@@UA-camrChannelNL Who said anything about God taking anything away? Healing is not always about a physical manifestation. Sometimes healing is emotional and/or mental clarity concerning your ailment. Thankfully, we have amazing doctors such as this one who aid in us obtaining that clarity. As I stated, I pray peace and healing over everyone who is under this comment section. I hope you have an amazing week! 🙏🏾💕
Of course I was sceptical, but I tried it. Most surprised it actually worked for me. I ate fresh pineapple and drank the raw juice for a month or so. The floaters disappeared! I have reduced pineapple intake to raw juice 2 or 3 times a week. Thanks very much as I'm 77 and suffered floaters for 20 - 30 years.
I thought eye floaters were normal until watching this video because I've had them for as long as I can remember. I was watching this video and realized that I haven't noticed them recently. I started eating pineapple/mango smoothies for breakfast every morning starting a month or so ago. I'm wondering if that's why I stopped noticing floaters.
My right eye got hit by a soccer ball on August 15, 2023. I saw several eye doctors but finally found one who detected a retina tear. The retina tear caused a PVD and a huge big black floater that looks like a worm. After getting my retina tear fixed, I began drinking a glass of pineapple juice every day, followed by a small serving of fresh pineapples after lunch and dinner. Fast forward to Septemeber 2023, the big floater has become significantly smaller and lighter in color. I'll be going for a follow-up checkup next week. Hopefully, everything goes well.
that's because the drug companies ARE the FDA. have been since the '80s, thanks to Ronnie Ray-gun. before him, the drug companies had to constantly bribe the FDA in order to get their way. RR saved big pharma a lot of money, he did. he should be on mt rushmore.
The only reason is that the drug companies won't do the research on it to bring to the FDA, and with good reason. It costs $2.5B to bring a drug to market. Most drugs fail somewhere along the way, so that money also needs to be recouped somewhere. But be aware that I am not trying to defend the drug companies here. While they are forced to pay a lot to bring a drug to market, at the same time this keeps other companies from popping up and competing with them. The FDA is working to limit competition. Drug companies pay for protection and pass that cost on to consumers.
Started consuming fresh cut pineapple on a daily basis a few months ago after seeing this video and my floaters are already almost completely gone now. Thanks for the tip.
I've learned to live and enjoy my eye floaters, my right eye happens to have a dragon shaped floater which I named Edwin. When I'm in class or at work and I'm bored, I play optical tag with Edwin.
@@Luhaim @Siny Dominic I am going through that now. Multiple floaters with flashes of light occasionally. My eye dr is sending me to a retina specialist this week as this is nothing to fool with especially if it comes on suddenly because it can be an indication or lead to a retinal tear or detachment and vision loss. Treatment could include laser or cryo surgery. I am surprised this doctor isn't telling people to check with their dr. I wish you well.
Crazy coincidence. I have been drinking breakfast smoothies with pineapple the last few weeks and I noticed that my floater was getting less visible. How cool is that!
I had many floaters for many years and then went on gluten-free diet (no wheat, oats, barley rye) and read labels carefully. I was looking get rid of back pain inflammation and "wheat belly" which happened within only 3 months. What I hadn't expected was to see my eye floaters disappear. Gone. I was amazed. Read into it. Inflammation is key, and gluten-caused inflammation is a plague. Bromelaine makes sense as an anti inflammatory, but I suggest getting off all pasta, breads, oats, and every form of gluten - your health will improve dramatically. I also used to get serious colds/flu 3-4 times a year ... since being gluten free I literally have not had any colds or flu in over 4 years - astonishing to me - thought you'd like to know ...
Inflammation is the cause of a lot of ills. I did what you did for tinnitus and it receded. I went back to eating carbs and it resurfaced. Now the floaters. Are you still doing well on your diet and did you incorporate bromelian? Thanks.
