Serrapeptase - A key ingredient in Vitalzym Xe, was originally discovered in Japan and is commercially produced there for health applications. It has been used as a substitute for animal-derived enzymes, such as chymotrypsin, due to its stronger effect in terms of bradykinin-decomposing activity (a measurement of the enzyme activity level needed to degrade bradykinin, a protein found in the body that causes an inflammatory response).*

Protease - Any enzyme that catalyzes the splitting of proteins into smaller peptide fractions and amino acids by a process known as proteolysis.

Bromelain - An enzyme found in pineapples that breaks down other proteins, such as collagen and has anti-inflammatory properties.

Papain - A proteolytic enzyme obtained from unripe papaya.

Lipase - Lipase digests fat. It is an enzyme secreted in the digestive tract that catalyzes the breakdown of fats into individual fatty acids that can be absorbed into the bloodstream.

Amylase - Any of a group of proteins found in saliva and pancreatic

juice and parts of plants, Amylase digests carbohydrates and helps convert starch to sugar.

Amla - The world’s richest source of Vitamin C. It also contains tannic acid, glucose, protein, cellulose and calcium. Amla is considered to have restorative and preventive

properties.

Rutin - One of the many existing flavonoids. Flavonoids support health by strengthening capillaries and other connective tissue, and some function as anti-inflammatory, anti-histaminic, and antiviral agents.

Made in Japan

Quality control requirements of a licensed manufacturing facility in Japan are considered the most hygienic of any industry. Extreme measures are taken to avoid any possibility of contamination. Precautions include clean rooms, dust particle control, and sophisticated air filtration systems. During frequent site facility inspections, the government inspects all laboratory equipment and safety measures. Each inspection must be passed in order to retain the export licensure.

World Nutrition is also required to notify the Japanese Pharmaceutical and Food Safety Bureau of any variance to the registered ingredient blend. Any blend change would require a new registration for export. Every batch of product must be inspected before and after mixing to test adherence to the registered blend. In addition, every lot of raw materials received by our manufacturing facility must be tested independently of the supplier for safety, impurities, potency, and accuracy. These records must be disclosed upon facility inspections.

These Japanese manufacturing guidelines unique to the manufacturing of Vitalzym ensure that each and every capsule is of the utmost purity, potency and safety.*

Dosage

This dosage recommendation is for most users. The dosage recommended by your healthcare professional may differ. As a dietary supplement, take 3 capsules daily with water. Your healthcare professional may also recommend a higher activation dosage.

Warning: If you are currently taking prescription drugs, consult your healthcare professional prior to use.

Detoxification

Systemic enzymes may help rid the body of toxins. Some users will experience a detoxification reaction to the enzymes, including short-term fatigue, nausea, fogginess, or headache. Though uncomfortable, this detoxification is beneficial to the body. Increased water intake can assist in the process, or reduced enzyme dosage will slow the rate of detoxification. If symptoms persist, contact your healthcare professional.*

For all conditions or illnesses, see a healthcare professional for a full evaluation, diagnosis, or treatment plan.
