Just wanted to add in my recent experience. The day I read a post on the CS list about Serrapeptase is the day I ran out to the health food store and bought a bottle. I've been taking 40,000 IU twice a day now for almost two weeks.
My personal priority has been my blood pressure. A number of years ago my doctor put me on 25 mg (a modest dose) of Toprol XL, a beta blocker. It did a good job of bringing my blood pressure down from approx. 150/95 down to 120/70..... Time has marched on and I continue to take the stuff as it appears to be a lifelong habit once started. In the last six months I have been paying closer attention to my bp, discovering that it has gradually continued to worsen and was around 160/95 approx. occasionally going 'much higher.' I was worried about it but hadn't yet gone to my doc for an increase to my prescription. This was my frame of mind when I started taking this supplement. It's been about two weeks now, and in the last few days I have seen numbers regularly in the 140's/ 80's. This morning I came in at 136/80. I know this is unreliable anectdotal evidence, but it's pretty compelling to me. I think the Serrapeptase is doing its job for me! I am indebted to the silver list. Without this tip I know what direction I would have been headed. I think I'm now on the right path. Yesterday, my mail order arrived, with a bottle of 90 capsules of 120,000 iu each. I won't be taking more than one of THESE capsules a day. Steve
