LAMBERTS BROMELAIN 500mg 60 caps

Enzyme Activity Level

Bromelain, an enzyme derived from the stem of fresh pineapples, is probably best known for its use as a digestive aid, especially to assist in the digestion of fatty or high-protein meals. Recent research however, has turned many experts’ attention to its use for helping sports people with sprains and strains. It is believed to inhibit the body's production of prostaglandins associated with inflammation and pain whilst promoting the formation of those with an anti-inflammatory action. Bromelain can also work well when taken in conjunction with turmeric so many practitioners recommend taking the two products alongside each other. Bromelain appears to aid the absorption of curcumin, the active compound in turmeric. This is one of the highest strength bromelain products available, providing 1000 GDU’s (gelatin dissolving units) per tablet. This is a measure of how active this naturally sourced enzyme really is and is therefore more relevant than the weight of bromelain. Watch out for some USA imports which overstate the GDU level per tablet on the front of the label (one described as 3000 GDU is actually 1000GDU).

Contains 60 caps.
