Bromelain 2400 is a single-ingredient capsule formula from Pure Encapsulations delivering 500 mg of bromelain per size 00 vegetarian capsule, standardized to an activity of 2,400 GDU (gelatin digestion units) per gram, yielding 1,200 GDU per capsule.
Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme sourced from the stem of the pineapple plant. Activity is expressed in GDU: one GDU is the amount of enzyme that will liberate 1 mg of amino nitrogen from a standard gelatin solution at pH 4.5–5.5 after 20 minutes digestion at 45°C. Because it is derived from a plant source, bromelain is non-animal sourced and suitable for vegan and vegetarian use. The excipient ascorbyl palmitate is derived from corn dextrose fermentation and palm oil.
Bromelain 2400 is intended for adults 18 and up seeking support for healthy digestion and musculoskeletal comfort. It may be taken with meals to support the healthy functioning of the digestive system, or between meals to help maintain healthy kinin and fibrin production in support of musculoskeletal function and muscle and joint comfort.
