Bromelain 400mg
|
Bromelain is the name of a group of potent protein-digesting enzymes found in the pineapple plant.
This popular tropical fruit has long been known to have medicinal properties, and in 1957 it was discovered that bromelain, which is concentrated in the stem of the plant, was the active ingredient responsible for its numerous beneficial effects.
Since that time, hundreds of research studies have scientifically verified the health benefits of bromelain.
The research shows that these benefits are not solely due to the protein-digesting action; other compounds within bromelain combine in a multi-factorial way that is yet to be fully explained.
The main health areas in which bromelain has proven to be effective are as an anti-inflammatory, reducing the time needed for wound healing, and as an aid to digestion.
It is particularly valuable for the latter when the pancreas is producing insufficient amounts of digestive enzymes due to illness.
But it is in the two former—often related—areas that bromelain is of most importance.
Bromelain seems to work via two differing pathways: First, bromelain inhibits the release of chemicals that cause inflammation and pain, and second, it stimulates the breakdown of a protein-complex called fibrin, which is one of the contributors to blood clotting.
The presence of fibrin hinders good blood circulation and prevents injured tissue from draining effectively.
Thus, the reduction in inflammation and the breakdown of fibrin combine to allow blood to flow more easily to and from injured parts of the body, allowing healing to progress more quickly and with less pain.
Some medical practitioners prescribe bromelain supplements before and after operations to assist post-operative healing of their patients.
Apart from wound healing, the anti-inflammatory action of bromelain is also useful for reducing the pain and joint stiffness of chronic arthritis, easing the pain and swelling associated with gout, and helping sufferers of carpal tunnel syndrome.
It has even been used to successfully treat chronic bronchitis and other respiratory conditions by reducing inflammation of membranes and reducing fluid retention.
Women suffering from painful periods and those people with an overactive bladder may also benefit from the anti-inflammatory action of bromelain.
Best of all, the many benefits of bromelain come with a very low risk of side effects, even at high dosages.
