TTC After a Loss

how much pineapple?

okay, so I bought a pineapple tonight - 1DPO

and I was just wondering how much pineapple ?

is it just the core - the hard part? when I divided it up into 5 baggies , it just seemed like a few chunks per day -

thanks! ;)

Re: how much pineapple?

  • The most bromelain is in the core.  I actually eat a core per day.  Embarrassed  My local market sells just cores.  5 for .99.  But yes...make sure you are eating the core along with it and you should be set!  Start tonight.

  • Yes, you are supposed to buy a pineapple and slice it into 5 sections, including the core, bc it is the most important part of it. Many girls on here make them into smoothies and such to make it easier to eat. You will need to eat one section per day starting on O day. GL!

    Ditto. But I love pineapple and eat it all the time, so can someone clue me in? Have I been helping myself without knowing it?


  • pineapple core is supposed to help with implantation
  • The bormelain in the core is supposed to help implantation.  I eat just the core and I actually like it.  I have found that when it's a little closer to room temp it's better.  It's also softer and easier to cut and chew.  Just remember, the better the pineapple the better the core! 

     

    The last batch I had must have been really good pineapples because the core was not "woody" at all.  It was just like regular pineapple.
