Bronchitis
What is it?
Chronic bronchitis is defined by excessive mucus production with airway obstruction
and notable hyperplasia of mucus-producing glands. Damage to the endothelium
impairs the mucociliary response that clears bacteria and mucus. Inflammation
and secretions provide the obstructive component of chronic bronchitis. Bronchitis
can occur during the winter months or in more chronic cases, all the year
round.
What causes it?
The main cause is chronic inflammation due to a number of possible factors
including: overeating of starchy foods, dairy foods, smoking, and breathing
polluted air. A deficiency of enzymes and vegetables are a major factor. Infections
are more likely in these circumstances
How can Serrapeptase Help?
Serrapeptase helps immensely as it clears out all of the inflammation, mucus
and dead/scar tissue. By clearing away this problem tissue it enables the
bodies own healing system to replace it with healthy tissue and better lung
function as a result.

How many do I take?
Start with 3 Tablets of Serrapeptase x 3 times per day on an empty stomach and
increase it to 4 x 3 if no relief with 7 days. Then gradually reduce to 1
x 1.
Can I take too many tablets or can it interfere with any drugs I am taking?
No. It has been used for over 25 years with no side effects reported.
Research
Findings
In a study
of chronic bronchitis, conducted by a team of researchers, the
Serrapeptase-treated group showed excellent results compared with the placebo
group in the improvement of loosening sputum, frequency of cough and
expectoration. Braga, P.C. et al. Effects of Serrapeptase on muco-ciliary
clearance in patients with chronic bronchitis. Curr. Ther. Res. 29(5):
