Bromelain 500 mg

Have you heard of bromelain? Discover the benefits of this “super enzyme”.

Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme, which means that in the body, it participates in the breakdown and digestion of proteins from food. It breaks down proteins into smaller parts that the body can more easily absorb and later use for tissue building and repair. In addition, it participates in numerous other biological processes in the body.

This proteolytic enzyme is most commonly obtained from pineapple and has traditionally been used for various purposes in the regions where it originates. In the Western world, it began to be studied only in the 19th century, and today it is becoming increasingly recognized for its beneficial effects.

By supporting the breakdown of proteins, bromelain naturally helps the body.

Consuming bromelain is recommended especially for individuals with unbalanced diets and slow digestion, as well as for those who want to support their body, especially in colder months.

A special feature of this enzyme is the units used to measure its activity - for both units, the higher the value, the stronger the enzyme works:

• GDU (Gelatin-Digesting Units) are units for evaluating the activity of enzymes, specifically their ability to break down gelatin.
• FIP (Fédération Internationale Pharmaceutique units) - international units for evaluating the activity of enzymes in general.
