    Bromelain is a protein extract derived from the stems of pineapples, although it exists in all parts of the fresh plant and fruit. The extract has a history of folk medicine use. As a culinary ingredient, it may be used as a meat tenderizer. The term "bromelain" may refer to either of two protease enzymes extracted from the plants of the family bromeliaceae, or it may refer to a combination of those enzymes along with other compounds produced in an extract.

Function

Researchers suspect that bromelain may exhibit additional antibacterial activity, as well as antiviral. In fact, studies have shown that bromelain deters certain viruses and bacteria in vitro. Studies based on animal models have produced similar results. Therefore, bromelain may be a possible adjunct treatment for urinary tract infections, bronchitis and pneumonia.
