At MINDFULL, every ingredient we choose has a purpose—and when it comes to gut health, bromelain is one of our quiet powerhouses. Derived from pineapple, this natural enzyme supports healthy digestion by helping your body break down proteins more efficiently.
But here’s what most people don’t realize: not all bromelain is created equal.
A recent study looking into fruit-derived proteolytic enzymes—like bromelain, papain (from papaya), and actinidin (from kiwi)—revealed something big. While bromelain-rich extracts had the highest total protein content, many commercial options had reduced activity due to how they were processed. That’s why sourcing and formulation matter—and it’s also why we’re so selective about where our ingredients come from.
Why Bromelain Belongs in Your Digestive Routine
Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme, meaning it helps digest proteins in the foods you eat. That translates into:
✅ Less bloating
✅ Easier digestion of meals—especially protein-rich ones
✅ A more supported gut environment, where nutrients can be better absorbed
In short: bromelain helps your digestive system do its job better.
For athletes, it can also support muscle recovery by breaking down excess protein byproducts. For everyday wellness seekers, it’s a gentle aid that helps your gut stay on track, especially when your meals vary from day to day.
The Quality Gap in Digestive Enzymes (and What We’re Doing About It)
The study also highlights a gap in the supplement industry: many proteolytic extracts are inconsistently processed, leading to low purity and variable enzyme activity. That’s a problem—not just for transparency, but for results.
The good news? New analytical pipelines are helping raise the bar. By assessing total protein content, enzyme activity, stability, and even traceability, this research is setting a new standard for how digestive enzymes should be evaluated and trusted.
At MINDFULL, we follow the science and the quality. We choose high-integrity bromelain sourced and processed to preserve its potency—so when you take it, it actually works.
Backed by Nature, Powered by Purpose
Bromelain is more than just a pineapple extract—it’s part of a bigger vision: supporting your body’s natural systems so you can feel your best, every day. Whether you’re navigating food sensitivities, eating more protein to build muscle, or simply looking to keep things moving smoothly, bromelain is a gentle but effective ally.
We're proud to include it in our formulas to support digestion, reduce bloat, and keep your gut working with you—not against you.
