Influenza A, B, C, and D are 4 types of flu influenza. Influenza virus A and B are seasonal flu occurred during the fall, winter and early spring, that causes sniffling, aching, coughing, and running and stuffy nose and fever, affecting over 20% of the general population.
Influenza virus types C in the virus family Orthomyxoviridae tends to cause mild upper respiratory infections, similar to those of cold.
Influenza D viruses only affect cattle.
Individuals who have influenza are usually recovered within one week and symptoms are gone within 2 weeks.
However, people with immature and weakened immune system including young children under age 5, adults older than age 65, elderly in nursing homes and other long-term care facilities, chronic illnesses, such as asthma, heart disease, kidney disease, liver disease and diabetes are not only associated with the risk of influenza but also increase the risk of influenza deadly complications.
Pregnant women and women up to two weeks postpartum due to change of the immune system are more prone to influenza and influenza complications.
* H5N1 - Bird Flu
H5N1 is the strain of influenza known as a bird or avian flu. Before, it is transmitted between birds, but today, it now can be passed from bird to human. The strain is dangerous to humans with high death rates.
Most common symptoms of influenza are high fever, runny nose, sore throat, muscle pains, headache, coughing, sneezing, and persistent fatigue.
According to the tested assay, in influenza A(H1N1) virus, B5144 did not have any impact on it under similar experimental conditions.
Furthermore, B5144 also showed an incomplete effect on influenza A(H3N2) virus with particles (with intact external coatings).

Pregnant women and women up to two weeks postpartum due to change of the immune system are more prone to influenza and influenza complications.
Most common H and N subtype are influenza A that has been mutated to affect the combination of human, swine, and bird flu viruses, including
* H1N1 - Swine Flu
H1N1 normally is only transmitted among pigs. However, as of today, H1N1 became the first flu pandemic in the world that causes respiratory illness.
* H5N1 - Bird Flu
H5N1 is the strain of influenza known as a bird or avian flu. Before, it is transmitted between birds, but today, it now can be passed from bird to human. The strain is dangerous to humans with high death rates.
Most common symptoms of influenza are high fever, runny nose, sore throat, muscle pains, headache, coughing, sneezing, and persistent fatigue.
Bromelain, a proteolytic enzyme found in pineapples (Ananas comosus) has been used in traditional medicine as an inflammatory agent and to treat pains, strains, and muscle aches and pains and ease back pain and chronic joint pain, skin diseases, etc.
On finding a potential compound for the prevention and treatment of influenza, researchers compared the effect of two preparations of bromeline ("Sigma Co., Catalogues' Nos. B2252 and B5144).s
On finding a potential compound for the prevention and treatment of influenza, researchers compared the effect of two preparations of bromeline ("Sigma Co., Catalogues' Nos. B2252 and B5144).s
However, enzyme B2252 was effective for all viruses selected for testing, with the highest effect was noted for influenza A(H1N1) and B viruses.
In other words, not all bromelines are the same, some are more effective in the inhibition of viral influenza than the others.

Taken altogether, preparations of bromeline generation from bromelain may be considered a remedy for the prevention and treatment of influenza, pending to the confirmation of the larger sample size and multicenter human study.
