HEAL-N-SOOTHE Proteolytic Systemic Enzymes for Joints - 90 Count (1 Pack)

I’ve taken Heal and Soothe since 2022 when I fractured my tibial plateau. Helps with inflammation, plantar fasciitis, shoulder pain, etc. Started with the recommended dose of 3 times per day than reduced to two a day management of said symptoms. Wish it were not so expensive.

This item comes with instructions on how to find the best dosage for your body. It may take several days to see results.

I believe that it really works for joints until your joint gets really bad. Then nothing works.

Just ok

I’ve taken Heal-N-Soothe for about 5 years, then stopped for 2years and just started back. It was working great for most of the time, but I did not like the fact the capsules got stuck on the way down to the stomach. They got stuck no matter how much warm water I drank between each capsule. Taking them 30 min before meal or 1 hr after meal wasn’t very convenient. I followed the instruction on the booklet which was more detailed than on the bottle at the time. After 5 years I decided to take some other turmeric supplement for joints because Heal-N-Soothe wasn’t working well as in a past. In 2 years, I switched 3 times. One of them worked well at the beginning, but none worked very well. I’m back on Heal-N-Soothe and it’s my 9th day. The instruction that came with it is very detailed now! It is great! I have not had the problem of capsules getting stuck, so no discomfort that I used to dread. The direction clearly states to take on empty stomach, but nothing about 30 min before or 1 hr after meal. The new instruction takes stress out of scheduling for me. In a past, the instruction wasn’t detailed at all like the new one. From what I can remember, start out with 3 capsules a day and increase until you find the dosage. I really appreciate the new detailed direction. In a past, capsules stuck and caused uncomfortable indigestion like feeling every single time I took them. This time, capsules do not get stuck, no uncomfortable burp or other digestive issues. Was there a change in capsules? This time, I noticed the improvement almost immediately. I’m glad I came back.

I am very surprised by how much better my joints have been feeling since taking this supplement. I used to wake up aching all over and now feel better and can move more without pain.

I have used this product for I am guessing at least 10 years. When I do NOT take it, I know the difference. With that being said, I would recommend it to anyone having any joint / muscle issues.

I signed up for the "free" bottle ($9.95 shipping and handling) from the manufacturer - which automatically enrolls you in their auto-ship subscription service. I also ordered a bottle here. I finished the first, about 3/4 through the second, and received my third as part of my subscription. There has been no improvement in my low back pain. In fact I've had a few really bad days since I've been taking them - not implying they caused it, just that they haven't done anything to make it better. I have also experienced heartburn and extreme gastrointestinal cramping after taking the pills. Others have mentioned to take them with plenty of water and don't lie down afterwards, at least for 30-45 minutes. I've found that I still get the heartburn even if I don't lie down. The pills are very expensive, especially given the number you are instructed to take daily. And, while this doesn't apply directly to Amazon purchases, I will say that the company and marketing seems very 'scammy'. If you sign up for a subscription, you will be bombarded by marketing emails full of up-sells and "but wait, there's more" offers. Completely diminishes any credibility you might have thought the company had. Ugh! I gave it 2 stars because apparently it does help some people who can tolerate the side effects and over the top marketing. The only way these could possibly help my back pain is by making my wallet lighter. Very disappointed. Yet another pain relief dead-end. EDIT: I canceled my subscription, and initially thought I'd be stuck with the unused pills. But after contacting the company and telling them about my experience and the side effects I had, they gave me a refund on the 3rd auto-shipped bottle.
