Papaya Enzyme = Drano

Well...well...well. I read on the board about how papaya enzyme was great for digestion...and if Dr. Oz likes it...it must be good? Right?

Well...if you take that stuff...you don't need to take much...and if your system is like mine...if you don't own a hat...you better buy one and hold on to it.

Let's just say that it improves your regularity issues. (Wow)

From the things I've read...papaya enzyme helps purge dead tissue and material naturally. You can buy that stuff for around $3 at the pharmacy or grocery store....and yes...it works. (Well enough that I had to come write something on the forum about it.)

Ask your doctor....the tablets are sweet...chewable (they dissolve into almost nothing) and uh...yeah...they work.

Has anyone else tried them?

I saw those posts and bought some, too! I saw somewhere on here that they could help with stuck episodes. Maybe not worth it, huh?

I don't know. I mean...if you need it...you need it. For anyone that's having issues with regularity (considering we eat almost nothing and in such small amounts that it alters that part of digestion. The papaya will definitely "straighten that out" safely.

I take them a few times a day. I have never gotten a "drano" effect. The actually help settle my stomach

Initially they do that for me...which is pretty nice. They do seem to help that part of things. The other side of it is the "drano-effect" though. (Maybe I'm just 'full of it'. Ha!)

I wish I could find something to flush me out.

Hmm...I have been having regularity issues for years and take miralax, wonder if I should try the papaya tablets....

I have used them and they don't work like draino for me. They work for me if I'm just feeling "kinda stuck" to help that feeling go away. If I'm stuck bad they don't help. Thank goodness It only took me a few episodes to learn my lesson. To stay regular I eat a fiber gummie every day.

Where in the world do you buy these things? I asked my pharmacist at my grocery store and he had never heard of them.

I bought mine at the health food store. Did not work like drano but they really made me (my stomach) feel better. I was feeling like everything I ate was getting stuck. I got a bottle of 120 for like 8 bucks.
