Bromelain is a systemically bioavailable enzyme that digests proteins, supports digestion and joint health.
Bromelaina face parte din clasa enzimelor proteolitice si are rol direct in
metabolizarea si degradarea proteinelor alimentare. La nivel digestiv, aceasta participa in mod activ la procesul digestiei, usurand absorbtia nutrientilor proveniti de la alimentele de natura proteica.
Bromelaina poate
trece de bariera digestiva, absorbindu-se si trecand mai departe in sange, astfel ca aceasta are rol benefic si in alte parti ale organismului. Printre beneficiile aportului de
bromelaina se numara si rolul sau
antiinflamator, atat la nivel
osteoarticular (boli inflamatorii), la nivelul
sinusurilor (in cazul sinuzitei, atunci cand sinusurile sunt inflamate), cat si la nivel
digestiv, in cazul unor
patologii inflamatorii (colite). Beneficiile la nivel digestiv include si reglarea pH-ului, factor important in
mentinerea unei digestii optime. Studiile au aratat si contributia
bromelainei la grabirea procesului de cicatrizare a ranilor, dar si implicarea sa in
coagulare sangvina (inhiba agregarea plachetara, impiedica coagularea sangvina).
The role and potential benefits of bromelain for the body
- Circulatory system and cardiovascular diseases
Studies have revealed that bromelain can prevent or minimize the symptoms of transient ischemic attack and angina pectoris, being effective in treating high blood pressure and heart attack, as well as stroke. It is used in the treatment of thrombophlebitis and various cardiovascular diseases because it has the ability to reduce the risk of arterial thrombosis and embolism.
Some encouraging results of bromelain on the development of allergic diseases in the respiratory tract have been observed. But, for the moment, there are not enough studies done in this regard to be able to talk about the benefits in the case of asthma.
Reducing the symptoms of sinusitis and inflammation in the nasal passages could also be possible by using doses of bromelain, along with the drugs already recommended for this condition. Bromelain has the potential to reduce the symptoms of sinusitis in children and adults and even improve breathing.
- Possible help in osteoarthritis
Doctors may recommend bromelain for effective treatment of pain and soft tissue inflammation and for reducing joint stiffness associated with osteoarthritis.
Some studies have revealed that knee and shoulder arthritis can be kept under control and an improvement in the lives of patients with these problems can be achieved after taking bromelain.
- Ensuring digestive function
There are people who use products containing bromelain to treat various ailments and digestive disorders.
- Weight loss vs. maintaining optimal weight
Food supplements designed to help reduce weight are sold on the market today, as well as some products designed to maintain optimal body weight, which contain, among others, bromelain, which is considered an important ingredient for increasing the speed of food digestion.
- Surgical interventions and burns
Bromelain administered on medical recommendation, before a surgical intervention, could reduce the number of days until the disappearance of postoperative pain and inflammation. Bromelain is sometimes used to treat acute inflammations and sports injuries.
- Bromelain and cancer cells
The results obtained after the first studies show that bromelain can have a beneficial effect in the fight against cancer cells. Research is in its early stages and for the moment it is believed that bromelain could have a positive impact on cancer cells, with a role in controlling the pathways that determine malignancy.
