How it works
Kinetozyme contains bromelain, rutoside and trypsin chymotrypsin in it. Bromelain and Trypsin Chymotrypsin are enzymes that increase your blood circulation and produces chemical substances that reduce pain and swelling. Rutoside is an antioxidant that protects your body from damage by chemicals (free radicals), thus decreases swelling.
