We cleaned and dried laundry and kids’ health immediately bounced back.

Disease causing mold will also grow on sweaty shoes placed in a tight closet.

It will also grow:

* On wet towels on bathroom floor * Sweating A/C duct work * And in wet basements

One sick stinky house we looked at had a pond in crawlspace. It seems that developer had one empty lot in subdivision with a spring in middle. He didn’t want to loose money on an unsold lot. So he built a house over spring.

Zoning regulations wouldn’t allow homeowner to drain water into street. Any other draining would put water in their downhill neighbors yard. That could get them sued.

If you have a moist house, stink will get into your clothes. You will carry stink on dates, to church and to work. If you go into another moist building, you could actually contaminate that building, too.

SOLUTIONS:

1> Mask smell. Many people fill air with a flowery smell to cover up stink. Its job is to be more powerful than unpleasant smell. Is this a solution? If all you worry about is smell, yes. Is part of smell that causes disease still there? Of course.

2> Take away ability of nose to smell. Most of those little devices that eliminate smells actually numb nose so we can’t smell anything. They use chemicals caused neurotoxins. These neurotoxins damage nerves of smell if we use them long enough. By way, smell is still there.

3> Remove cause of smell a> Don’t leave wet towels laying around b> Periodically open cabinet doors under sink so there is no moisture buildup. c> Dry out crawlspace and attic d> Use smell removers like Tea Tree Oil, and grapefruit seed extract. These are in cleaners and disinfectants found at most health food stores. These get rid of smell by killing smell makers. And they are totally safe.

So if your home stinks, you have several options. Hide it, ignore it, destroy your nose or eliminate problem

Specialized need – If you take a complete product while attempting to get benefits of just one or two types of enzymes, you may have to take much more product which makes this much more expensive. Targeting specific needs may be more efficient and cheaper. Calculate cost per capsule and per dose for what you need. There is also basic issue of volume or bulk in enzymes. There is only so much room in a capsule so all-in-one product may require you to take more capsules just to get adequate amounts of basic types of enzymes. A person with celiac may want a product that is low in proteases overall. You may want particular enzymes just for yeast control. If you are on a diet that contains high fat, you would probably be better off with a special product with a much higher level of lipase enzymes than most products contain (Lypo from Enzymedica is an example). Some people cannot tolerate fruit-derived enzymes, whereas others specifically want bromelain or papain to help with inflammation. A few have reported taking a a strong protease product to quelch a migraine or cold. Wobenzyme N is all proteases and very popular for immune system support.

Proteases separately – Giving proteases separately has proven to be very beneficial for many people. Since proteases are doing many other types of healing work in body, this provides advantages and disadvantages. The advantages include fighting pathogens, eliminating waste and toxins, immune support, etc. We have noticed that sometimes if there is a negative initial reaction to enzymes, this can be minimized by giving proteases separately and going slower with them, where as this does not seem to be a factor with other enzymes. Many parents have found that being able to dose a strong protease product separately from other enzymes has made enzyme therapy successful for them. They can use a broad spectrum product lower in proteases first for a couple of weeks to promote gut healing gently and then introduce stronger proteases. For those with yeast, die-off may be slower and more tolerable. Someone with a severely injured gut can give proteases slower until gut is sufficiently healed without having to give up benefits of other enzymes. This strategy may actually speed up gut healing as well.

Number of enzymes – You will notice that many very good enzyme products do not have every enzyme known to man in them. Having one of everything is not really necessary with enzymes. It may be helpful for some people depending on their physiology and diet, but many people just need ample supplies of basic ones. Too many different types of proteases may start to cancel each other out. Also, certain combinations of enzymes have synergistic benefits that are not seen if given separately or not in appropriate combination. This is ‘art’ and science of making targeted products.

Part 3. Look closely at amount of activity of enzymes

Your best bet for an all-around digestive enzyme product is Bio88+ (Plus), with highest rate of CFU’s available at time of manufacture of any competing product.

Enzyme strength is measured in terms of activity. Enzymes may be present, but unless they are functional, they will not do any good. While most food, supplement, and drug comparisons use weight (such as milligrams), most important measurement with enzymes is activity and potency of enzyme. A product label should list enzyme strength in standard activity units rather than by weight. To measure activity of digestive enzymes, tests or assays determine quantity of digestion that occurs under specific conditions. This activity depends on concentration, quantity, pH, temperature, and substrate.

When you review labeling on a digestive enzyme package, look for Food Chemical Codex (FCC) units. This labeling certifies that enzymes went through thorough testing for activity and potency. The American food industry accepts these units as set forth by National Academy of Sciences. Some companies promoting enzymes list measurements based on dosage, weights such as milligrams (mg), or a other things. Weight, dosage, and any other units do not give any information on enzyme activity – 220 mg per capsule does not tell anything about enzyme activity. You may have 220 mg of nothing, or 10 percent activity or 90 percent activity. FCC labeling is only national standard for evaluation of activity and potency of enzymes in United States. If product you are interested in only gives weight in milligrams or in units you do not understand, you can call company and ask about specific ingredients and activities.

The higher activity number, quicker food is digested. A lower number will still be digesting food, but it will take longer. Since enzymes do not get used up in process, we do not ‘run out’ of enzymes before all food is digested, BUT stomach and intestines are absorbing food, completely broken down or not, at same time. Since we are ‘on clock,’ with possible unbroken-down peptides (or other food components) being absorbed, we want food to be digested by enzymes before it gets absorbed in a partially broken-down state.

FCC labeling example: If Product # 1 has 15,000 HUT of protease and Product # 2 has 45,000 HUT of protease. Product #2 can break down three times more protein than product # 1 in a given period of time. This is how to compare digestive enzyme activity and formulations.
