Thread: Pineapple core?

Has anyone tried/heard of this before?


Using Pineapple to Assist Implantation: Pineapple contains bromelain. Bromelain is a proteolytic enzyme that breaks up proteins that inhibit embryo implantation. Consuming a whole pineapple (focusing on the core as it has the highest concentration of Bromelain) during a fertility cycle can be beneficial.

For IVF*[in vitro fertilization] cycle: one pineapple, divided into 5 portions - consume one portion each day, over five days, beginning on the day of your embryo transfer.

IUI*[intra-uterine insemination] cycle: one pineapple, divided into 5 portions - consume one portion each day, over five days, beginning on the day of your IUI.

Timed intercourse cycle: one pineapple, divided into 5 portions - consume one portion each day, over five days, beginning on the day after ovulation.

Note: Be careful not to start consuming pineapple too early in the cycle. Beginning to consume pineapple*BEFORE*the recommended days above can actually affect your vaginal and cervical mucus PH, making it more acidic.

Maybe I should add pineapple to my grocery shopping list tomorrow. I've read online where they say just to eat portions of the core and not worry about the rest of the pineapple.
What do you guys think? A bunch of hooplah?

Huh...interesting! I have never heard of that one before, but couldn't hurt to try, right? Plus at least pineapple tastes good!

Haha.. I guess because of the "dirty" threads you guys have been posting lately *haha* when it says use a pineapple core to assist in implantation I thought..well... you dont want to know what I thought... hehe..

Funny, so pineapple can bring the baby in, then bring the baby out? I remember hearing to eat pineapple to induce labor too!

Lol I like pineapple ... I see a trip into the store in my future
