw herbs are prepared by hot water extraction, the water is then evaporated off until all that is lelf is the essential oils and active ingredients. These are then bound together in an excipient, small amounts of non-GM corn flour. This is the most pure and unadulterated way to enjoy tonic herbal extracts possible. Purity: this vegan product is free from wheat, gluten, soya, added sugar, salt, test, lactose, preservatives, or any other fillers. Not tested on animals. Directions: these tonic herbs are food grade and safe to use as you would culinary herbs. They can be added to any foods or drinks. Suggested uses are either to add 1/2 a teaspoon to a healthy juice or smoothie, or to prepare them as an instant tonic tea, but simply putting 1/2 a teaspoon in a cup or mug, and adding hot water. Recommended upper limit: do not exceed 1 teaspoon of herbal extract today unless guided to by a qualified healthcare professional.

Deer Placenta The quintessential Jing tonic   Placenta is an embryonic tissue formed during pregnancy from the cells of the fetus. The unique biological compounds in placenta ensure that the fetus is supplied with the necessary nutrients and oxygen needed for successful growth. Chinese antiaging and restorative formulations have often relied upon placenta as a primary ingredient in formulations designed to rejuvenate the body. Deer placenta has been accepted as the premier source of placenta. Deer is considered to be a “higher order” animal, and deer placenta very closely resembles human placenta chemically. It is extraordinarily nourishing and is completely safe to consume.     Jing and Placenta   To appreciate placenta, you have to understand Jing, our fundamental life force. Jing is the primal energy of life. It is closely associated with our genetic potential, and thus is intimately associated with the aging process. The quantity of Jing determines both our lifespan and the ultimate vitality of our life. We are given a certain amount of Jing by our parents when we are born. We deplete our Jing through our living. When we run low on Jing, we show the signs of aging, and when we run out of Jing, we die. Because of its original role of nurturing new life, placenta is considered to be the most profound substance for replenishing Jing. At conception, Jing of the mother and father merge and become one within the new fetal cell and this new life takes up residence in the womb.  This united essence creates an energy which forms the foundation of the new human being's life.  It is called pre-natal Jing.  During pregnancy, the fetus relies upon the mother to nurture and protect the pre-natal Jing.  The placenta is the source of this nourishment. Taking deer placenta as a deep Jing restorative supplement is like plugging yourself into the wall socket and recharging your life battery. Deer placenta provides certain substances that have been shown to have a profound positive influence on the aging process.   IGF-1 and Hyaluronic Acid IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-1) is a protein that promotes tissue growth, organ health, and healthy blood sugar levels. Almost every cell in the human body is affected by IGF-1, especially cells in muscle, cartilage, bone, liver, kidney, nerves, skin, and lungs. In addition to the beneficial insulin-like effects, IGF-1 can also regulate cell growth and development, especially in nerve cells, as well as cellular DNA synthesis. IGF1 mediates most of the growth-promoting and metabolic effects of growth hormone. Our body's demand for IGF-1 never decreases, but aging is accompanied by a loss of IGF-1. As our IGF-1 levels decrease, the physical exuberance and vitality that accompany youthfulness also recede. IGF-1 is a natural constituent of deer placenta, where it is found in high levels (IGF-1 is also found in deer antler). It is assumed that the deer placenta IGF-1, being a very large molecule, when consumed orally, is digested in the small intestines and broken down into amino acids and other components. The complete set of components provided by deer placenta of the IGF-1 may be used by the body to enhance innate IGF-1 production. Deer placenta’s complete amino acid profile is extraordinarily close to that of humans. And deer placenta is rich in hyaluronic acid, an essential component in many tissues of the body. Hyaluronic acid helps to support healthy skin, eyesight and joint function. A 150 pound man has roughly half an ounce of hyaluronic acid in his body, one third of which is turned over (degraded and must be re-supplied or re-made) every day.     NEW ZEALAND, a Di Tao™ source of deer placenta New Zealand is free from the major animal diseases found throughout the world. These diseases include “Mad Cow” disease (bovine spongiform encephalopathy), foot and mouth disease, rabies, chronic wasting disease, etc. Dragon Herbs regards New Zealand to be a Di Tao™ source of deer placenta. Its pristine environment contributes greatly to the health and vitality of New Zealand deer. We only use placenta that has been certified by the Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry of Australian government for pharmaceutical purposes.   Traditional Function: Tonifies Yin Jing, Yang Jing, Blood and Qi    Who can use it? Adults   Concentration: 20:1 extract   Specifications: 60 capsules 500 mg each   Precautions: If you are under a doctor’s care for any pre-existing medical condition, consult your physician before using this or any dietary supplement   Ingredients: New Zealand Deer Placenta (Cervus Elephus placenta)   Other Ingredients: Rice powder   Usage As a restorative: As a dietary supplement, take Deer Placenta for 100 days, 2-3 capsules 2 times a day. Once or twice a year: As a dietary supplement, take Deer Placenta for 30 days, 2-3 capsules 2 times a day.   Remember Ron Teeguarden’s “First Rule of Tonic Herbalism,” summed up in a single word –Compliance. If you don’t take the herbs, they won’t work.”