yes inflammation is the root of all illness.... grounding our body get rid of this plague even further, Try grounding your body, it helped me alot...here a video that explains it all. ua-cam.com/video/44ddtR0XDVU/v-deo.html Reply
J Segal I have those gelatinous looking ones AND the black “bugs”. I have AMD in both eyes as well as Glaucoma in both eyes. I have had the wet AMD in my right eye for 16 yrs and have had an injection every 4 was since then. I would always have more black floaters after my shot and the Dr said it was blood which didn’t away within days. Then my left eye went from dry to wet AMD and I have begun shots in that eye also every 5 weeks. Since that time, the little black bugs have become 3D! I can actually see some of them closer and some further away giving them a 3 dimensional appearance. WHY? My dr.says he’s never heard of that and I wonder if I’m actually seeing this or if it’s an optical illusion.. o something like double vision. Does anyone else have the 3D black spots? They are very small compared to the black spot that shows up directly after my injection, but I never saw this anomaly (3D) until I began receiving injections in both eyes. Actually, the gelatinous floaters (2) in my right eye are so bad, the will actually block a letter on the eye chart, and when trying to read with a magnifier, if the move into my sight line the can block a whole word. They look just like your example at the beginning of this lecture. If you know more about this 3D or how to look around the larger floaters, I’d appreciate any help. Thanks, Connie
I am so happy to hear that pineapple (bromalaine) can reduce my floaters! Thank you! I have a doctor who recommends eating pineapple after surgeries to reduce inflammation. God has provided so many natural things to help us!
Last week Walmart had whole fresh pineapples on sale for one dollar! I bought some and ate a half cup pineapple every day for a week.it really did help the eye floaters! But as a surprise bonus, an eye twitch that I’ve had for months is also gone! I am amazed!
I’m 59 years old. 2 years ago I started having floaters and flashes that were extremely annoying. I saw this video 2 years ago and I did the experiment with the pineapples. I actually made smoothies so I could use the stem as well. After several months the floaters and flashes were completely gone. I stopped drinking my pineapple smoothies. Well the floaters and flashes just came back. I came back to this video and now I am starting with my pineapple smoothies again. Thanks Dr Allen for sharing this information. You are awesome!
I've just turned 60, and DITTO! ... Floaters and flashes in my right eye! EDIT: I've started eating Pineapple every day. I use canned Pineapple Rings in natural juice (less waste and more convenient). I have one ring, cut into pieces with my cereal. Coincidentally, my floaters are much improved! Was it the Pineapple? I also take a Lutein supplement.
@@alex-sd I actually use 1/3 of a pineapple for each smoothie. In other words, 1 pineapple is good for 3 smoothies. I drink 1 smoothie every single day. Hope it works for you 🙏🏼
I have been eating pineapple since I got my first floaters 6 months ago and I have just started to see a big improvement so Happy it does work don’t get discouraged 🍍🍍
I have been drinking pineapple juice and eating canned pineapple since last July plus taking vitamins and it is almost gone there has to be something to it try it
I have been eating pineapple slices or having pineapple juice from last 60 days. I am able to see better changes in my body and floaters are fading slowly. Believe me it works!
@@World_isfullof_toolkits : Great to get a good report back . I’ve just started the pineapple today so am looking forward to improvement . I was hoping to hear after 60 days the floaters would be completely gone wishful thinking I suppose 🍍🤔
my floaters started about 5 years ago. I am now 71. For the last year I have been following Anthony Williams Medical Medium, drinking lemon water, celery juice every day. My body health has improved in many ways, including the floaters are almost completely gone. They are so faint now that most of the time I don't notice them. In the past they were so annoying because it felt like flies were flying around me.
I have exactly this problem right now! Its so annoying, that sometimes i feel that i just wanna to Lay me down and Day. I will go to the end of the world to get rid of This. I`ve started this experiment two weeks Ago. So, im just keep going and pray that it will faint away. Even the doctors here in Sweden are so bad to mention these things, and they just say "you have to learn to live with it".
I used to believe in the primacy of diet in health, but my experiences--by way of overwhelming illness with which doctors only added to my frustration ... and my earnest quest for well-being that ensued--I have come to believe our environment plays a larger role, with the primary influencer being our own energy fields. Yes, minimizing toxin exposure is great, as is organ and system cleansing, but we are powerful energy manipulators. So much so that we can undermine health with a belief or emotions. Just a thought.💞
You failed to mention that the pineapple has to be raw, rather than canned. Canning heats the fruit and changes the enzyme structure, which is why you can't put raw pineapple in jello--it won't gel because the enzymes change the gelatin protein.
