Sinus problems are all about mucous. So getting that under control takes
a lot of the pressure off, and pain along with it. And that’s where bromelain

Bromelain is an enzyme, a proteolytic enzyme to be exact, that plays a
part in dozens of bodily processes. And one of its key roles is to help you get
rid of mucous. In fact, bromelain has been proven in studies to make a huge
difference here—it both reduces the amount of mucous you produce and thins
out the mucous you have so it’s easier to expel.^6
On top of that, bromelain is recognized as a treatment for asthma—that’s

with asthma, making it even harder for sufferers to breathe.
If that’s not enough, bromelain can also calm the inflammation that comes
along with sinusitis, which goes a long way toward making your head feel
better. And it can help your sore throat, too—because if you’re stuck with the
post nasal drip that comes along with sinus infections, your throat is probably
killing you.

of everything else in the formula.
