Sinusitis

Sinus problems usually begin with some degree of sinus congestion caused by a cold (or other virus), or an allergic reaction; or a sinus infection that is usually caused by an underlying bacterial infection. A chronic congested sinuses problem in general is usually the result of a sinusitis infection. Sinusitis is the inflammation of the sinuses accompanied by pain, headache and, at times, mucous drainage. While it is often considered a bacterial disease and may respond frequently to antibiotics, clinical experience has proven that allergies, food and environment may be underlying causes.  Improving your health and immunity by taking digestive enzymes with foods as well as on an empty stomach has been helpful for many people in eliminating recurring infections through improved health and digestion.

PBF Ultimate Enzymes are a complete digestive enzyme formula contains Bromelain. This is important because Bromelain has demonstrated anti-inflammatory properties that will reduce internal inflammations. These inflammations can be inflamed joints, inflamed sinus passages, or inflamed organs such as the prostate. However, in order for Bromelain to demonstrate its anti-inflammatory action, it must be taken on an empty stomach. The reason is simple. If there is food in your stomach, then Bromelain, along with the other digestive enzymes, will be used up to digest your food. If taken without food, then the entire digestive enzymes formula will find it way into the blood stream.  By taking digestive enzymes between meals one aids in cleaning up the bloodstream and provides anti-inflammatory results.

The anti-inflammatory effect of Bromelain is the probable reason this enzyme has been found effective for people suffering from sinusitis. Some of the evidence supporting Bromelain in the treatment of sinusitis comes from double-blind research.  One such study showed that 69% of those receiving Bromelain as a sinusitis treatment experienced favorable results.

Raw food has intact enzymes that assist in the digestion of that food group. Cooking destroys enzymes. Our bodies also have enzymes that assist in digesting foods, however enzyme function diminishes with age. Failure to completely digest foods leads to incomplete assimilation of nutrients. The result is the development of a number of chronic medical conditions, food allergies and sinus infections and inflammations included.  Ultimate Enzymes are made from premium plant sources. Plant based digestive enzymes work at any pH; meaning once they are in your stomach, it starts working right away. Animal based digestive enzymes do not begin to work until after your stomach pH drops very low; thus any person with hypochlorhydria (a lack of hydrochloric acid in the gastric juices), may never benefit from animal based digestive enzymes. Enzymes taken with meals will be used up in the stomach while they help digest that meal. Enzymes taken on an empty stomach will go into the blood stream intact. Blood conditions such as stacking of red blood cells (RBCs) like a stack of coins (RBC Rouleau), or red blood cells clumping together (RBC Aggregation), or accumulations of Uric Acid Crystals in the blood, can be greatly helped with Plant Digestive Enzymes taken on an empty stomach.