@@human777 - If you are talking like in a fruit platter yes that is fine, they didn't do any more then cut the fruit for you. If you are talking, cooked, dried, frozen or canned, then no.
what helped my floaters was almost always wearing 'shade' lens so even watching TV inside was muted. Also, definitely practicing the 20/20 rule .. if you do 20 minutes of tablet/computer screen/even book reading/ spend at least 20 seconds focussing on an item at least 20 feet away ... not just stopping the close work but actively focusing i.e. look out a window at a garden and focus on various plants/leaves/trees minimum 20 feet away
Two months ago I watched this video. I tried the pineapple thing, it works 100% my floaters are almost gone. Drink the juice as well. What happens is, after about a month the floaters will start to become extremely transparent, then will shrink, and either vanish or become so small and faded, that you cant see them at all. I recommend anyone with bad floaters try this.
@@UtkarshSingh-ru5ud keep in mind though..its going to take a while. You dont have to eat the pineapple every day either, I just ate large portions of it every other day Or every few days.
Several months ago, I started taking quercetin with bromelain for my sinus problems. Not only did it help with my sinuses, but my floaters have improved considerably.
Some years ago I went on a fruit-only diet for 5 or 6 days (all kinds of fruit) as an experiment in weight loss and I definitely noticed clearer vision as a benefit.
You are lucky , it is the opposite for me I tried the pineapple everyday, I eat salad almost every day, a lot of veggie and fruit and I think I my floaters even more, I even cannot work anymore, I have asked the handidap benefit
@@barbraw-backtoeden7419 like diabetes. We are not bats, we have to eat many different things but are certainly adaptable for short stretches. Eat only fruit for a few years and you'll beg for death.

Very interesting. I am 74 and have had floaters in one eye due to an assault 20 years ago. I knew of the enzyme and was taking it to help with digestion after a long stay in hospital. After five days of use, I became aware of a greater clarity of the vision in the affected eye. I was unaware of this potential effect until I listened to this explanation.
Got my eye floaters after having had laser ablation at an eye surgeon for "narrow angles" which I was told is a risk for glaucoma. My eyes have never been the same, and I super regret it.
About ten years ago I remember looking into a blue sky and being disturbed by how bad the floaters were. Around 2015 I decided I liked making smoothies and got whole pineapple which I cut up to keep in the freezer along with other fruits and veggies. Purely unscientific, but I'm now 55 and my eyes are very clear.
What might be at issue here is the amount of sugar that is in pineapple. Taking the bromelein itself might be a better option especially for those with high blood sugar levels.
I’ve had floaters as long as I can remember. I recall asking the eye doctor about the little strings when I was a child. I am now in my late 50s. The floaters are significant enough that my eye doctor sometimes has to wait for one to shift to complete a portion of the eye exam. It definitely affects my night driving and my ability to read music.
My first single floater came in my early 20's.looked like a semi transparent strand of beads with a knot in the middle. Now after more than 30 years the vision field is full of semi transparent strands. Now I am pretty used to it and I play with them chasing them as they drift away, hunt them down, catch them...... sometimes it's fun sittings down outside on a sunny day
I was in early 20s as well when noticed a floater for a first time.. Went to eye clinic and they didn't find anything. Since then their numbers are growing. I'm 39 right now and even can't count it. month ago I went to eye clinic again for a pain in my eye. They didn't find what causes pain but said I have possible an entry stage of glaucoma. Going to a doctor again in a couple of month to see any changes.
@@adilusa Eye cause pain due to much computer screen cause the eye dry I used systane liquid gel lubricant eye drop many time a days pain go away, you just had to cut back watching video.
I have had floaters my entire life. Made a MASSIVE diet change about 3 months ago. Every morning I do a real fruit smoothie. Milk, greek yogurt, protein powder and a cup and a half of fresh fruit. Mostly blueberries and dragonfruit. Sometime pineapples, oranges, banana, grapes and strawberries. Try to mix it up. And, I don't notice my floaters at all anymore. I have also lost 24lbs during that time with lots a walking. Over 300 miles. Not sure what caused them to go away but I am sure the healthy eating is definitely a factor.
I had a bad problem with floaters years ago. Started drinking Kombucha to improve health. One day I noticed I had no more problems with floaters. Eventually went total fermentation with Kefir, fermented cabbage and eating sourdough bread eliminating all other breads. I have no health problems now.
I tried 250gms of fresh pineapple for 7 months. I never missed a single day. I had a dilated eye exam a few weeks before I started. I also had another one at 7 months. The opthalmologist was aware of the study. He was skeptical, but he was willing to observe and record my progress. I saw NO improvement at all. I really wanted it to work. The eye is much like the brain. It has a blood-brain barrier-like membrane. It stops many chemicals and compounds from entering the eye. Bromelain is one of those compounds. I gave it a really honest attempt. I am healthy, fit and active. I wish it worked, but, sadly, it didn't.
