Herbs of Gold Bromelain Forte contains a powerful proteolytic enzyme derived from the pineapple, with high concentrations naturally found in the core. A proteolytic action indicates that this enzyme has the ability—much as protease and pepsin do that we naturally synthesize—cleave peptide bonds, which are the links that join amino acids together to form proteins. This means that Bromelain Forte can assist with general protein digestion, enhancing the absorption of amino acids, dipeptides and tripeptides.

Bromelains is a natural anti-inflammatory enzyme that also has anti-thrombotic and anti-edematous actions^1,2. This indicates that Herbs of Gold Bromelain may be used for acute inflammations, such as during sports injuries. Research was conducted in 2011 by the Journal of Medicinal Food which indicated that bromelains is useful for acute tendon injuries³. 

This is not surprising, given bromelain's powerful anti-inflammatory effect. Due to its anti-edema activity, it may also be useful for the treatment of fluid retention, whether it be premenstrual-related of a chronic buildup in the peripheries. Herbs of Gold Bromelain Forte may also assist with sinusitis and other mucous-related conditions, helping to liquify congealed and thick mucous, and soothing inflammation. 

Herbs of Gold Bromelain Forte is a versatile product, offering a range of benefits including digestive, anti-inflammatory and anti-edema properties.
