 | Wobenzym N | | Wobenzym N | Treatment, Benefits & Side Effects
Wobenzym is an enzymatic therapy designed in Germany in the 1960s. It has multiple health benefits and works as a natural anti-inflammatory. Wobenzym has been found to effectively help reduce inflammation and pain associated with osteoarthritis and other inflammatory conditions. It can also work as a natural and safe alternative to more traditional medications such as ibuprofen. In addition to its anti-inflammatory uses for osteoarthritis, Wobenzym has been found to lower C reactive protein levels by a significant 30%. C reactive protein levels are the marker for chronic infection in the body. Thus, Wobenzym displays promise in helping to decrease instances of infection that causes pain.
The bioflavonoids in Wobenzym help to diminish the discoloration and local pain associated with traumatic injuries. Many leading surgeons regularly administer Wobenzym to patients when they undergo surgical procedures to encourage faster, more efficient healing. It helps to prevent edema and post-surgical bruising. Some Olympic athletes are also using Wobenzym to help reduce the occurrence of injury by as much as 50% and to promote recovery from injuries incurred. Wobenzym promotes overall health and wellness and the list of its health benefits continues to grow. Wobenzym has been found to help decrease inflammation that causes allergies and can alleviate symptoms for the sufferer. It can help to provide protection for the body from environmental toxins found in water, food, and air. Wobenzym has shown to help reduce the instance of blood clots generated by the sudden dispersal of vulnerable plaque. Wobenzym works to lower cholesterol while preventing strokes and heart attacks due to its anti-thrombotic, anti-spasmodic, anti-arrhythmic effect. The antioxidants in Wobenzym promote feelings of well-being and can help to reduce the signs and effects of aging. As previously noted, Wobenzym has powerful anti-inflammatory properties and can help to treat autoimmune disorders and rheumatic illnesses such as osteo and rheumatic arthritis. It can help to reduce inflammation and muscle pain. Wobenzym is a powerful and beneficial enzyme treatment option that optimizes health and can effectively be applied to a variety of physical problems.
Importance of Enzymes
What exactly is enzyme therapy? And for that matter, what are enzymes and how do they impact health? Enzymes are proteins that make life possible. Every chemical reaction that occurs in the human body requires enzymes to ensure maximum efficacy. No vitamin, mineral, or hormone can do its job in the human body without the catalyst effect of enzymes. Enzymes help the body digest fats, carbohydrates, proteins, and fiber; enabling the body to glean nutrients while removing toxins. Enzymes convert the food we eat into energy and fuel our bodies to promote stronger immune systems and healthier blood flow. Amino acids, which are the basic building blocks of life, comprise the proteins that are enzymes. While all enzymes are proteins, all proteins are not necessarily enzymes. Enzymes are organized into chains that fold into three-dimensional structures in a sporadic manner. These structures affirm the specific function of the enzyme. Nearly every metabolic and physiological evolution in the body requires enzymes. Consequently, it is important to recognize that enzymes are one of the key players in maintaining a healthy body. Enzymes work to enhance a strong, healthy immune system; promote cardiovascular wellness; support quality central nervous system function; and help to properly balance hormone levels in the body. Enzymes fuel the body’s chemical activities by working as catalysts, causing the body’s processes to work at a faster rate. Enzymes are an integral part of healthy cell activity and are necessary for organs, tissues, and glands to perform properly. Without enzymes, cells would not perform their tasks as quickly or efficiently and the body’s physiological processes would either not progress at all or would move at an extremely slow rate. The human body produces its own supply of enzymes as needed. However, there are a myriad of situations in which the body exhausts its enzyme supply and cannot adequately replenish its supply. The consumption of junk food rather than healthy, whole foods can diminish the body’s ability to produce sufficient enzyme levels. Certain medications can also inhibit healthy enzyme production. As the body ages it loses the ability to keep up with the demands of metabolic attrition and struggles to maintain satisfactory enzyme levels. This insufficiency of vital enzymes has been found to be a key component to chronic, age-related illnesses. Enzymes are a critical factor to the body’s overall health and its ability to operate effectively and efficiently.
How Does Wobenzym N Work
As mentioned earlier, the enzymes in Wobenzym work to support healthy function of the entire human body. Every chemical reaction and digestive process relies on a healthy supply of enzymes. Specifically, Wobenzym works so effectively to promote health because it contains proteolytic enzymes, which cling to other proteins and can break them down when necessary. The proteolytic enzymes found in Wobenzym help the body maintain homeostasis when healthy, but also helps to fight damaging proteins when diseased. There are multiple clinical trials that have indicated Wobenzym’s ability to minify harmful immune complexes that can lead to autoimmune disorders. In conjunction, immune complexes can precipitate a multitude of diseases because they have been identified for their role in thickening blood. Even though Drs. Wolf, Benitez, and Ransberger did not find the unequivocal cure for cancer at this point, the proteolytic enzymes in Wobenzym have been found to be very effective in helping to treat some cancers. The sister product, Wobe-Mugos, to Wobenzym by MUCOS is under consideration by the FDA for Orphan Drug status as a contributory treatment for patients with the cancer involving B cells in the blood called multiple myeloma. There is also research being performed to show that proteolytic enzymes found in Wobenzym can aid in the management of pancreatic cancer. Research is continuously being performed concerning proteolytic enzymes and Wobenzym as therapy options for certain cancers.
