It states this product is non-gmo, yet, one of the major ingredient listing there is "modified cellulose". isn't "modified cellulose" typical gmo?

Question 3

I notice that Serateric is listed in "other ingredients, is that substance magnesium stearate?

Accepted Answer

I don't know. based on information from other answers on Amazon.  SerratericTM is a specialize encapsulation system.   mzzbee answered in a post on 10/26/14:  Pulled from iHerb:"8-12-2013 - RESPONSE FROM: Doctor's Best: We regret the miscommunication to iHerb because Doctor's Best removed the usage of Hydroxy propyl Methyl cellulose- Phthalate ("hpmcp") in Q4 2012. All Doctor's Best Serrapeptase products are currently manufactured with a specially designed Serrateric system which encapsulates the Serrapeptase ingredient itself; not the capsule. Serrateric is a non-GMO natural coating-free acid protection system. Serrateric is a combination of approved food additives (self-affirmed GRAS) that work to provide gastric protection for pH sensitive enzymes without the need for additional coating. The Serrateric system dissolves by coming in contact with bile salts found only in the small intestine assuring bio-absorption of the Serrapeptase active ingredient past the stomach pH environment. Doctor's Best does not believe the products provided previously were unsafe but we do recognize advances in science and technology afford us the ability to consistently improve our products and formulations. We sincerely believe we have partnered with our manufacturer to develop the safest and most effective Serrapeptase product on the market."

Question 4

Is this a good thing to take to prevent a stroke?

Accepted Answer

These enzymes can thin the blood, which is good to help prevent strokes, but they are no substitute for healthy "lifestyle" choices, such as proper diet.
