Natural Anti-Inflammatory Agents
-
Quercetin is a potent antioxidant and free radical fighter richly
supplied in blueberries, red onions and certain other vegetables
and fruits. It is also a natural antihistamine and
anti-inflammatory agent.*
-
Bromelain, derived from the pineapple plant, is another potent
natural anti-inflammatory.*
-
Bromelain is also rich in digestive enzymes and quercetin’s
anti-inflammatory effects benefit inflamed intestines.*
-
Our Quercetin and Bromelain act synergistically to provide natural
relief for arthritis, allergies, colitis, irritable bowel syndrome,
and other inflammatory conditions.*
-
Regulates the Body’s Response to Environmental Challenges*
-
Maintains Tissue Comfort by Regulating Enzymes*
-
Helps Maintain Health of Blood Vessels by Modifying Oxidation of
LDL Cholesterol*
-

Bromelain May Enhance Quercetin Absorption*
Quercetin Benefits
Quercetin, the most active of the flavonoids, is a powerful antioxidant,
antihistamine, and anti-inflammatory. Quercetin inhibits the activity of
adhesion molecules, which enable inflammation-producing white blood cells
to stick to other cells in the body.*
Quercetin is even more effective as an anti-allergen when taken with
bromelain, the anti-inflammatory enzyme from the stem of the pineapple
plant. Quercetin helps with asthma, allergies, arthritis, emphysema,
prostatitis, and other diseases caused by inflammation.*
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a test that measures the concentration of a
protein in serum that indicates acute inflammation. CRP is a far more accurate
predictor of heart attack risk than either cholesterol or homocysteine.
Elevated levels of inflammation increase the risk of a heart attack by four
and one-half times.*
An August 2006 Johns Hopkins study shows that a pill combining turmeric and
quercetin reduces both the size and number of precancerous lesions in the
human intestinal tract. The average number of polyps dropped 60.4 percent,
and the average size dropped by 50.9 percent.
Bromelain Benefits
Bromelain (from pineapples) is an anti-inflammatory enzyme used to reduce
or eliminate pain, aid digestion, accelerate healing, prevent strokes and
reduce blood pressure.*
According to researchers at Duke University Medical Center, bromelain is a
complex mixture of proteinases typically derived from the pineapple stem.
Beneficial therapeutic effects of bromelain have been suggested or proven
in several human inflammatory diseases and animal models of inflammation,
including arthritis and inflammatory bowel disease.
Proteolytic enzymes have analgesic effects besides the well-known
anti-inflammatory and edema-reducing properties. These analgesic effects
are based on the inhibition of inflammation and in addition to that on
direct influences on the nociceptors.
In recent years a significant reduction of pain in various rheumatic
diseases, concerning these aspects, was shown in several clinical studies.
In the trial of patients suffering from painful osteoarthritis of the knee,
there was a statistical equivalence of the pain scores, comparing
diclofenac and enzymes. The study of painful vertebral syndromes again
resulted in equivalence of the treatment with NSAIDs compared to therapy
with enzymes.
Bromelain is often used after sports injuries to relieve edema and
inflammation, and after surgical and dental procedures to help with
swelling. A study conducted by an orthopedic surgeon showed that giving
bromelain to 59 of his patients resulted in a clear reduction in both
swelling and discomfort.*