How does the Terminator Zapper work?The zapper's circuitry is built around a 555 timer integrated circuit which emits a nice, positive offset square wave of direct current from a nine-volt battery (stepped down to around 4.5volts and 3.5milliamps) at a frequency of about 20,000 times per second. "Positive offset" is a wave form that has alternating current characteristics. This may be important in the long run because it won't alter the body's natural electromagnetic field polarity. Dr. Clark states that you can get adequate results from simply holding an electrode from one battery terminal in one hand and tapping an electrode from the other battery terminal with the other for ten minutes, but that the zapper's frequency is simply a more efficient way to get the current into the body. The Terminator Zapper has been manufactured by Don Croft according to Dr. Hulda Clark's circuit.What is the Terminator Zapper?The TERMINATOR Zapper consists of a plastic box measuring 1" x 2" x 3" with a switch, an indicator light, and two electrodes (copper discs) glued onto the bottom of the box, and designed to contact bare skin, preferably under the clothing for ease of use. Inside, it contains an electrical circuit that pulses the electrical output, crystals, a magnet, an orgone generator, and a mobius coil.The TERMINATOR Zapper uses a frequency of 15Hz because low frequencies seem to be much more efficient than higher ones at getting current through the skin, and 15Hz produces a mildly euphoric feeling, which encourages one to use the zapper.The TERMINATOR Zapper uses a 9v battery and an electric circuit modified from the one promoted by Dr. Hulda Clark. Improvements include an amethyst gemstone in the line to the positive electrode and a garnet in the line to the negative electrode as well as an orgone generator. These have an integrating, modulating effect, according to extensive anecdotal evidence. Though difficult to explain in conventional scientific terms. People who had been uncomfortable wearing a zapper without these crystals have said that the crystals make it pleasurable to wear this zapper. The crystals enhance the electromagnetic energy of the zapper and stimulate energy flow in the body.Orgone Generators (new invention) are made by putting metal particles in an organic matrix. The close proximity of crystals, and the current passing through it, seems to multiply and focus orgone from the generator. Dr. Wilhelm Reich designed devices that accumulate energy from the environment and focus it into the body. In this configuration the electric current, crystals and orgone work synergistically. Terminator Zapper InstructionsCarefully take off the back of the Terminator and place a 9v battery inside the battery area. Be careful to not pull on any wires. Place the back part of the Terminator back on the product. The product does not come with a battery and will not work unless a new battery is placed inside.Turn the switch to the on position. You should see the green light bulb come on. Place the zapper against your skin (both of the copper discs must be touching bare skin!), under clothing or under an ace bandage, tennis sweatband, etc., and leave it on as long as you like.The success of your zapping depends mainly on how often you use it and the length of time of the sessions. We suggest wearing it around the clock for the first month and then whenever you feel like it after that. Wearing it on the sole of my foot all night gives me a very restful sleep-maybe because the body focuses on healing and repair during sleep.VERY IMPORTANT: For the first few days or so wear it in a glove or sock at night, against palm or sole, until your pH is normal again, if it stings on the skin of other parts of your body. Zapping apparently alkalizes the body to its proper pH after the bulk of parasites in the blood are killed. In many cases this alkalizination begins within 2 or 3 days, but it may take longer depending on the toxicity of the body. Just MOVE THE ZAPPER WHEN IT STARTS TO ITCH and don't sleep while zapping on any other body part EXCEPT ON PALM OR SOLE, until the itching no longer occurs.Cleaning: Only use NON-ABRASIVE METAL CLEANER on the copper discs when necessary. After you've detoxed, the discs won't look gross any more. If you don't move it when it stings the acids in your blood will burn a hole or ulcerate the skin.The Terminator Zapper comes with a 24 month replacement warranty, unless you break the switch. Then it's £20.00 to replace the switch.Recommended UsePlace device on the bottom of the left or right foot with the copper discs touching the skin. Use a grip bandage to wrap the Terminator II in place or place inside of sock. Turn on and go to sleep. Use every other night.Long periods of zapping are sometimes crucial in certain situations. While other zapper makers have increased the current of their zappers to address this, their zappers are uncomfortable to wear. This new design incorporates the electrodes on the surface of the case to eliminate the need for wires, paste, and water/salt solutions. Terminator Zapper FAQ's1. What is the Terminator Zapper?The Terminate Zapper is a zapper. A zapper is defined by Dr. Hulda Clark as a battery operated DC pulse (positive offset) generator with an output amplitude of 5 to 10 volts (open circuit) and a frequency between 10 Hz and 500KHz (10 to 500,000 pulses per second), with a current limited output.2. What does a zapper do?According to Dr. Clark's research and our personal experience, the tiny zapper current subtly energizes the bloodstream. 