Provita Serra-Plus Forte Serrapeptase

Product Description

Serrapeptase – also known as 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 as a moth after metamorphosis. Serratia is now grown in cultures to produce serrapeptase by fermentation, and is suitable for vegetarians. 

As a concentrated natural proteolytic enzyme supplement, some of the areas serrapeptase support are healthy respiratory and sinus function, as well as muscle joint and overall tissue health. It may even be used to break down old injuries, scar tissue from surgeries, heart attacks, strokes, etc…

The ingredients in Serra-Plus Forte have a synergistic action, including a proteolytic effect (breaking down proteins) attributed to the enzyme activity of serrapeptase, bromelain and papain, botanical support from curcumin, boswellia and ginger to address pain and inflammation, and piperine for enhanced absorption. This formula also comes in delayed-release capsules, designed to resist stomach acid so the enzymes are less likely to be broken down before reaching the intestine.

Medicinal ingredients per capsule:

• Serrapeptase enzyme – 50 mg, providing 120 000 SU (Serratiopeptidase Units)
• Papain (Carica papaya leaf) -150 mg, providing 300,000 FCC PU
• Bromelain from pineapple stem – 100 mg providing 3,000,000 FCC PU
• Curcumin from turmeric root – 100 mg, standardized to 95% curcuminoids and at least 50% tetrahydrocurcuminoids
• Boswellia serrata extract – 100 mg, standardized to 65% boswellic acids
• Ginger 10:1 extract – 50 mg
• Piperine from black pepper fruit – 5 mg

Non-medicinal ingredients: microcrystalline cellulose and ascorbyl palmitate. The delayed-release vegetarian capsule is made from hypromellose and gellan gum.

Recommended dosage: Adults take one capsule daily, on an empty stomach, approximately two hours after a meal. (Taking it away from food ensures the enzymes don’t simply digest your food, but are actually used as intended: systemically.)
