Hmm, I think I've tried that before, but never tried it between meals. I don't remember that high a dosage either. Perhaps it's time to try again with your protocol!

1 word of caution though. If you're going for surgery or a medical procedure, even a very minor one like getting a tooth extracted, stop taking Bromelain about a week before as the enzyme thins the blood. After surgery, resume taking the dosage: it helps with the healing a lot & gets the inflammation down super fast - I got my wife to take it end of last year after she went for her rotator cuff surgery.

 

[galapogos]

Wah, ok, thanks for the heads up. I have a root canal scheduled next month hehe.

 

[CallmeZen]

Wah, the bromelain worked like a ffreaking magic.

Got it last night, took 1 before I slept, another 1 in the morning, another 1 at 4. We t to the gym today, bench with no pain. Wrapped up after 60kg, phobia.

Wah you shiok leh with the Bromelain, can train hard again.

I very xian.. laid off for about 1 month now & taking Bromelain. No more pain at all so I thought do a light workout with the TRX at home. Basket, 2 hrs later, twitching sensation came back... really sucks to be old! Injuries take forever to heal..

Regret I only buy 60 caps one.. Should have just wack the biggest bottle. But I realised it somehow doesn't heal. Some days I forgotten to take my fish oil and bromelain, the pain still come back the next morning I wake up.

It will heal lah - wrist sprains are 1 of the hardest & longest to heal..... Telling you, also reminding myself..