3. Is it safe?Yes. Zappers have been used by hundreds of thousands of people of all ages for a number of years, with no harm reported.  Dr. Clark recommends against using the zapper early in pregnancy or with anyone with a pacemaker.4. What are your recommendations for the use of the Zapper?Dr. Clark recommends daily use for the first month, with regular use after that. Many people use it every other day or so for maintenance.5. How Do I Know It's Working?The green light should be on and a fresh battery in place. In order to test for current, place MOISTENED lips on BOTH copper discs in order to make a closed circuit. It is IMPORTANT that the lips are touching BOTH discs and that the lips be MOISTENED. There will be a tingle sensation when the battery is fresh. 6. When Do I Change the Battery? When the light goes dim or no longer lights up there is still enough current to kill parasites, but it's best to put a fresh battery in. Just unscrew the back and put the new battery in the clip. The zappers all use standard 9v batteries. An alkaline battery will last for around 100 hours of zapping; a non-alkaline one will last about 40 hours. 8. What Is Orgone and How Is It Generated? Orgone is the name that Dr. Wilhelm Reich gave to what others have called 'chi's,' 'ether,' 'life force,' 'animal magnetism,' etc. Dr. Reich was the first western scientist to develop technology around this energy. The way he came to this is fascinating and will no doubt be taught in schools after the censorship regarding his life and work has ended. Orgone is present throughout the universe as energy, life and matter potential. Dr. Reich developed a way to accumulate and concentrate this healing medium. The accumulator can be contaminated, though, when 'dead orgone' is present. Dead orgone is neutralized by running water & Dr. Reich's 'cloudbuster' was able to remove it from the environment and channel it into running water. He used his cloudbusters to normalize rainfall and remove smog from the atmosphere. More recently, someone found a way to generate orgone. Orgone is the medium through with radionics works and is not electromagnetic, therefore isn't bound by time or space considerations as EM energies are. Orgone can be seen against a monochrome background (blue sky is best) when your mind is in an alpha state. It's seen as tiny currents that appear and disappear within a second or so. Some are darker than the background, some are lighter. This is similar to what you'd see from the effects of straining on the retina, but the latter traces the blood vessels on the retina, but you'll find that the two processes actually look very different.9. What Are The Benefits of the 15 Hz Frequencies?Low frequencies, in general, seem to be more effective at getting the electric current through the skin. It's the current that kills parasites, so more of it will kill more of them and quicker. All of our zapper models now use this frequency. 15 cycles per second is a 'feel-good' frequency as well, which encourages us to wear our zappers more.

FibroVera is a proprietary blend of microbial and botanical components selected to support uterine and breast health. Reproductive health is an important topic for men and women alike. For women however, understanding and feeling confident about the body and the ebb and flow of the menstrual cycle is almost always a daily concern. FibroVera is a gentle option that offers the opportunity of bringing balance back to women’s hormone levels. FibroVera is an all-natural unique blend of hormone balancing botanicals and enzymes designed to help women support health concerns stemming from hormonal irregularities. FibroVera provides fibrinolytic (fibrin eating) enzymes and cofactors that are specifically selected to promote normal fibrin activity. Healthy hormone levels will naturally promote normal fibrin activity as well as support normal premenstrual symptoms. FibroVera is intended to modulate the hormonal response, restoring inherent processes in a woman's body. Each component was carefully selected using only well researched and clinically supported ingredients. Dr. Andrew L. Rubman is a naturopathic physician and founder of the Southbury Clinic for Traditional Medicines in Connecticut. He is a member of the American Association of Naturopathic Physicians and was inducted into the association's elite Founder's Club. He is also a Fellow of the International Association for Medical Preventics and a member of the National Center for Homeopathy, the Orthomolecular Medical Society, and the National Science Honor Society. His most current project has landed him as the primary formulator of Fibrovera AHS, a unique blend of botanical components clinically documented to restore hormonal balance in woman. Hormone modulating ingredients, combined with fibrinolytic enzymes, provides women with a direct defense against uterine and breast abnormalities.

