Common Health Issues and Bromelain Benefits
Bromelain benefits may be limitless. First, some numbers:
According to the American Gastroenterological Association, about 60-70 million Americans are suffering from gastrointestinal (GI) diseases that can create serious disruptions in daily life. About 62 million Americans are diagnosed with a digestive disorder each year, and 20 million have chronic digestive diseases. About 14 million have acute digestive diseases.
Then there’s joint health issues. An estimated 53.2 million (or one in five) adults in the U.S. have arthritis, a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) found, and the vast majority of them, about 88%, are 45 and older.
Inflammation is another huge problem. According to one source, “Chronic inflammation lasts for months or years and has been shown to increase the risk for developing conditions such as cancer, heart disease, Type 2 diabetes, and kidney disease. Another new study indicates that 34.6% of U.S. adults have systemic inflammation.”
Then there’s stomach acidity, or gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). According to the American College of Gastroenterology, “More than 60 million Americans experience heartburn at least once a month, and some studies suggest that more than 15 million Americans experience heartburn symptoms each day. Heartburn is a common symptom of gastroesophageal reflux disease, which is caused by stomach acid flowing back up and into the esophagus.”
According to time-tested and evidence-backed research and discovery, 100% Natural Bromelain can help people address all of the above health issues.
Bromelain Supplement
To understand the role of the bromelain supplement in the human body, one must first understand what enzymes are. According to one health source, “Enzymes are proteins that help speed up chemical reactions in our bodies. Enzymes are essential for digestion, liver function, and much, much more. One of the most important roles of enzymes is to aid in digestion. Digestion is the process of turning the food we eat into energy. For example, there are enzymes in our saliva, pancreas, intestines, and stomach. They break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Enzymes use these nutrients for growth and cell repair.”
Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes that can be found in the stem of the pineapple plant. These particular enzymes assist the body’s natural ability to digest protein. Bromelain supports healthy digestion, improves joint health, and helps relieve physical stress. As bromelain works its magic and helps the body digest protein, the body can then use that digested protein to fuel the body and rebuild muscle, tissue, bone, skin, etc.
Jackie Page, Immune Solution’s Owner and Founder, described her proprietary 100% Natural Bromelain as follows:
“Bromelain is a protein-digesting enzyme complex found in the fruit and, in higher concentrations, in the stem of the pineapple. It is able to break down a wide variety of protein types in a range of both acidic and alkaline environments. Pineapple has been used for centuries in Central and South America to treat indigestion and reduce inflammation. Bromelain, which is derived from the stem and juice of the pineapple, was first isolated from the pineapple plant in the late-1800s. Bromelain can be used to treat a number of conditions, though it is particularly effective in reducing inflammation from infection and injuries.”
Bromelain is considered a miracle supplement because it can assist the body in many different processes depending on what the user’s body needs the most.
Benefits of Bromelain
The best way to understand the benefits of bromelain is to learn how it breaks down protein. Most Americans can benefit from bromelain because most of the high-protein foods they eat are thoroughly cooked, which destroys the naturally occurring and digestion-aiding enzymes in those foods. However, when bromelain is added, its enzymatic nature assists the body’s digestive mechanisms in reducing very large, complex protein molecules into smaller peptide units or individual amino acids. These smaller components are crucial for the individual’s production of muscle, neurotransmitters, and other protein-based molecules the body has to produce to stay healthy.
