Toniiq Ultra High Strength Non-GMO Bromelain Capsules - 3600 GDU/Gram - Highly Concentrated and Bioavailable - 500mg Formula - 120 Veggie Capsules

Great supplement! Bromelain helped reduce inflammation and improved my digestion. Easy to take and gentle on the stomach. Highly recommend.

I have ulcerative colitis, a very severe form of it. I've been on every medication, even multiple forms of chemotherapy with no success. Although this remains an issue for me, I've run the gamut of pain medications from over the counters to even Percocet & Fentanyl patches up to 50mcg with minimal positive effect. I didn't like putting all that poison in my body, especially when it was largely ineffective. But I desperately needed pain relief. I had heard about the health benefits of bromelain, but I don't own a blender powerful enough to make the core of a pineapple edible/drinkable. Bromelain supplements became the next idea. Admittedly, I do take them with other herbs such as slippery elm, licorice root & marshmallow etc... root to help ease my gut symptoms, but the latter do not affect my pain levels. The bromelain does, it's also a great anti-inflammatory for the gut! I find that it is almost as effective as prescription pain medications without all the nasty side effects. Taking Toniiq's bromelain makes my life more bearable, and does so safely. I take two a day, one in the AM and one at night. It's a small pill, with no odor or aftertaste. I'm very glad to have come across it because without it, the pain with my disease is such that I can't leave bed (except to go to the bathroom). I'll need more help health-wise down the road, but this supplement will be a mainstay of my diet going forward. Lastly, I had a concern about taking the bromelain at first. I have pulmonary embolisms (blood clots in both lungs). As a result, I'm on a blood thinner. That medication is Xarelto, and Xarelto has no anticoagulant. I'm unable to take Nsaids like Advil because of it. So I was initially concerned because bromelain is also an anticoagulant. I was mistakenly making a connection that it might complicate that matter thinking that bromelain was a blood thinner, but it is not. It has anticoagulant properties, and since I'm already on an anticoagulant, nothing changes, so it's safe for me to take. I've been taking this supplement now for five weeks, and I only have positive things to say. I'm very thankful to have discovered it. Try it, see if you too can get off of or avoid stronger prescription pain killers. I'll also mention, that I have severe back injuries (herniated / bulging discs, broken vertebrae etc...). This isn't going to help with THAT kind of pain, but my UC is so severe, that the benefits I get from bromelain are incredible! I desperately needed some relief, and am fortunate to have found it. I highly recommend.