I take bromelain every day for other reasons. I still have floaters. I have found out though that Choline - 1000 mg Inositol - 500 mg Methionine - 200 mg L-Lysine - 1-3 grams is supposed to work. I'm going to try it.
@@BellaAnn-y1v I don't know why my floaters appeared. I had them for years since adolescence and it wasn't severe so it didn't bother me that much. It's only since taking a supplement with bromelain that they have completely disappeared. I can only speak from my own experience.
About 2 years ago, I first noticed what looked like eye lashes appearing in my vision. I was relieved to find out that other people had them and that they were called “floaters”. It turns out that for the past year, I have been buying fresh pineapple chunks since they are always sweet and flavorful, especially through the winter months. Until I saw this video, I hadn’t really thought much about the floaters lately, and now I realize why. I hadn’t been noticing the floaters. I had to stand in front of a white wall and move my eyes around for a few minutes before I saw any at all. So I can say, since eating fresh pineapple regularly, the floaters are definitely reduced. Now, I have to look for them to see them, whereas before I couldn’t miss them. They tend to be smaller (a dot vs. an eyelash) and appear in the bottom of my eyes.
Make sure you go to optometrist as well. Floaters can also be a sign of detached retina. Also blood work. I’m watching some videos now as my optometrist made note and told me that my retina on edge has changed colour so looking at foods etc For eye health. Also drink water. I don’t drink enough
It’s quite common to adjust to floaters over time, independent of diet. My own anecdotal experience is just that. I rarely am aware of my floaters unless I look for them…..as I did when seeing an article on this subject. Pineapple is pretty benign, unless you are allergic or have diabetes, since it contains significant sugar. There doesn’t seem to be much information on whether bromelain is found in the vitreous humor after eating pineapple for some period. And the question arises of the effects of bromelain on collagen in other parts of the body. In short, a lot more study is needed. Meanwhile, people have been eating pineapple for millennia. So it likely won’t do much harm, with the exceptions noted above.
I grew up in Hawaii. We never removed the core from the pineapple. We also cut the pineapple too to bottom, so each slice was a long, thin wedge, containing the long section of core at the ridge of the wedge. We also used salt to cut the acidity!
In 2009 I had two pituitary surgeries at MD Anderson, and upon waking, had an incredible craving for pineapple. I ordered some with every meal. The nutritionist noticed and came by to visit, saying "your body is craving the anti-inflammatory properties of bromelain, let's get you a supplement."
I had a leg ulcer last ~april 2019, and in mid summer 2019 I ate about 4 cans of pineapple a day. I had to limit sodium, found out meat was making me swell, etc so I just started eating cans of fruit, which mostly contained pineapple. The fruit was helping so I became a part time fruitarian. My leg ulcer healed up within a month, vs trying to heal it for ~7 months via nurse visits. I stopped eating pineapple, but I'll start, again, tomorrow. I stopped, because I started eating normal food again, and it was like a habit that faded away. I did develop some serious eye problems last spring '19, and can't recall if the pineapple helped me, but the eye problems are still there. This time I won't focus on the leg, since it healed up, but I'll focus my eyes. I started taking copper two weeks ago, and it's doing wonders for my energy. I've been anemic since I was 16, so I'm assuming the copper is helping my anemia. I'll find out in March with blood tests. I found out copper is in pineapple, too and I'm wondering if it's not just bromelain, but the copper, too. I have bromelain supplements in my cabinet. I haven't taken any in months, but just took some right after I watched this video. If the pineapple and bromelain, together, help, than I'll definitely leave a comment and let people know. I've had floaters since I was 14, now 34. I had no idea what they were, until this past year.. I'd see them everytime the sky was gray, or when I'd look at the snow. If anyone else wants to know if the pineapple and bromelain helps, you can find me on Facebook. I may forget about this post. You can simply write me a message and ask, "How are your floaters." I have two jobs, so it's been rough finding time to make an appointment among other things, but if they get worse than I'll eventually try to get laser surgery. Facebook.com/zacharypzetts
Makes total sense why mine went away when I started using pineapple, in my morning smoothie. It’s been 3 months and I haven’t noticed them, seems completely gone
Fun fact: the enzyme BROMELAIN found in pineapple and papaya is known for breaking down protein. That's why when most people eat pineapple it gives them an itchy feeling in their mouth. That's the pineapple digesting you while you're digesting it. No worries, once you swallow 😜, it's all good. BROMELAIN is found mostly in the stem and the skin, maybe that's why most people cut those parts off, some without knowing because that's how we were taught to prepare them.