Estrogen Dominance The phenomenon of Estrogen Dominance has been widely discussed with its relationship to fibroid growth. It is a prime contributor to the deregulation of normal function experienced by not only women approaching, transitioning, and resolving the challenge of menopause, but also those young women experiencing difficulty with menarche (the beginning of fertility). This imbalance is initially characterized by a number of factors: A decrease in DHEA due to stress, aging, poor diet, side effects of prescription drugs etc. A decrease in progesterone effect due to absolute decrease in synthesis secondary to inadequate cholesterol down-conversion and increasing insensitivity of progesterone receptors. The activation of a cross-conversion pathway that forces progesterone to act as a source for the synthesis of estrogens; decreasing both its bioavailability as a hormone, and as a substrate for the formation of adrenal cortical hormones. This concept, unfortunately like most of endocrinology, is difficult for the average person as well as many physicians to fully comprehend. Why is this concept important? It demonstrates that the best way to not only address conditions such as abnormal tissue growth and inflammation, is by providing the body with natural compounds that it can use to enhance processes that it already has in place to decrease symptoms and potentially undo tissue changes. The inclusion of a DHEA supplement may indirectly increase progesterone synthesis and act to alleviate the need for available progesterone scavenged to promote a significant source for the synthesis of estrogen; relying less on progesterone as source for estrogen conversion allowing progesterone to act freely opposing estrogen. [19],[20] This process is further supported by specifically including DIM in FibroVera, to discourage the aromatization of testosterone into estrogens. I have studied the emerging literature and incorporated it into treatment regimes for over a decade and now feel comfortable enough about its metabolism and effects to include it in an OTC formula. Yes, it is a steroidal hormone precursor, however at the dosage levels supplied; it can be regarded as underwriting the proper synthesis of the estrogens and testosterone as well as the balance and effects of a myriad of neurotransmitters in the central nervous system. It is included at synergistic dose levels to help the individual not only do better, but feel better as well. The peer-reviewed research supports the safety and efficacy of DHEA and this inspires our choice and confidence Suggested Use Directions: Take 1 to 2 capsules with 8 oz of water between meals or as directed by your healthcare practitioner. Warning:Do not take FibroVera without the consent of your physician if you are taking anti-coagulants or if you are pregnant or nursing. Is FibroVera safe? No serious or adverse side effects have been reported from taking FibroVera. If you are taking blood-thinning medication, you should consult with your physician before taking FibroVera. When is the best time to take FibroVera? For best results, take the product at least one hour prior to eating and/or two hours after a meal. Can I take FibroVera with other supplements? FibroVera can be used safely with other dietary supplements. How long does it take for FibroVera to work? For therapeutic regimens, the progression may be slow for some and quicker for others. Typically, when one is addressing hormonal challenges with a product such as FibroVera, symptoms of hormonal change can occur in a matter of days. This is the first step in the process, and the most important, as hormonal imbalances left in their unbalanced state can lead to a variety of health concerns. Supplement Facts Fibrinolytic Enzyme Blend Hormonal changes can often trigger excessive fibrin fibrin production. The proprietary fibrinolytic enzyme blend in FibroVera has been added to support healthy fibrin levels. Fibrinolytic enzymes can enhance the normal process of fibrinolysis (fibrin dissolving). Serrapeptase and nattokinase are exceptional fibrinolytic enzymes. Bromelain, an enzyme derived from pineapple, has the potential to soften and digest necrotic (or dead) proteins. Papain, a protease enzyme derived from papaya, is often combined with bromelain to support healthy inflammatory levels. Coenzyme Blend Calcium and magnesium adequacy are essential to pain modulation, as well as cramping and other PMS symptoms, and have been added as active ingredients as well as coenzymes. High doses of systemic enzymes can deplete the body’s coenzyme resources. Coenzymes provide the “fuel” necessary to power the processes of enzymes. Magnesium is a very active coenzyme, and is also essential in proper absorption of calcium. Hormonal Support Blend FibroVera also contains a proprietary blend of hormone modulating compounds that work synergistically to restore hormonal equilibrium. P5P, a vitamin B6 derivative is used by the central nervous system in the synthesis of serotonin and norepinephrine. Serotonin deficiencies are related to depression, sleep disturbances, and even fatigue. GLA, or gamma-Linolenic acid, is an omega-6 fatty acid that has been shown to support a healthy inflammatory response. Diindolmethane, also known as DIM, is an extract derived from cruciferous vegetables. DIM has been shown to modulate estrogen metabolism. The inclusion of DHEA, Dehydroepiandrosterone, may indirectly increase progesterone synthesis, in turn supporting hormone balance. The female tonic Dong Quai produces a relaxing effect on the muscle of the uterus by decreasing sensitivity to inflammation, making it useful for painful menstruation and tenderness. Liver Cleansing Blend As the primary site of hormone metabolite processing, healthy liver function is essential. Milk Thistle Seed has been studied extensively for its use in supporting healthy liver function. In conjunction with Dandelion Root and Hyssop Flowers, it serves to increase the liver’s ability to bind hormonal metabolites to bile and effectively move them into the intestine for excretion.

