the argument for non-serrapeptase enzymes is they are safer than serrapeptase.
bromelain and papain (from pineapples or papaya, respectively) attack proteins with cysteine and have been used for centuries or eaten.
(The other proteolytic enzymes attack proteins with serine.)
These, and nattokinase, are fine passing through the stomach and can handle the acidity. Another is seaprose, from comes from Aspergillus melleus, a mold.
These all can handle stomach acid just fine.
The one that can't is serrapeptase.
I have no problems with the other proteolytic enzymes. But the coating on serrapeptase gives me some low level but chronic distress. I think this is a huge flaw with serrapeptase. I hope that the other enzymes work just as well, and think they probably do.
