Proteolytic Enzymes... Has anyone had any success with them?

I already take Curcumin and Vit K2 on top of ADCAL supplements and wondered if anyone has used Proteolytic Enzymes. Are they worth the money?

I am currently on 7.5mg Steriods and taking Alendronic acid too.

Not sure I’d want to take another thing that breaks down proteins on top of Pred that also promotes protein breakdown. I don’t know how the enzymes work exactly so this thought is based just on a simple logic.

You are probably better off getting Proteolytic Enzymes from foods and save the money on the supplement suppliers eg:

Kiwifruit.Ginger.

Asparagus.

Sauerkraut.

Kimchi.

Yogurt.

Kefir.

I tried 2 bottles and no results but that doesn't rule out a longer use might help with arthritis
