Bromelain 300 mg

Bromelain has been clinically proven to help ease joint pain and discomfort. It is recommended for a range of inflammatory conditions - rheumatoid arthritis and, in particular, sports-related problems including sprains and strains.

Bromelain is an enzyme derived from the stem of fresh pineapples.

Bromelain is a natural blood thinner and anti-inflammatory. It works by breaking down fibrin, a blood-clotting protein that can impede good circulation and prevent tissues from draining properly.

Bromelain also helps to block the production of compounds that can cause swelling and pain. When inflammation is reduced, blood can move more easily to a traumatised area, easing pain and speeding healing.

Benefits:
· Studies have shown Bromelain to reduce inflammation and swelling, making this product useful for relieving rheumatoid arthritis/osteo-arthritis.
· Bromelain can help to boost circulation, helping blood to move more easily to affected areas which can help to speed up the healing process and ease pain.

Directions:
For adults take one to three tablets daily as a food supplement or as directed by a healthcare professional. Store in a cool dry place. Keep away from children at all times. Do not use if the seal is broken.

Best known for its use as a digestive enzyme, attention has now focused on its use for helping sports people with sprains and strains. It is believed to play a role in the body's production of prostaglandins associated with inflammation.

Bromelain works well on its own, but many experts recommend turmeric alongside bromelain as the two work together so well. Bromelain appears to aid the absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric. Bromelain is also popular with people who use glucosamine.

This is a high potency Bromelain with an enzyme activity of 2000 GDU's per gram. Many bromelain supplements do not have an enzyme activity level quoted on the label and it is fair to assume that they will be very weak.

Do not take if pregnant or breast feeding.
