This bromelain enzyme supplement has a high enzymatic activity to aid in digestion.
Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that is essential for digesting protein. It is found mostly in pineapple stems and is available through extraction as a dietary supplement. Although most enzymes are considered to be poorly absorbed, the body can absorb significant amounts of bromelain. People who suffer from malabsorption usually use proteolytic-type enzymes to help with their ailment.
