THE END OF Heart Disease and Arthritis
Discovery Health Channel host and chartered biologist Dr. Laz Bannock discovers Neprinol completely eliminates
arthritis in just six months without the use of damaging drugs and pain relievers.
Dr. Bannock, D.Sc., has just completed a multipatient study at the Santa Fe Center for Nutritional Medicine in Santa Fe, New Mexico, to examine the ability of Neprinol, a systemic enzyme formula, to help the body maintain healthy fibrin activity and inflammation levels. Healthy Living obtained extremely detailed clinical reports from Dr. Bannock that provide evidence of Neprinol’s ability to help aging patients maintain healthy fibrin and inflammation processes in the
body. This is critical since fibrosis, which is the excess sclerotic production of fibrin, causes high inflammation, a
significant cause of premature aging and a clear-cut dangerous health signal. His study results, thus far, deal particularly with patients who complained primarily of osteoarthritis symptoms, which we now know to be an inflammatory condition, as well as the even more inflammatory rheumatoid arthritis and health challenges involving cholesterol and insulin response.
ENZYME DEFICIENCY PERVASIVE
When it comes to fighting premature aging, many people are watching their diet, exercising, reducing exposure to pollution, taking vitamins, expanding their spiritual life, and even practicing meditation and relaxation techniques, praying or maintaining a strong religious affiliation.
But if they have not begun a supplement program with systemic oral enzymes, they’re just not doing enough, say health experts like Bannock.
Today, we have grounds for assuming that there are thousands of catalytic processes taking place between tissues and fluids in living plants and animals. These processes can occur only as a result of enzymatic reactions, he adds.
European health experts call enzymes the “fountain of youth” because life cannot occur without them. But only recently has the medical scientific community begun to truly realize the importance of supplementing daily with systemic oral
enzymes. (Systemic oral enzymes should not be confused with digestive enzymes. Systemic oral enzymes are resorbed via the digestive tract into the bloodstream where they act
systemically.)
Unfortunately, the body’s enzyme activity declines markedly as we age; yet, we need optimal enzyme activity throughout our lives. Ancient men and women received enzymes from their diet via vegetables, fruits and other raw foods, nature’s richest sources of enzymes.
Unfortunately, however, even moderate temperatures at which most foods are cooked destroy enzymes. Although enzymes are found most active in raw or lightly cooked foods, most people won’t eat raw foods, especially meat, which provides several important enzymes.
What’s more, the majority of food people consume today is both processed and cooked at extremely high temperatures, reducing dietary enzyme levels even more.
For these reasons, people receive very few enzymes from their diets, and, in effect, are suffering from some of the most common health problems—such as circulatory disorders, cancer, arthritis and kidney disease. Other medical experts point out that young people have much more enzyme activity than older people whose ability to manufacture enzymes diminishes with age.
The aging body’s diminished enzyme activity is part of the reason that people age prematurely. Bannock’s work and many other studies that have been covered extensively in medical journals support the use of systemic oral enzymes as a healthy approach to keeping the heart, joints, brain and other organs functioning healthfully for as long as possible.
‘DARK SIDE’ OF TISSUE REPAIR
When scientists examine the most deadly, disabling maladies to which people succumb as they age—including heart disease, stroke, cancer, diabetes, kidney disorders and arthritis—similar underlying causes can be found: All of these conditions are characterized by insidious sclerosis and fibrosis that is caused by the over-secretion of growth factors.
Sclerosis is defined as a hardening of a bodily tissue or part (such as the coronary arteries, i.e., arteriosclerosis) or an increase of connective tissue
or the like at the expense of more active tissue.
Meanwhile, fibrosis is very similar to sclerosis, involving development of excess fibrous tissue in an organ (such as kidney fibrosis). Fibrosis can be detected in a number of ways.
