What are papain and bromelain?
Papain is a plant enzyme found naturally in papaya. It is used in human nutrition to help with protein digestion. Bromelain is a plant enzyme found naturally in the pineapple plant. It is used in human nutrition to help with digestion and help reduce inflammation.
If papain and bromelain already occur naturally, why are active enzymes added to the supplement?
The level of enzymes in fruit varies. Levels are further affected during harvest and throughout the manufacturing process. Adding active enzymes assures guaranteed levels in the product.

This is my chinchilla's FAVORITE treat. I give it to prevent hairballs, and also for pure enjoyment :-) I only give a few per week, since I thought the dosage shown was for rabbits...this may be overly cautious though. I give him Oxbow's vitamin C supplement as an everyday munchable. He loves both!
It's great to see this available here! I used to have to order directly from Oxbow.
Giving my rabbits a papaya tablet is a daily ritual now. They love the taste and I love the fact that they prevent hairballs. Oxbow deserves many praises for creating so many tasty, healthy treats.
Guinea pigs share a unique quality with human beings: the inability to synthesize (create) Vitamin C for their bodies. Because this is true, as in human beings, Vitamin C must be supplied to guinea pigs through food or supplement intake.
