Bromelain is a natural enzyme complex sourced from the stem of the pineapple plant. It's best known as a proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzyme meaning it helps the body break down protein into smaller, more absorbable pieces. But bromelain's talents don't stop there. It has been used in traditional folk practice across Central and South America for centuries, and modern research has explored its wider role in supporting immune health, joint comfort, respiratory wellbeing and circulation. A 17th-century European explorer was so taken with the pineapple that he wrote it "admirably recreates and exhilarates the Spirits and comforts the Heart" - and modern science is still uncovering just how much this humble enzyme has to offer. What does GDU mean?
GDU stands for "gelatin-digesting units" - a measure of bromelain's enzymatic potency. The higher the GDU, the more active the enzyme. Doctor's Best delivers 3,000 GDU per gram, making it one of the most potent bromelain supplements available so you get more enzyme power in every capsule. Who might benefit from bromelain?