Frequently Asked Questions Will FibroVera help me when I become menopausal? The FibroVera formula was specifically formulated to help support many of the symptomatic challenges experienced by women in hormonal transitions. It is well to consider that many of the fluctuations preceding the cessation of menses may begin a full decade before. As many know, symptom clusters may persist many months and even years after the event. We believe that women experiencing difficulty associated with menopause will note substantial improvement with the consistent use of FibroVera. Can I take FibroVera if I am trying to conceive? FibroVera does not contain any ingredients that will negatively impact conception. However, if you become pregnant while taking FibroVera, or are nursing presently, discontinue use and ask your health care provider for advice on how to proceed. We are aware of the special concerns of pregnant women and our role in insuring safety. Unless drugs, OTCs, and supplements are specifically tested for their safety and efficacy while pregnant and nursing, they should not be used unless specifically evaluated and approved by your physician. Is FibroVera right for all women? FibroVera was designed with every woman in mind. FibroVera does not directly impact hormones. FibroVera provides the key ingredients that metabolize unwanted (non-beneficial) hormone metabolites while promoting the secretion and balance of good (beneficial) ones. FibroVera's ingredients are all natural components that work to replenish missing factors from diet, restoring the inherent processes in any woman's body. Can I take FibroVera with other supplements? FibroVera may be safely taken with Neprinol and other dietary supplements. Neprinol can increase the fibrinolytic (fibrin lysing) portion of FibroVera. Syntol can replenish beneficial flora in the body, and Devacor may reduce gastrointestinal stress induced by the process of digesting foods low in natural enzymes. If I am anemic, can I safely take FibroVera? Excessive blood loss can occur during menstruation. For many forms of anemia, we recommend your healthcare provider consider a heme-iron preparation, a B12 supplement, and folic acid with additional multi-B support to address this situation. If you believe that you are or may be anemic, please consult with your health care provider. Does FibroVera contain soy? Soy food products have been a dietary staple for many cultures for centuries and have undeniable benefits. However, we felt it was best not to include these components in the formula at this time. What can I expect from FibroVera? FibroVera has been designed to work as a part of a balanced food and supplement regimen to target those symptoms associated with hormonal imbalances complicated by inflammation and fibrous tissue changes. In the short term, usually within a few weeks, women should expect to feel and function better. Within a few months, they should notice a decrease in the effects of such issues as fibrous tissue abnormalities and endometriosis. FibroVera can be safely used without significant side effects or dangerous interactions with prescription drugs. Is FibroVera safe? No serious or adverse side effects have been reported from taking FibroVera. If you are taking blood-thinning medication, you should consult with your physician before taking FibroVera.

Peptizyme-SP Enteric Coated Serrapeptase The Problem with Pain Systemic enzymes are a key to a healthy lifestyle. Processed food, exposure to environmental toxins and occasional illness cause the body to use up these enzymes, forcing it to work even harder to synthesize these enzymes and use them in the many complex reactions that take place every moment in our bodies.  Many people reach for NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) such as aspirin, ibuprofen and naproxen to address pain and inflammation.  They are effective but come with serious side effects such as gastric bleeding, joint/cartilage damage, disrupted metabolism, increased blood sugar, loss of bone and emotional disorders, among others. In July 1998, The American Journal of Medicine stated the following about NSAID-related gastrointestinal and metabolic complications: “Conservative calculations estimate that approximately 107,000 patients are hospitalized annually for non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-related gastrointestinal (GI) complications and at least 16,500 NSAID-related deaths occur each year among arthritis patients alone. The figures of all NSAID users would be overwhelming, yet the scope of this problem is generally under-appreciated.” An all-natural systemic enzyme, serrapeptase is a biocatalyst which stimulates and modulates the body’s own intrinsic capacity to recover from injury—with hardly any side effects. Peptizyme-SP for Healthy Fibrin Metabolism Peptizyme-SP®(serrapeptase) is a powerful systemic enzyme that supports the body's response to inflammation and the respiratory and sinus systems. Providing 80,000 SU (serrapeptase units) of activity per capsule, Peptizyme-SP is unrivaled among products of its kind. Serrapeptase – also known by serrapeptidase, serratiopeptidase and serratia peptidase - is a powerful proteolytic enzyme derived from a species of bacteria originally found in the intestine of silkworms. The bacterium, Serratia mercesans, produces the enzyme serrapeptase to enable the silkworm to dissolve its silken cocoon and emerge after metamorphosis. Don’t worry – no worms were harmed in the making of Peptizyme-SP. Serratia is now grown in cultures to produce serrapeptase by fermentation. Peptizyme SP supports our body's systems with the bio-energetic charge of enzymes to help them operate optimally, and address issues such as inflammation, excessive mucus in the respiratory and sinus systems and fibrin build-up. Serrapeptase has the unique ability to digest non-living tissue that is a by-product of the healing response without harming living tissue. Fibrin is a tough protein arranged in long fibrous chains.  