I did try this the morning after having 2 new floaters in my left eye yesterday. I ate too much of the pineapple thought I believe because I did have my mouth hurt, But, the worst part was that after I ate supper, my belly started hurting read bad for over an hour & then I had diarrhea. As I read up on pineapple, I learned that too much of the enzyme, Bromelain, can cause both of these symptoms. Please be careful to NOT eating too much!!
I've always thought it was silly when people said this, but I HAVE NEVER CLICKED ON ANYTHING SO FAST. It would be amazing to get some improvement in my floaters- I've had multiple in both eyes for years.
@@JohnBarrow1961 I try to ignore it, but I do wear sunglasses frequently- I find that helps obscure them a little. Sometimes I use colored overlays when I read if the floaters are really distracting me.
I know bromelaine helps with loosening mucus from bronchitis, which often is protein based from the disease process, so if it helps with floaters I'll definitely try it! Thank you for sharing this information!
This is true, I caught a horrible SARS virus in 2017. And had a terrible dry cough that lasted months. Until I had a natural craving for pineapple and ate 2 pineapples in the course of a few days. That helped towards my recovery.
My 18 year old son developed 2 translucent floaters on each eye about 7 months ago and recently after research my husband put him on nattokinase for a week and bromeline capsules. He stopped natto after a week because it isnt recommended for too long but still takes the bromeline. Last night he came in to tell us he barely notices them anymore. 🙌We are overjoyed and don't know which supplement was the one that worked but grateful he got relief. 🙏
I've had floaters for so long, when I was a toddler looking up at the sky I thought I was looking at air bubbles. I'm used to them now. Some look like worms and others like little round "air bubbles." Sometimes they form perfect equilateral or isosceles triangles. It's rare to be able to look at them directly, as they're always sliding away. I'll eat some pineapple and test this out.
That's interesting because as a kid I would look at the sky and see similar "bubbles" but they move fast and appear to move to a single point. Like tunnel vision.
@@DoctorEyeHealth I think that you could probably see that best gazing at the clear blue sky away from the sun. Maybe the light from that source is polarized or something. I have speculated that the paths that they take are vasculature in the retina, and that the bubbles are white blood cells. Maybe the red blood cells are too small or transparent to see that way.
Pineapple helped my floaters go away. Now they’re coming back after 3 months without pineapple or floaters. The floaters aren’t near as bad as before. Just got more fresh pineapple🍍
Very Interesting. I had floaters 10 years ago. But I love pineapple, and 8 years ago I began eating pineapple and cottage cheese every morning for breakfast. EVERY MORNING. I was wondering a few days ago why I hadn't had any floaters in a long time. Guess this works!
@@JohnBarrow1961 My floaters are extremely bad. I've had them since the age of 10. My doctors told me they would go away within 3 months to 6. Well, I am in my 30s now and these same old floaters did not go away but instead became bigger and more obstructive. They are so bad that reading the eye chart at the doctor's office is pretty problematic. They my doctor is recommending vitrectomy surgery to remove them but said I will be at great risk for retina detachment. Let me explain what my floaters look like now: They first appeared as a tiny piece of tread ( I was 10 years old then) and now that tread has changed to something like a thick yellow phlegm ( that cold you cough up and spit out when you have a cold.) It's like a thick gel in front of my field of vision. It's one of the most craziest things could happen to a human being.
I never had floaters till I was poisoned by a weed called spurge that was in my salad gave me a small heart attack that night an was peeing blood next morning in 2 weeks had a flash in left eye an floaters in horseshoe shape started the went to eye doctor but they wouldnt do anything soon covered 60%of eye with 2 large floaters very hard to see so later I read about frankincense I put a drop or two on a bandaid stick to my hand an held closed over eye the fumes took floaters out to back to small horse shoe shape but never totally gone may try pineapple to if you use frankincense dont get liquid in eye could blind you it's only fumes that seemed to help did 2 or 3 times a day was a immediate improvement so I could see usually held next to eye till eye watered then quit
For those wondering, three slices of whole pineapple at 120 grams each equals roughly 0.75 lb. Because the core is hard to eat, it is best to just put it in a blender with some water and make a drink out of it. Pineapples are 10% sugar, so 360 grams (0.75 lb) will give you about 36 grams of sugar.
