Anyone heard of this? YES, SOME MEAT TENDERIZERS ARE MADE FROM PAPAYA ENZYMES. I CARRY THEM IN MY PURSE. I'VE USED THEM ONCE TO HELP "BREAK DOWN" CHICKEN. WORKED WELL FOR MYSELF AND WITHIN SEVERAL MINUTES THE PAIN I HAD WAS GONE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PAMMIE Posted October 25, 2006 Report Share Posted October 25, 2006 How?Do you swallow the tablet with water? if so how can you drink with all the pain PAPAYA ENZYMES TABLETS ARE CHEWABLE. YOU CHEW ONE OR TWO. I JUST GOT MINE AT WALLY MART I KNOW THEY DON'T WANT PEOPLE TAKING THESE. THE IDEA IS TO TAKE SMALL BITES AND "LEARN" TO CHEW CHEW CHEW, BUT THE FIRST TIME I DIDN'T CHEW CHEW CHEW, IT STOPPED THE PAIN WITHIN SEVERAL MINUTES. SINCE THEN I HAVEN'T HAD ANY PROBLEMS SO I HAVEN'T HAD TO TAKE ANY AS THAT'S THE GOAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosey61786 Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 I have been throwing up everything that i drink for about 3-5 day's... when i called my nurse she advised me that i may have food stuck in the opening going from my stomach to my small intestine... she advised me to... 1 tsp meat tenderizer 8 oz warm water sip on this until its gone... she states this will either make you vomit the "stuck" item or it will help you pass it through the small intestine... afterwards if this worked she stated that i MUST do 48 hr full liquid diet then 48 hr full pureed diet (NO CHEATING --- NO CHUNKS!!) she also advised me if this didnt work that i would have to go on steriods... I did this today.... i am in no way advising you to do this... if anything i would advise that you contact your nurse doctor or surgeon beforehand!! the moment i was done with this it made me go to the bathroom --- and it wasnt too pretty if you get what i mean... so i would advise that you be at home when this is done because i have gone more then once... hope this helps!!!