It is formed from fibrinogen, a soluble protein produced by the liver and found in blood plasma.  Fibrin tends to form circulating complexes that create barriers against the absorption of healing nutrients in and around areas of inflammation.  Numerous research and clinical studies have demonstrated serrapeptase has anti-inflammatory, proteolytic (protein dissolving) and fibrinolytic (fibrin dissolving) properties. This unique activity of Peptizyme SP’s enteric-coated serrapeptase supports normal fibrin metabolism, blood viscosity and blood flow. Serrapeptase supports healthy inflammatory response by reducing metabolic inflammation, usually an asymptomatic inflammatory process in response to stress, improper nutrition and other environmental issues. In addition, there is evidence of inhibition of C-reactive protein, a marker of inflammation that has been linked to cardiovascular health.* How do SU’s relate to IU’s? Enzyme activity is often measured through a FCC (Food Chemicals Codex) or USP (United States Pharmacopeia) assays and is denoted by IU, or international unit. Some enzymes don’t have a standard FCC or USP assay, such as serrapeptase. However, Japanese Pharmacopeia (JP) has established an activity assay specific for serrapeptase, which measures activity in SU, or serrapeptase unit. You may see IU or SU used interchangeably on different serrapeptase products. While we do not know what sort of assays other companies use to test their enzymes, you can still compare the activity level on a one-to-one basis. So 80,000 IU is 80,000 SU, but SU is specific to serrapeptase. Unlike other supplements, the weight (mg) of an enzyme supplement carries no significance. It is not the amount but the potency, or activity, of the enzyme that really matters. Guaranteeing the ingredients are available to the body is more important than how much of the ingredient is listed on a supplement label. Peptizyme SP Dosage For best results, begin enzyme regiment at a low dosage of 1 capsule two times a day. After three days, increase your Peptizyme dosage to 2 capsules two times a day. After the first week, doses should be adjusted to a therapeutic level of 3 or more capsules two times a day (amount is dependent upon desired benefit). NOTE: It is important to continue therapeutic doses until results are realized. This should then be reduced to a maintenance dose of 1-3 capsules two times a day. Peptizyme-SP can be used along with other systemic enzyme blends such as Exclzyme or Serracor-NK to enhance fibrinolytic activity, as well as increase positive effects on inflammation and reduce mucus viscosity in the respiratory system.* Peptizyme-SP vs. Serrétia** Brand Methacrylic Acid Copolymer (MAAC) Acid Armor®**(extra-thickcellulose layer) Considered Enteric Coating? Enzyme Stabilizer BPPS® Price per bottle Serrétia(formerly Serracel) -- Yes No Unknown $99.99 for180 capsules Peptizyme-SP Yes -- Yes Yes $39.98 for120 capsules     Enteric-Coated Serrapeptase Peptizyme-SP® brand serrapeptase is enteric coated to survive the acidic conditions of the stomach without being degraded. This allows for optimum absorption in the small intestine and greater systemic activity. The pH resistant enteric coating disintegrates after it enters the alkaline environment of the intestine. Most serrapeptase brands on the market are not enteric coated, which means this low-pH sensitive enzyme can lose activity, and thus effectiveness, when entering the stomach. The enteric coating in Peptizyme SP allows the enzymes to survive the acidic conditions of the stomach, which increases absorption in the small intestine, systemic activity and efficacy.   ** Serrétia™ and Acid Armor® are registered trademarks of Arthur Andrews Medical Inc., which is not affiliated with, nor sponsors or endorses this product or any other product from Specialty Enzymes & Biotechnologies or AST Enzymes. Research Serrapeptase has been thoroughly researched for its numerous and diverse effects on inflammation, pain, infection and healing. Researchers in India conducted a study to assess the response of serrapeptase in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). They wanted to determine if a conservative, non-surgical approach would be beneficial. Twenty patients with CTS were evaluated clinically after 6 weeks taking serrapeptase. Sixty five percent showed significant clinical improvement, which was supported by improvement in electrophysiological parameters. No significant side effects were observed. The doctors concluded that serrapeptase therapy may prove to be a useful alternative conservative treatment.1 A clinical evaluation of serrapeptase was conducted to determine its efficacy in reducing inflammation in patients with breast engorgement. Serrapeptase was noted to be superior to placebo for improvement of breast pain, breast swelling and induration and while 85.7% of the patients receiving serrapeptase had "Moderate to Marked" improvement. No