Dosage: 500 mg
Size: 60 Tablets
• Enhances the Digestion and Assimilation of Food
• Helps Protein Breakdown and Assimilation
• Enzyme Derived from Pineapples
• Helps Inhibit the Formation of Undesirable Prostaglandins
Bromelain is a protein digesting enzyme extracted from pineapple sap and stem.
Bromelain is classified as a proteolytic enzyme because of its ability to digest proteins.
Bromelain affects protein turnover in the body, including proteins found in joint tissue.
Suggested Use:Take 1 to 2 tablets per day (swallow quickly with a full glass of liquid),
or as directed by your qualified health care consultant.
Caution: DO NOT use if allergic to pineapples, honeybee stings or olive pollen.
