I use the Herbal Papya brand capsules. I do believe they help a little. I have seen some improvement with my blood counts, not huge and not remission. But, enough of a bump and consistent enough to say that I truly believe it helps a little.

But, today when I went on Amazon to order the capsules I normally take I discovered they more than doubled in price. (August 2016)

For those who are getting good results, what brand do you use? If you are taking a liquid, how do you take it? Thank you.

I buy the tea leaves through amazon and have a glass of iced tea each day. No idea if it helps, but i have been off promacta for two months now and my platelets go up just a little bit each time. The tea i make is pretty strong so i add a squeeze of lemon. I do not think it can hurt me so I only see an upside.

I'm also doing the tea method, not sure of how to make tincture and I hope that this method does not diminish the effectiveness considering the boiling temperature.

Well, a bit of controversy in this older thread. The original post is totally believable. In fact I've had better results than these. Increase of over 400,000 in 4 days of pills. Of course, I don't know what dosage the original poster used on her daughter. 

Now, papaya leaf extract has shown signs of killing cancer cells, but that's not what we're talking here. We are talking a relatively simple thing. Raising platelets. If  the platelets raise then that's it, the platelets raised. It is so easy, with blood tests, to see how the papaya leaf extract works. So easy. 

And from my point of view, don't say well my numbers went up from 70 to 85, so I think it worked. If I am any indication, its a lot more powerful than that! Of course, I probably shouldn't say that. If that's your results that's your results, but a small increase in dose might show you something more. Of course, everyone has to judge for themselves how much they want to take.

 So yes, the complicated thing is finding a maintenance dose, but how many drugs do you want to take as a maintenance dose? This is why I found papaya leaf extract, because I wanted a maintenance dose with a supplement that I felt could give me a maintenance dose, and head off the second line defense drugs, that were going to be next.

Now, this supplement has full power to be the safety net drug for me, too, like I said earlier. I can increase my platelets at home the same as if I gave myself ivig and platelets at the same time. But of course, I can't give myself ivig and platelets, and lets not talk about the cost of that treatment.

I too wonder about the tea method. Will the boiling  point improve digestion? Will it weaken the effect? I may explore these questions at a later date. I thought of opening up the pills and doing this last time, but since I'm still working on a maintenance dose, I don't want to complicate, at this time. I mostly hear the tea tastes terrible. That's the other problem with the tea.

Oh, I should state that I did end up doing different things with the papaya leaf extract pills that Did Not work, although my digestions was better. So, I opened up the pills, didn't work. I combined with 2 servings of oatmeal, didn't work. What works is in combination with a light meal, like one slice of bread. I have  had success with more meal than that, but one slice of bread is what I'm doing now.
