Benefits of Wobenzym by Aftab Ahmed, Ph.D.
Why did Wobenzym work so well? To a large extent, the answer rests with the type of enzymes contained in Wobenezym. These are proteolytic enzymes, which cleave other proteins. While under normal physiological condition, proteolytic enzymes maintain homeostasis in the healthy body, they also break down aberrant proteins that may arise during various diseases. Thus, in basic research and several tens of clinical studies carried out over the years under the auspices of MUCOS Pharma, Wobenzym has been found to degrade, for example, harmful and abnormal immune complexes that precipitate autoimmune diseases. Furthermore, immune complexes also thicken the blood, which potentially could trigger an array of diseases. These studies are a matter of public domain, and may be readily retrieved.
In fact, after some 50 years of Dr. Wolf's work, we have come full circle. Dr. Wolf started his research to find a cure for cancer. After decades of diligent work, almost remarkable determination and scientific insights, proteolytic enzymes have been shown to help cancer patients. Thus, Wobe-Mugos, a sister product to MUCOS' flagship product Wobenzym, is under consideration by the United States FDA for Orphan Drug status as adjuvant therapy for multiple myeloma, which is the cancer of B cells in the blood. In addition, Dr. Nicholas Gonzalez, affiliated with Cornell University Medical School in New York, has worked tirelessly to show that proteolytic enzymes are effective in the clinical management of pancreatic cancer. In recognition of his painstaking work, Dr. Gonzalez has been awarded a research grant by the National Cancer Institute to carry out a clinical trial. Undoubtedly, the work of scores of scientists and physicians over the decades deserves recognition, which has made this sea change possible. By the same token, however, it is also a testament to the insights, vision, and belief that Dr. Wolf had in his work.
