Infertility

talk to me about pineapple & pomegranate

How much and when should I start?  I've read that pineapple aides in implantation, but what does pomegranate do?

Re: talk to me about pineapple & pomegranate

  • Pom is supposed to help thicken your lining, in general it is a great antioxidant.

  • So I should start now while I'm stimming right?  Is there a recommended amount or is a glass a day okay?

  • I used to drink 4-6 oz daily but then got tired of it and started taking the pills, I take 4 a day. 

    I got my Pom pills from Vitamin World but POM has their own and other vitamin retailers sell their own version as well.  Mine were $11 a bottle and Swanson's Health Products has it for about $5 a bottle.

    There was tons of info on google so I just pulled the 2 links that looked the best at first glance.

    Thanks.  I tried The Bump search engine, but it sucked for me.  Thanks for the link!

    Yeah it doesn't work for me either, I used google and a lot of bump threads came up.  Some were applicable some not.  How sad that google can search the bump better than the bump.  Oh well it pays to be a google junkie :-)
