Tips & Warnings
If you purchase Serrapeptase, make sure that the activity level of the capsules is at least 30,000 I.U. Many doctors feel this is the activity level that must be met in order for Serrapeptase supplements to be effective.
Always get coated Serrapeptase capsules so they can pass through the stomach without being dissolved and enter into the intestines where they can do their work. Buy Serrapeptase supplements only through retailers you trust. Because Serrapeptase is considered a health supplement and not a food, it is not governed by strict standards and there could be questionable brands out there.
