Bromelain supplementation and inflammatory markers: a systematic review of clinical trials

The inflammatory process is a response mechanism to any stressor agent. Emerging novel therapeutic options derived mainly from natural products such as Bromelain have been used to reduce the significant side effects of available anti-inflammatory drugs. Bromelain is an enzyme complex derived from Ananas comosus, known for its anti-inflammatory potential and good tolerance. Therefore, the aim was to assess whether bromelain supplementation exerts anti-inflammatory effects in adults.
