Bromelain<br />
Bromelain is another anti-inflammatory plant extract from<br />
pineapple. While best known <strong>for</strong> its digestive properties, bromelain<br />
is an excellent anti-inflammatory and analgesic compound<br />
although its mechanism of action is poorly understood.<br />
Typically bromelain is given in doses of 500-1000 mg/day <strong>for</strong> the<br />
management of inflammation.