These conditions are often marked by high inflammation. Health experts have different ways of measuring the progression of these unfavorable bodily processes. For example, Dr. Bannock used
digital video blood microscopy (see pictures in following pages). Digital microscopy shows doctors whether blood has excess fibrin and is clumping or fatty. Such sluggish blood almost always goes with rheumatoid and osteoarthritis, as well as other negative health conditions. Dr. Bannock used
C-reactive protein (CRP) measurements to determine
bodily inflammation levels of the patients in his clinical study. High or high-normal CRP levels are often an indication of unhealthy fibrin activity, causing the blood to clump, increasing risk of heart attacks and strokes. The test is still relatively new but widely accepted in the medical community. You might have to ask your own doctor for this test. But in any event, doctors clearly associate high CRP with increased risk for heart disease. Another test used in the study was measuring
erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR). According to an online medical information site, a blood sample is taken and put in a tube with some chemicals to stop the blood from clotting. The tube is left to stand upright. The red blood cells (erythrocytes) gradually fall to the bottom of the tube as a “sediment.” The clear liquid plasma is left at the top. The ESR measures the rate at which the red blood cells separate from the plasma and fall to the bottom of a test tube. The rate is measured in millimeters per hour (mm/hr). If certain proteins cover red cells, these will stick to each other and cause the red cells to fall more quickly. So, a high ESR indicates that you have some inflammation, somewhere in the body.
Have you ever seen fibrosis? You might not think so. But leathering, wrinkling and elastosis (loss of skin elasticity) are all outer signs of fibrosis. Yet, what most people don’t realize is that what is happening on the outside of the body is happening on the inside, too—to their arteries, kidneys, lungs and other tissues and organs.
Both sclerosis and fibrosis proceed with almost uncanny determination by the time a person reaches 40 and eventually affect virtually every tissue and organ in the body.
There is, however, an answer. According to Arthur Andrew Medical, the manufacturer of the Neprinol formula used by Dr. Bannock’s patients, “the formula uses individually enterically coated enzymes to increase pH range and resistance to stomach acid.” Neprinol contains “the purest form of serrapeptase, nattokinase and CoQ10 available.” In helping the body to maintain normal fibrin production, fibrinolytic enzymes, such as nattokinase and serrapeptase, appear to lower C-reactive protein levels, the inflammation marker linked to heart attacks and a marker for overall health.
Unlike taking daily aspirin, which is an overthe-counter drug, Neprinol is a nutritional supplement that helps the body to maintain already healthy fibrin expression and inflammation levels, and Neprinol does not generate gastrointestinal distress, and does not put stress on the liver.
In experimental studies, nattokinase has been shown to remove arterial blockages by helping the body to maintain natural fibrinolytic processes. These few studies certainly bear relevance, as they contain explicit medical images showing dissolution, and many more studies should be done in clinical settings. However, nattokinase is not approved as a drug in the United States and would
require extensive study for anybody to make claims that it compares to a drug.
Nattokinase is unique and interesting in that it is natural (derived from the fermented Japanese food natto). It is not a drug but it does have interesting properties. The combination of serrapeptase and nattokinase, together with papain and bromelain, offers a complete fibrinolytic compliment of enzymes.
NEPRINOL CASE STUDIES
The following case studies were taken from a larger six-month independent clinical study on Neprinol that was carried out by Dr. Bannock. Besides running a thriving nutritional medicine and clinical practice, Dr. Bannock is also professor of applied clinical nutrition for the International Institute for Clinical Nutrition. He is the author of several academic and professional reference books including Applied Clinical Nutrition (IICN Press, 2002), Clinical Human Nutrition (IICN Press, 2001) and The Nutritional Medicine Desk Reference (due for release this year). Dr. Bannock has used both CRP measurements, digital video blood microscopy and other standard lab tests, as well as patients’ subjective assessments, to demonstrate the benefits of Neprinol. These are important for anyone interested in staying youthful.

SUMMARY
These limited studies correspond with many other studies from European and American doctors that
show systemic enzymes do in fact help the body to maintain already healthy inflammation and fibrin
levels and expression. In future articles, we hope to provide additional results from Dr. Bannock’s
clinical study as well as interview him.
