Serrapeptase (Serratia Peptidase) is a proteolytic enzyme isolated from silkworms. This enzyme can be used as a supplement to treat pain and inflammation naturally, and is in clinical use in parts of Asia and Europe. Serrapeptase is used as an alternative to Non Steroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs (NSAIDs) which are commonly to treat arthritis and inflammation. Dr. Hans Nieper (1928-1998) used Serrapeptase as an arterial blockage treatment for patients in Germany.
