Primary Active Ingredients & Mechanisms
- Bromelain 500 mg (2400 GDU/g) from pineapple stem
- Mixture of proteolytic enzymes that break peptide bonds in proteins. With food, acts in the gut on dietary protein. Between meals, absorbed intact into bloodstream where it cleaves inflammatory protein complexes (kinins, fibrin) in tissue.
Who is it for?
Active adults working on post-exercise recovery, anyone with sinus inflammation or post-nasal drip, those with bloating after protein meals, and people working on inflammatory recovery from minor injury.
Why use it?
Bromelain is one of the few supplements where timing changes the effect. Take it with food and it digests protein. Take it between meals and it works systemically as an anti-inflammatory. One product, two distinct uses.
When to use it
For digestion: with meals. For anti-inflammatory effect: between meals (at least 30 minutes before or 2 hours after food) so the enzyme enters circulation intact rather than acting on dietary protein.
How to use it
Digestive use: one capsule with protein-heavy meals. Anti-inflammatory use: one to two capsules 2 to 3 times daily between meals.
