medicine | bromelain relieves osteoarthritis. Bromelain is used as an adjuvant therapeutic approach in the treatment of chronic inflammatory, malignant, and autoimmune diseases. Bromelain prevents or minimizes the severity of angina pectoris and transient ischemic attack. Bromelain influences blood coagulation by increasing the serum fibrinolytic ability and by inhibiting the synthesis of fibrin. Bromelain counteracts some of the effects of certain intestinal pathogens like Vibrio cholera and Escherichia coli, whose enterotoxin causes diarrhea. The anticancerous activity of bromelain is due to its direct impact on cancer cells and their microenvironment, as well as on the modulation of immune, inflammatory, and haemostatic systems. Bromelain is used for treating acute inflammation and sports injuries. Bromelain applied as a cream (35% bromelain in a lipid base) can be beneficial for debridement of necrotic tissue and acceleration of healing | Ananas comosus |
