Bromelain (544 mg)
Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes found in the stems of pineapples. It is distinct from the bromelain found in the pineapple fruit. Bromelain is used as a meat tenderizer in one application, but has other mechanisms that support various aspects of health.* As a mixture of proteases, bromelain has been used by Europeans for many years, as its components work to help support the body’s normal healing process. This is important for healthy joint function and adequate tissue repair, which supports the body’s normal recovery process.* Research also shows that bromelain may help support healthy blood viscosity and blood platelet aggregation, promoting healthy circulation. It also supports normal levels of fibrin in the blood, which promotes normal healing.* Another study provided support of bromelain for promoting overall general well-being, along with support of comfort and physical function. There is also support for its role in promoting healthy cells. Bromelain also works to digest protein, but when taken on an empty stomach, it is not used as a digestive enzyme, but provides systemic effects throughout the body.*

White Willow Bark (100 mg)
White willow bark is the bark of the salix tree which is native to Europe and Asia. Its name comes from the color of the leaves, which are covered with white hairs. White willow bark has been traditionally used for many years, dating back as far as the ancient Egyptians who used it for its health properties.* Willow bark constituents include flavonoids, tannins and salicylates. The active constituent of willow bark is thought to be salicin. In the body, salicin is metabolized to salicyl alcohol and then to salicylic acid. White willow bark has been shown to support normal blood platelet aggregation and promote healthy blood flow.*

Protease (70 mg)
Proteases are proteolytic enzymes that work to break specific peptide bonds or break down a complete peptide to amino acids. Oral proteases taken on an empty stomach are absorbed and carried into the bloodstream where they work to help maintain healthy cellular proteins. As systemic enzymes, proteases support the body’s normal recovery process.* 

Who should take nutraMetrix Isotonix® Bromelain Plus? nutraMetrix Isotonix Bromelain Plus is formulated for everyone, every day.

Maximum absorption occurs when taken on an empty stomach. This product is isotonic only if the specified amounts of powder and water are used. Do not take with food.

Where does bromelain come from? Bromelain is found in every part of the pineapple, although it is most plentiful in the stem. Most commercially-grown pineapple is sliced, canned or juiced. The remains are rich with this substance, which is then extracted. Originally used as a meat tenderizer because of its ability to break down proteins, research now shows that powdered bromelain promotes health.*

How does bromelain work to support cell health? Some cells in the body “disguise” themselves from the immune system by using a protein layering as a shield. Protease enzymes like bromelain help support your immune system in detecting these cells. These enzymes help support your body’s ability to engage in a so-called “cellular house cleaning” important to the maintenance of cellular health.*

I am a very active individual. How does nutraMetrix Isotonix® Bromelain Plus support my body’s normal ability to repair and heal? Physical activities such as sports, jogging, weight training, aerobics, and martial arts can cause mechanical stress to connective tissues or the normal buildup of pro-oxidants. nutraMetrix Isotonix® Bromelain Plus is a concentrated blend of powerful protease enzymes designed to support the normal tissue and recovery repair process. This process promotes your body’s normal healing process and keep up your daily regimen.

Should I take nutraMetrix Isotonix® Bromelain Plus with nutraMetrix Isotonix Peak Performance Blend? nutraMetrix Isotonix Bromelain Plus and nutraMetrix Isotonix Peak Performance Blend complement each other nicely. nutraMetrix Isotonix Peak Performance Blend will help support your joint function and mobility, as well as the body’s normal repair and healing process.* nutraMetrix Isotonix Bromelain Plus supports your normal healing and tissue and recovery repair process. In addition, it supports cellular health and your immune system, providing another layer of protection.*