Fruit sugar is different from other sugar, the rules are not really the same as adding granulated sugar would be from what I have assimilated from videos etc. Maybe im wrong always check with an expert.
I have floaters. 60 year old male, otherwise healthy and strong with no other apparent issues. I am going to take 100 grams of pineapple per day, carefully record the number and size of floaters as accurately as I can, based on what I can see, and try and develop a fairly reliable means of measurement over the next 120 days. I understand that this might be insignificant in the greater scheme of things, but since I love pineapples and have not had too much of it recently, I will add them to my regular diet and see if it makes a difference over time.
Thank you for your info, I used to have floaters in the past when I was ill, but not any more. I did not know about the pineapple cure, but I do often put fresh pineapple in my smoothies. You could use a bit of help for selecting the pineapple. It is easy to pull a leaf off of a ripe pineapple, and that's a way to know that its ready to eat. The pineapple you have is way too green and too pale from inside. It is not ripe and it will have no flavor.
For those of you hoping to get the same benefit from eating canned pineapple, you may be disappointed. The enzyme bromelaine is broken down in the canning process and there is very little active bromelaine in canned pineapple.
interesting! There's another comment saying that the amount would be higher in the canned ones. And then there's a comment of someone who tried the canned version and his floaters ahve improoved since. What if it's not bromelaine but something else in the pineapple, it is said to contain several different enzymes. (Would not be the first time that researchers focussed on the wrong thing bringing success in their study.)
I recently watched a video about foods which reduce inflammation. Pineapple was in the top 5. They specifically mentioned Bromelain as the enzyme causing the inflammation reduction. Go team Pineapple
Hi Doc, I saw improvement in less than 2 months. However, I drank pineapple juice. 2 coffee cups a day, 1 breakfast and the 2nd at lunch. 5 days skipping weekends. It appears it worked for me.
This was the best video I've seem on You Tube. I have huge floaters (as all my eye doctors have commented.) I followed your tip and have been drinking pineapple juice. My floaters are about 80% hidden. For some reason, pineapple juice seems to be better than chunks for this problem. And, if I'm off pineapple juice for a few days, they creep back. But THANKS. Relief from floaters has improved my vision.
I want to thank this channel for helping me resolve my eye floater problem. I am 25 year old woman. I consumed pineapple continuously for 1 and half month. Along with it I took multi vitamin supplements and increased my water intake. It really works guys! If anyone of you, who is younger and facing this issue. Then don't worry and have half of a pineapple everyday.
I have heard the keto diet can really help. I started 3 weeks ago and after watching this video part way through, I concentrated on trying to see my floaters by closing my eyes and facing the sun. Couldn’t find them. They used to drive me a bit crazy. Are they gone? Who knows? But I couldn’t see them today.
@@paramjeetthakkar7088 it's high fat, moderate protein, extremely low carb - so no bread, pasta, sugar, potatoes - but you can pretty much have as much fish, meat and cheese as you want.

For everyone who has eye floaters and are currently in panic: keep on reading. I first encountered floaters when I was about 19 but somehow they moved out of my field of vision, then at 27 I suddenly had a bunch of them. At that time I also had bad anxiety, stress etc and I couldn’t stop looking for the floaters that it became a daily obsession. But: I overcame it. It WILL get better! Try to find the core of where the anxiety comes from, maybe with a little more help like therapy or someone you trust to talk to. Strangely, I still have floaters but I barely notice them because I’m not scared of them anymore. The mind is the magic! If I can do it, you can do it too!
thank you so much for your story.. kinda relieved after reading this and maybe stress can amplify this symptom severely. I should find the way out of stress and anxiety
@@jmins548Happy to help! Give it some time, it’s okay to feel down because of floaters but as time passes by you’ll get used to it. And I have many floaters, they do pass by but my brain just doesn’t register it anymore all the time. If I do notice a floater I just think: Oh hey, there is Kevin the minion and I proceed my day 😂
for sure gonna try this out man. i got my first floater when i was like 10 years old and i have slowly but surely gottan more and more over the years, i wouldnt call my floaters severe but they for sure are annoying! i am 30 years old now and getting pretty tired of these little devils.....
