Bromelain is most widely used for reducing muscle and tissue inflammation and for improving circulation by breaking down blood-clotting proteins that can impede blood flow. In an article published by Men's Health, May 2005, author Christopher R. Mohr concludes that these special enzymes may be just as good for relieving pain as aspirin. Medical doctor and best selling author of alternative health subjects, Dr. Andrew Weil, states, "Bromelain is very effective in treating bruises, sprains and strains by reducing swelling, tenderness and pain." Many impressive clinical studies have been conducted on bromelain. One example is a 1995 German study in which 59 people with strains and torn ligaments were given bromelain for one to three weeks. Researchers found that the supplement caused a significant reduction in swelling, tenderness, and pain, both at rest and during movement, and that the results were comparable to those of people taking NSAIDs such as aspirin.1 Bromelain also helps to relieve pain in chronically inflamed joints. In a review of clinical studies, researchers reported that bromelain demonstrated anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties and was thought to provide a safer alternative or adjunctive treatment for osteoarthritis.2 Bromelain is also popularly used as a very effective digestive aid. Bromelain can ease the pain of heartburn and lessen the effects of diarrhea when these conditions are caused by a shortage of digestive enzymes. Most Americans are deficient in digestive enzymes due to an inadequate amount of raw vegetables in their diets. Guidelines for Use For pain relief from inflamed joints, bromelain should be taken on an empty stomach. As a digestive aid, it should be taken just before eating.Nutritional Supplements |
