Bromelain Overdose
Bromelain is an enzyme derived from the stem and fruit of a pineapple that has properties that break down protein. For the human body, this enzyme has a number of useful properties: it supports the cardiovascular system of the body, reduces pain during inflammation, and also serves as an excellent prevention of the formation of cancer cells. However, excessive consumption of bromelain can cause a number of side effects, such as diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, as well as heavy menstrual bleeding. That is why the use of products with a high content of bromelain is not recommended in the pre and postoperative period.