adverse reactions were reported with the use of serrapeptase. The researchers conclude that serrapeptase is a safe and effective method for the treatment of breast engorgement.2 A prospective study was conducted on the effect of serrapeptase on post-operative swelling and pain of the ankle. In the serrapeptase group, the swelling decreased by 50% on the third post-operative day, while in the control groups (no treatment and treatment with ice) no reduction in swelling occurred. A decrease in pain correlated for the most part with the reduction in swelling. On the basis of these results, serrapeptase would appear to be an effective preparation for the post-operative reduction of swelling, in comparison with the classical conservative measures, for example, the application of ice.3 The efficacy of serrapeptase was evaluated in a multicenter, double-blind, placebo-controlled study of 193 subjects suffering from acute or chronic ear, nose or throat disorders. After 3-4 days' treatment, significant symptom regression was observed in serrapeptase treated patients. Statistical comparison confirmed the greater efficacy of serrapeptase against all the symptoms examined. It was concluded that serrapeptase has anti-inflammatory, anti-edemic and fibrinolytic activity and acts rapidly on localized inflammation.4 Serrapeptase is widely used in clinical practice in Japan. One research trial in Japan investigated the effect of serrapeptase on sputum properties and symptoms in patients with chronic airway diseases. After 4 weeks of serrapeptase treatment, sputum output, viscosity and sputum neutrophil count decreased significantly. In addition, the frequency of coughing and of expectoration also decreased. The researchers concluded serrapeptase may exert a beneficial effect on mucus clearance by reducing neutrophil numbers and altering the viscoelasticity of sputum in patients with chronic airway diseases.5 An unusual clinical trial evaluated the effectiveness of serratiopeptidase in the eradication of a periprosthetic infection (an infection at the site of an implanted orthopedic device) in an in vivo animal model. Infections of slime-forming bacteria are especially difficult at these sites. Rats were inoculated with Staphylococcus epidermidis at the prosthetic site. After two weeks, infection persisted in 63.2% of animals in the no-treatment group; 37.5% of animals in an antibiotic-only group; and only 5.6% of animals in the serratiopeptidase-and-antibiotic group. The authors conclude that serratiopeptidase was effective at eradicating infection in this experimental animal model and may enhance antibiotic efficacy in the treatment of staphylococcal infections.6   References1.   Panagariya A, Sharma AK.

Systemic enzymes are absorbed from the small intestine where they enter the bloodstream and execute their effects on the entire body as a system. Their crucial role in normal inflammatory response assists and supports the body in accelerating healing.   What is a systemic proteolytic enzyme? Proteolytic enzymes break down proteins into their building-blocks, which are called amino acids. Systemic proteolytic enzymes are responsible for breaking down accumulated protein and waste substances found in the circulatory system and connective tissue. Waste materials produced from inflammation and other biochemical processes can build up, contributing to excessive scarring and perpetuated immune responses. Excessive scarring, particularly of the organs, can exacerbate symptoms of the associated disease. The waste product of specific concern is known as fibrin. Regular systemic proteolytic enzyme use can improve circulation and aid in flushing out these waste products.    What is fibrin? Fibrin is a protein-based substance that is needed to help clot one’s blood, playing a substantial role in immune response and healing. When the body responds to injury or chronic inflammation, fibrin is recruited to the damaged area to form scar tissue. Although the body is equipped with plasmin, a naturally occurring enzyme responsible for breaking down excess fibrin, some people are at a disadvantage – as aging occurs, plasmin levels progressively decrease. This actually increases the risk for excessive, undesirable scar tissue formation in the body.   Are systemic enzymes anti-inflammatory drugs? Although systemic enzymes produce anti-inflammatory effects, they are not considered a drug. Since enzymes are naturally occurring within the body, systemic enzyme therapy is considered supplementation. One difference between systemic enzymes and NSAIDs (Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs) involves the duration of action. While NSAIDs produce short-term pain relief, systemic enzymes can produce long-term alleviation with appropriate use. The largest difference between NSAIDS and systemic enzymes is the mechanism of action and possible side effects. NSAIDs block the production of prostaglandins, which are responsible for inflammation and swelling. However, prostaglandins protect the lining of the stomach, and prolonged use of NSAIDs can reduce this protection and increase the risk of developing ulcers. Conversely, regular use of systemic enzymes has no negative side effects and can actually provide protective effects against excess inflammation.   