  schema:description "Bromelain is an enzyme from pineapple stems used for swelling, pain and wound clean-up. In cancer the evidence is a mixed formula for aromatase-inhibitor joint pain and a single case report, so its anti-cancer claims are untested. It can cause allergic reactions and may increase bleeding with blood thinners."@en ;
