The German Olympic Pain Relief Trick… A Buried Medical Breakthrough?

In 1984, the German Olympic Team quietly made history when studies showed a safe, non-prescription supplement speeded up recovery and enhanced the performance of their hockey players.789

The results were more impressive than anyone imagined possible… And the Germans took notice. For the 1998 Winter Olympics, Germany ordered over a million of these capsules for their athletes. 

The secret was a long-overlooked “enzyme therapy.”

And its success extended far beyond the Olympics. Renowned German tennis players Steffi Graf and Boris Becker relied on this therapy during their careers.10

Other athletes like figure skater Katarina Witt, hockey player Jagr Jaromir, and skier Hermann Maier also recognized the benefits of enzyme therapy.11

German healthcare professionals understand that the body can heal from injuries effectively if excess fibrin, the protein that causes inflammation and pain, is eliminated.

The Forgotten Legacy of Dr. Max Wolf

Dr. Max Wolf, was a professor at Columbia University with seven doctoral degrees, who dedicated his later life to researching enzyme therapies. 

In the 1950s, he discovered the extraordinary power of proteolytic enzymes in treating pain. 

By dissolving the buildup of a sticky protein called “fibrin,” these enzymes clear away decades of excess fibrin buildup.

Through careful study, he found that these enzymes could: 

  • Reduce swelling and inflammation… 
  • Enhance immune function… 
  • Improve circulation… 
  • Decrease pain… 
  • Speed recovery time… 
  • Reduce scar formation, and… 
  • Prevent serious consequences from injuries. 

Dr. Wolf used this therapy extensively in his practice, treating notable figures such as JFK, Marilyn Monroe, and Pablo Picasso. His wildly successful treatments and celebrity connections generated worldwide attention. 

His work should have revolutionized pain management, but by the 1970s, it was overshadowed by the rise of Big Pharma and their aggressive marketing of opioid painkillers.

By the 1990s, pain pill pushers like the Sackler family, owners of Purdue Pharmaceuticals, played a significant role in promoting opioid painkillers like OxyContin. 

They intentionally downplayed the addictive nature of their drug, heavily marketed it to doctors, and even lobbied for legislation favorable to their business. The result was a devastating opioid epidemic that continues to plague the United States.

In stark contrast… Enzyme therapy is a widely accepted and routinely used treatment for pain in Germany. 

Research shows these enzymes help with a wide variety of health issues:

  • Cognitive Health: Enzyme therapy has been shown to reduce levels of TNF-alpha, a pro-inflammatory cytokine linked to cognitive decline. By reducing TNF-alpha, enzyme therapy could potentially slow the decline and support a healthy brain.12
  • Thyroid: Studies indicate that enzymes can help regulate thyroid function. They can reduce autoimmune antibodies that attack the thyroid gland and decrease TSH levels, leading to improved thyroid hormone production.13
  • Heart Health: High blood viscosity, or “hypercoagulation,” caused by excess fibrin is a significant risk factor. Systemic enzymes can thin “thick blood” by breaking down fibrin, reducing strain on the heart and improving circulation. Additionally, studies have shown that enzyme therapy can lower cholesterol levels, further benefiting heart health.14

The research supporting enzymes for pain relief and overall health is compelling. 

While opioids merely mask the pain signals, systemic enzymes address the underlying cause of pain and inflammation. The widespread adoption of enzyme therapy in Europe, particularly in Germany, is a testament to its efficacy and safety.

As our understanding of the role of fibrin in various health conditions deepens, the importance of systemic proteolytic enzyme therapy becomes more and more urgent. 

Perhaps it’s time to revisit Dr. Wolf’s legacy and consider the potential of this safe, natural, and effective approach to pain relief.
