Description
Dr. Mercola Serrapeptase Enzymes is a delayed-release food supplement in a 60 capsule bottle. Serrapeptase is a fibrinolytic enzyme that has been used for over 30 years in Europe and Asia, and this formula is labelled to support normal inflammatory response, healthy immune function, sinus and respiratory health, and joint comfort and mobility. Dr. Mercola has been providing quality products since 2001, and this is a straightforward, single-enzyme option from a brand many shoppers already recognise.
- Delayed-release capsule
- Fibrinolytic enzyme used for over 30 years in Europe and Asia
- One capsule per serving, taken once or twice a day
- 60 capsules per bottle
Ingredients and formulation
The delayed-release capsule is made from hydroxypropyl methylcellulose and gellan gum. The other ingredients are organic rice husk and medium-chain triglycerides. The delayed-release design is intended to help the enzyme make it through the stomach, which is a common feature in serrapeptase supplements.
This listing does not give a strength in SPU, so check the bottle label if you want to compare it with other brands. If strength is your priority, you can also browse options where the SPU is clearly stated, such as Arthur Andrew Medical Serretia 125,000 SPU or Enzymedica SerraGold High Potency Serrapeptase.
Who this serrapeptase suits
This is a good fit if you prefer a recognised health brand and a flexible serving: the label allows one capsule once or twice a day, so you can decide how to fit it into your day with your healthcare professional. A 60 capsule bottle covers around one to two months depending on how often you take it.
Some people like to take a second enzyme alongside it. Doctor's Best Natto-Serra combines serrapeptase with nattokinase in one capsule, and our nattokinase benefits and dosage guide explains what that enzyme is.
How to use it
Adults, as a dietary supplement, take one capsule per serving on an empty stomach. It can be taken one to two times a day. Many people take the first capsule with a glass of water in the morning and keep a gap before eating.