@maltezz, Wow, you had them early. I just have them for year and half now, I am 62, nevertheless they annoy me, and I see them all the time. Would be interesting indeed to try to pineapple.:)
You know I been eating pineapple almost daily for breakfast for the last 2 years, usually frozen and I blend it into a drink with blueberry's and banana's. I use to have a lot of floaters and now that you mention it in this video, I haven't really seen much of any for some time, today/right now NO floaters.
Before I uncovered the eye floaters treatment EyeFloatersCure45.blogspot.in I did everything to eliminate my eye-floaters such as eye comfort, solutions, washes, and more. None proved helpful. It does what it claims to do, period. I am now completely free of eye floaters!
Hello Doc! Since you've mentioned Bromelain from the Pineapple, would taking the Bromelain be the same instead of eating Pineapple? That's kind of weird for me to ask this question since I've always preferred natural cure from fruits and vegetables over modern medicines.
I noticed that you were using an unripe pineapple. When I lived in Hawaii, I learned that the more golden a pineapple was the sweeter and tastier it would be. Unripe pineapple feels like it burns your mouth tissues. The solution, search for pineapples that are golden between the segments on the outside, which you won't find very often, especially in the winter. Or purchase your pineapple and let it sit at room temperature to ripen.
Sorry I didn't see your post earlier. I posted a description of how to pick a pineapple in the grocery store earlier this afternoon. Alrhough I didn't describe your technique, I look for golden color of the rind as well.
Hi, I both grow and buy Pineapples at the store. WikiHow and Dole website says that a Pineapple will not get sweeter after it is picked so you should wait until it is evenly golden to pick it...i.e...ripened on the Plant. "My" experience does not totally match up with that. Yes, letting my pineapples ripen to a Golden Yellow on the plant before picking are the sweetest and best pineapples I have ever had. But, I can get a GREEN store bought pineapple and each day for a week run water over the Green Leaves/Crown a few times a day and I also set it outside in the Sun for a little bit each day. Within 6 to 10 days it will be Golden Yellow and almost just as Sweet and Delicious as my Home grown pineapples. You can SMELL it getting sweeter each day in the kitchen as it continues ripen. Makes me wonder if DOLE and WikiHow and Science have ever tried "my" technique to ripen one after picking. I know that keeping a damp paper towel over my Tomatoes that still have a vine attached keeps them ripening and fresh for a good while. So, based on that is how I started my way of ripening a Green Store bought pineapple. (I put it into the Sunshine as an added measure to help it keep photosynthesizing. :~) ) I have always sliced right though my pineapples making discs like he did here for the 1st method. I then cut them into 1/4's and eat the core and flesh to the Rind/Skin and toss the Rind/Skin into my Flower Beds.
I started using pineapple to digest protein because it helped me to solve my lack enzymes and sorted my digestive system, after watching this VD ,I noticed that ...yes all of the floaters I had were gone, amazing.
@@hectorbaculard7467 Yes , but couple of big ones are only reduced in size not fully disappeared. Pineaple just after meal is a complimentary to meat .
As an experienced FYI. When you have flashes, you must go to the eye doctor quickly. This is often an indication of a detached retina, which if caught quickly, is repairable.
Look up Ocular migraine. Happens to me. 25-40 minutes long, no pain. At the end just before it resolves reading becomes strained, and this may last for 20 more minutes. Just rest, don't try to power through the end part.
Have had really bad floaters. I recently had flu and drank lots of pineapple juice to soothe the coughing and when I watched this I suddenly realised how reduced my floaters were.
Bromelain - you can buy it in capsule form from many supplement providers. It's also helpful in wound recovery such as surgery by decreasing healing time and scarring.
@@turbonbc bromelin is concentrated pineapple enzyme. You could eat 3 pineapples, if you could, and injest less than a capsule of bromelin. More or less.
I've read that Bromelaine helps with COPD. I think most of the Bromelaine is near the core or harder part. And, it needs to be fresh pineapple as canned pineapple gets treated which destroys the Bromelaine or most of it. This is what I've read up on but not sure if it's accurate.
@@rogerkincaid931 I eat pineapple quite often. A least one a week. When I notice floaters coming back I eat then. I have eaten canned in its own juice and fresh pineapple mostly. I hope this helps.