Why is it important to take Peptizyme-SP on an empty stomach? Since most absorption occurs in the small intestine, the systemic enzymes must bypass the stomach to gain access there. If the enzymes are taken with food, they will likely begin working to break down your food within the stomach, rather than passing through to the small intestine. Taking systemic enzymes like Peptizyme-SP with food will compromise their absorption, as well as their effectiveness.   Does Peptizyme-SP have an enteric coating? Yes, the serrapeptase in Peptizyme-SP is enterically coated. While similar systemic enzymes may have the same active ingredients, most do not utilize enteric coating. The purpose of enteric coating is to protect the enzyme from the acidic environment of the stomach. High activity level is preserved until the enzymes reach the small intestine, where absorption into the bloodstream takes place. While the enteric coating can withstand the acidic environment of the stomach, the alkaline environment of the small intestine will disintegrate the enteric coating, allowing the enzyme to be active within the bloodstream.   Do you use phthalates in your enteric coating? No, our enteric coating does not use or contain phthalates. At AST Enzymes, we use Methacrylic Acid Copolymer (MAAC) for our enteric coating. Compared to other commonly used enteric coating agents such as Cellulose Acetate Phthalate (CAP) and Hydroxypropyl Methycellulose Phthalate (HPMCP), MAAC is the most gastro-resistant and does not carry the same risks. Additionally, MAAC is considered GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe) by the FDA and is approved for use by the European Food Safety Authority. To learn more about enteric coating used in AST Enzymes products, please see our “Compare” tab.   How long should I take Peptizyme-SP before feeling results? Since people experience varying ailments and severity of disease, the length of time to include systemic enzymes in your regimen may vary as well. As an overall guideline, it is typically recommended that new systemic enzyme users start off slow. A starter dose is generally one capsule, three times daily. After one week of proven tolerance, the dose can be increased to a therapeutic dose of 2 capsules, 3 times per day. At this point, results may be monitored, and dosage should be adjusted accordingly. Some consumers find their therapeutic dose between 6 to 9 capsules per day, while others only need 2 to 3. There are several factors that may affect results and required dosage, including: Height Weight Age Severity of symptoms Tolerance Time of administration (Better absorbed on an empty stomach) Adherence to regimen Nutritional state   What if I miss a dose? Regular, consistent use of systemic enzymes will provide the best results, however missed doses of systemic enzymes do not have serious repercussions. Although symptoms alleviated by systemic enzyme therapy may resurface, getting back on track by remembering to take your next dose will suffice. There is also the option of incorporating another dose during the day. There is no need to “double up,” on one dose - and remember, systemic enzymes are best absorbed on an empty stomach.   Are there any side effects involved with Peptizyme-SP? The use of Peptizyme has not been shown to exhibit detrimental effects, neither long term nor short term. Just as dosage requirements vary, side effects may vary as well. Although gastrointestinal disturbances have been reported by a small percentage of new users, tolerance is maintained once the dosage is adjusted. Minor allergic reactions, like reddening of the skin, are also rare occurrences, and can be seen with extremely high doses. There are no known interactions with prescription or over the counter drugs while using systemic enzyme therapy. However, it is recommended that you consult with your physician about starting systemic enzymes, especially if you are currently on blood-thinning medications or if you are pregnant or nursing.   Can I take Peptizyme-SP with other systemic enzymes? Systemic enzymes may be taken together, yielding desirable results, as long as they are taken on an empty stomach. In fact, it is often recommended that systemic enzymes be combined. Products Peptizyme-SP and Serracor-NK often have synergistic effects when taken together. This means that the separate products work together to produce advantageous results. By combining and enhancing the activity of the enzymes, their effects on the healing process are more attainable.   Can I take Peptizyme-SP with digestive enzymes? Although digestive and systemic enzymes are not contraindicated in terms of ingredients, they cannot be taken at the same time. The purpose of digestive enzymes is to aid in digestion of specific foods, so taking them with food is an obvious recommendation. Because systemic enzymes require an empty stomach for maximum absorption, they must be taken separately from digestive enzymes. There are no adverse interactions between systemic and digestive enzymes, but they serve different purposes and thus should be taken as directed for best results.   Peptizyme-SP  – Enteric Coated Serrapeptase ~ 80,000 SU’s of Activity Per Capsule ~ Peptizyme-SP® is a potent and purified strain of Serrapeptase, also called Serratiopeptidase.  Supplement Facts Serving Size: 1 CapsuleServings Per Container: 60 Amount Per Serving:                           % DV Peptizyme-SP®                         500 mg *Enteric Coated Serrapeptase     80,000 SU’s *Daily Value (DV) not established Other ingredients:  Microcrystalline cellulose and cellulose (vegetarian capsule) Directions: Take 1 to 2 capsules twice a day on an empty stomach.
