Used to reduce soft tissue swelling and inflammation, support post-surgical recovery, manage sports injuries, and promote wound healing. Sometimes used for sinusitis and as a general anti-inflammatory support.

Bromelains are proteolytic enzymes that break down proteins involved in inflammation, reducing swelling and pain. Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C) acts as an antioxidant and is essential for collagen synthesis and tissue repair. Together they support the body's natural healing processes.

May interact with blood thinners and certain antibiotics. Should be used cautiously before surgery due to potential antiplatelet effects. Not recommended for individuals with pineapple allergies.
