    Conditions that can often be helped by the use of digestive enzymes


    7. Hypothyroidism and Enzyme Therapy - Top

    Enzyme therapy is very effective in strengthening the immune system. When your body does not have enough digestive enzymes to properly digest the food you eat, many bad thing begin to happen — your system becomes toxic, which overloads the immune system, resulting in a general weakening of all of your essential body systems. The end result is often disease, of some type. A regular enzyme regimen will begin to help alleviate the digestive failure, and start to also begin eliminating the toxic waste residing in your body, particularly the lower intestine and colon. A program such as the E-Club Nutrition System has proven to be very effective in systemically restoring and then preserving good health, resulting in many cases, with less chronic and degenerative disease situations and helping to create an environment that promotes longevity. Enzyme therapy works. Generally, it takes 60-90 days to reverse the years of digestive neglect most people's body has suffered. You might want to consider this.

    Notwithstanding the importance of immune system enhancement, hypothyroidism, this is not something digestive enzyme therapy generally addresses. With hypothyroidism, the thyroid is not making enough of the thyroid hormone needed by your system.

    There are two types of hypothyroidism "acquired hypothyroidism" and "congenital hypothyroidism".

    There is a connection to "enzymes" here, which often results in questions of how enzyme therapy can modulate hypothyroidism. In the case of the congenital form, this is often the result of an enzyme defect in the creation of iodine. This, however, is not the same kind of enzyme as the digestive enzymes we use for digestive disorders and immune system enhancement.


    We can refer you to some excellent web sites which deals specifically with hypothyroidism.

    Given the nature of any thyroid deficiency, however, strengthening the immune system in general is certainly something you will want to give some attention to.