Wobenzym Research
Research is continuously being completed concerning the health benefits of Wobenzym. One study was performed to evaluate the effect of Wobenzym enzymes on the atherogenic potential and inflammatory factors at the rehabilitation stage for patients who had a myocardial infarct. The effects of Wobenzym on the atherogenicity of blood serum were evaluated as well as the immuno-inflammatory reaction of patients with myocardial infarction. The study was performed during the rehabilitation stage over a six month period of time. The basis therapy for the patients supplemented with Wobenzym showed facilitation of the normalization of the atherogenic potential. It also had a positive effect on the mediators of the inflammatory process.

Another study was performed to determine the efficacy of Wobenzym in the comprehensive treatment of patients with a digital flexor tendon injury. The study evaluated 56 patients with digital flexor tendon injuries. The study isolated 28 of the patients and treated them with Wobenzym along with their other complex treatment as well as early active mobilization. Considerable anti-inflammatory and anti-oedematous effects were noted. A secondary analgesic effect was also noted and patients taking Wobenzym were able to regain active movements earlier.
(Klin Khir. 2000;(4):39-40.)
As Wobenzym continues to be assessed for its many health benefits, the research shows even more uses for Wobenzym in helping treat diseases and conditions. A study performed in 1999 looked at the effect of the Wobenzym preparation on the antioxidant protection indices and on the functional-morphological properties of the erythrocytes in a toxic lesion of the liver. The study examined 60 patients with toxic afflictions of the liver. The anti-radical defence decompensation mechanisms were established together with changes in morphofunctional properties of red cells in toxic hepatitis in patients with pulmonary tuberculosis. It was considered expedient to include the polyenzymic preparation, Wobenzym, into the therapeutic complex since it had been shown to make for normalization of the red cells’ ability to undergo deformation, lowering the degree of viscosity of RBC suspension in the patients.

A study was completed investigating Wobenzym and diuretic therapy in lymphedema after breast operation. The authors of this clinical study report the results of a controlled clinical trial in randomized parallel groups (Wobenzym vs. diuretics) of 55 female patients suffering from brachial arm lymph edema subsequent to ablatio mammae. All patients received manual and machine lymph drainage as well as gymnastics as concomitant therapy. After 7 weeks of therapy the results of the volometric assessments of the arm, the circumference of the arm and the skinfold thickness showed significant improvements compared to diuretics. In addition, the patients receiving Wobenzym reported a significantly higher proportion of patients free of pain compared to the diuretics patients. Overall safety assessment results are satisfactory thus resulting in a superior benefit/risk relation of the Wobenzym group.
(Wien Med Wochenschr. 1996;146(4):67-72; discussion 74.)
This next study looks at the effects of Wobenzym on the blood proteinase-inhibitory system in elderly and senile patients with gastric and duodenal peptic ulcers. The study was made in 31 patient with gastric and duodenal peptic ulcer aged from 60 to 82 years. It has been ascertained that exacerbation of the condition is accompanied by decline in the lysis of azoalbumin (low-molecular proteins), by a decrease in the blood serum concentration of alpha 2-macroglobulin in the presence of an increased lysis of azocol (colagenolytic activity of the blood) and the blood serum content of aldehyde- and ketone derivatives. Administration of Wobenzym and erbisol against the background of a differentiated basic therapy makes for improvement of the condition of the blood proteinase-inhibitory system, with the protein oxidative modification processes being on the decrease.
(Lik Sprava. 2001 May-Jun;(3):130-5.)
One other study shows Intestinal resorption with 3H labeled enzyme mixture (wobenzyme). 0.2 g of an enzyme mixture, Wobenzym, labelled with 3H-acetic anhydride, were given orally to guinea pigs, which were arranged in 4 groups of 5 animals. The animals of each group were sacrificed at intervals of 30 minutes, 2, 4 and 24 hours after application. Radioactivity of the small and large intestine, plasma, urine, liver, heart, kidney, and skeletal muscle were determined. It could be shown that the labelled mixture of enzymes was absorbed from the intestine and was demonstrable in significant amounts in plasma, urine, heart, kidney, liver and skeletal muscle.
