So I have heard this mentioned a few times and I have wondered how to use it. Is this a powder, capsule or a tablet?

Do you chew it? DO you take it before food or if you get stuck?

Anyone who has used it or knows of it please chime in.

I appreciate your thoughts.

I've not heard of it- what is it?

It is an extract of raw papaya that helps in digestion of meats. I have heard it mentioned a few times at these forums but I am unsure on how to use it.

I believe it is a chewable tablet. I have not personally used it but I have heard a lot of people say it works. Try a health food store.

I use it all the time. After a stuck episode. It either makes you throw up or pushes the food down. I get the chewable tablet. You take 3 or 4. Sometimes if I may have taken one bite too many. I chew a few and feels so much better. It helps in digesting your food. Something to keep on hand.

The Drs told me to get it to help with any gas after surgery...It is a digestive aid...You get it at the Vitamin Shoppe...Health food store (GNC)...Mine is chewable but there was lots of choices...I got chewable cherry ones...Glad to hear they also work if you get food suck...(Which I have not had yet)....

Good Luck

Good to know, I get banded the 28th of May, and I have heard of the dreaded gas pains.

Awesome info, thanks!

Step04...good luck...but I did not have any gas pains...everyone has different results on the gas and healing...

I've tried them and they haven't helped me at all

Chewable tablets, at GNC, don't taste bad, works on stuck protein.

Work VERY well.

So you guys convinced me to order the papaya enzyme, thanks.

I picked it up at GNC online. Buy one get one free + 20% off + free 1 year gold membership...

I sound like a GNC salesman :-)

Seriously, I picked up the 180 chewable tablet bottle as that was the highest potency (400000 IU vs 60000 IU) so less tablets to chew.

Lets see if it is good, the reviews were very good.

Interesting. My doctor never told me to use it for gas.

So got stuck on some lamb this Memorial day weekend. Had one tablet of the Papaya enzyme and 30 minutes later I PB'd the lamb.

It works! It works!

Sounds good, I will try it.
