Proteolytic enzymes used systemically (taken on empty stomach) "Can effectively resolve lymphedema in upper and lower extremities because it removes fibrin and improves lymphatic flow."
Examples of proteolytic enzymes for systemic use include old-school pancreatin, serrapeptase, or nattokinase. They also destroy blood clots.
This is huge for many people with lymphedema, and really costs nothing except a few $15 bottles of serrapeptase or even cheaper pancreatin to try.
Systemic enzymes and also chelation are two of the most powerful weapons against modern diseases.
