How it works
Trypsin is an enzyme that helps the body build healthy tissues by removing dead skin cells. Bromelain is a pineapple extract that acts by decreasing plaque or clots at the injured site to reduce fibrin production. Trypsin and Bromelain work together to reduce edoema and inflammation by creating chemicals in the body that fight pain and swelling. Rutoside is an antioxidant that works by preventing cell damage, eliminating toxins, and protecting the body from free radicals and toxins.
