1voteA: Bromelain is a protein-digesting enzyme that can be partially deactivated by stomach acid. Enteric coating allows the tablet to bypass the stomach and dissolve in the small intestine, where bromelain can be absorbed intact for systemic effects on joints and inflammation rather than just digestion.Posted by on Saturday, May 2, 2026

1voteA: For systemic effects (joint support, inflammation), take on an empty stomach 30-60 minutes before meals or 2 hours after. For digestive support, take with meals. The enteric coating supports systemic absorption regardless of timing, making empty-stomach dosing particularly effective.Posted by on Saturday, May 2, 2026
