I've only had to use it once, when I had chicken/broccoli stuck. I only had to take one pill, and I got relief.

The bottle I have says to chew 4 of them. I've tried several times but it's never helped me, it's always ended up coming back up anyway.

I have taken different amounts at different times. I usually start with 2. If it's gonna work--it usually works with that. Sometimes I take a few more as I see it working to just help more. The tabs are cheap and won't hurt you.

My bottle says to take 3 after each meal to help with digestion, so I just do that. Usually works. I haven't PB'd yet! Of course I've only gotten stuck a couple of times but it's helped each time. I do also take them after lunch and dinner. They're good for you.

I bought my papaya enzyme this weekend "just in case" and used it today when a triscuit was uncomfortable. I chewed one tablet (yummy too) and it worked great! I really reccommend it!

I just had another fill and tried the papaya enzyme becasue a piece of fish got stuck and it worked immediately. I highly recommend these tablets. I tried another suggestion (pineapple juice) and this did not work for me.

all I know is when something gets stuck it really sucks. and hurts too. I would say chew your food well and make sure it is not dry when it goes down and you wont have any issues. I have had enough stuck food from being in a hurry that I never eat fast anymore and I never take a phone call when eating ever. Because I always forget to chew well when talking on the phone and it ends in a stuck food deal no matter what I am eating. Yes it sucks and hurts and I hate to bring it back for a second look. You all know what i mean. Yes it hurts. no it's not fun. I do everything to not have it happen ever. Sometimes I get stupid and eat to fast and forget to chew. oh yeah and eat the wrong food. .when you think you should not eat it don't eat it. Scotty d

oh yeah Paypaya or pineapple both work for me but I still have a second look. and it hurts. any questions.

I have found that the papaya enzymes work for me. But I have also found that the pineapple juice has also worked. I keep both on hand, just in case.

I carry a bottle of the enzymes in my purse and have a can of pineapple juice at work. Better safe than sorry!

I too carry Papaya Enzyme with me at all times just in case. I usually chew 4 at a time like my bottle says, but if I am really stuck and in a panic I have doubled it to 8. I also give these to my husband (not banded) when he has a tummy ache and it helps him more than tums or pepto bismol does.

I have also tried meat tenderizer when I'm stuck, but that stuff tastes awful and makes me feel worse. I haven't tried pineapple juice.< /p>

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
