Bromelain is a type of enzyme called a proteolytic enzyme. It is found in pineapple juice and in the pineapple stem. Bromelain reportedly causes the body to make substances that fight pain and swelling. Bromelain also contains chemicals that seem to interfere with tumor cells and slows blood clotting.
What is the dosage
The body is usually able to absorb a significant amount of bromelain safely. People can consume about 12 grams per day of bromelain without it producing any unwanted side effects. Recommended dosage is to take 1 capsule per day.
Possible Side effects
While bromelain is a natural substance, it can have some side effects. These include:
- stomach upset
- an increased heart rate
- menstrual problems
If a person experiences these side effects, they should stop using bromelain and talk to their doctor about other alternatives.
People with sensitivities or allergies to pineapples should avoid taking bromelain.