@@rogerkincaid931 my floaters were pretty bad. I’m not sure if it matters sliced or juiced. I eat fresh and canned in its own juice. Try keeping pineapple in your diet. When I go a couple weeks without eating it, I notice floaters again. I just eat then and it’s gone. I hope this helps.

I am 67 and had floaters since I was about 5. It seemed to me that the number or severity has always fluctuated, although that may have been entirely psychological. I always just sort of rationalized that some of them had settled to the bottom of the eyes or stuck to some out-of-the-way place in my eyes. In more recent years, they have been increasing and most annoying when looking at computer screens. A couple of months ago, I had a laser treatment on one eye for what was described as scar tissue on the surface of that eye. I had cataract surgery on that eye about five years ago. Although the laser treatment wasn't for the floaters, floaters in that eye seemed much less severe following the treatment, although the floaters have recently become as noticeable and annoying as they were prior to the laser treatment. I am definitely going to try the pineapple therapy.
It worked for me! People are so quick to dismiss natural food treatments it seems (less profit for big pharma) but a few slices of fresh pineapple a day for 2 weeks and my vision is already way more clear of them! Don’t know if it’ll last, but even if it requires occasional purchases of pineapple during grocery runs, that’s hardly a burdensome prescription.
YES!!! Me! Why has my eye doctor never mentioned this? 2 years later I wonder if anything has changed. At my last appointment I told her my floaters have decreased but didn’t know why. Well. I started including more fruit in my diet after limiting it for a few years - the main one being added was pineapple for its anti inflammatory and gut benefits. This is just another reason to eat it!
Hi ! I’m glad that your floaters had been decreased but that was 9 months ago, can you tell me how is your situation right now and if you continued to eat more fruit ? Thanks
I have had multiple floaters, some fairly long and branching shaped since my first eye exams in grade school. Now at age 85, I still see much smaller very faint floaters under uniform light field background conditions. I credit the improvement to my Whole Foods diet we have been on for the last 6 years (no meat, lots of vegetables fruits and nuts). I and my child bride (10 years younger) are healthy and Bowl three days a week in sunny Florida.
Before I had Covid in the Spring, I had multiple floaters in both eyes. When I got Covid, I got really sick, and I could not eat for almost 2 weeks. I survived on juice and liquid yogurt which I had trouble keeping down most of the time. After I recovered from Covid, I realized that my eyes had cleared up. After some research, I found that prolonged fasting period, can force the body to recover proteins lost in the body so they can be reused. There seems to be a connection between fasting, and removing floaters in the eyes.
@@sylviaalger4917 I wouldn't celebrate too quickly. Both my wife and I got it at the same time and we are suffering long term effects. This year has been the worst year of my entire life.
Hello - Several years ago the Lord said, “Fast and pray.” I had fasted before for 5 days at a time, but it wasn’t easy. I ended up fasting 40 days and it was a walk in the park. 🤗 I did drink V8 juice along with water. Bottom line the fast had no affect on the floaters. But, what I am seeing doesn’t “float”, but remains stationary. Might be something else…
@@kentwilliams4152 You possibly have ters( i'm sorry this English word is hard to spell properly) I have these also which is a partial detachment of the retina. Those are still there. Floaters are disused proteins suspended around in the eye liquid. Your body can recycle those. The ters cannot.
Thank you for this video! I have a patient with eye floaters and I guess this video came to my attention because Google spies on us! I love pineapple anyway and I know bromelaine has a lot of great healing properties
I started to exercise for at least 30 minutes a day since roughly a year ago. I now notice all my floaters have disappeared. Are there any links between exercise and floaters or am I just lucky?
That’s so weird. I have a lot of floaters in my eyes and a few weeks ago, I had a huge pineapple craving and been making sure to put it in my smoothie everyday since.
I'm 54 years old and I've had a large stationary floater blocking the fovea in my left eye for about 5 years. After seeing this video last year I decided to try a bromelain supplement, as fresh pineapple gives me mouth ulcers. I took 2-500mg capsules a day for 120 days. At the end of my "scientific study" the bromelain had broken down the darkest parts of the floater and what little was left had settled below the fovea. The vision in my eye is almost back to normal. The only downside of taking the supplement is that the bromelain doesn't differentiate between eye floaters and collagen in the skin. I noticed that the skin on my forearms and hands looked thin and crepey after taking the supplement. It is because of this that I am on the fence about taking another round of the supplement to get rid of the rest of the floater. One thing to note is that processed pineapple (juice and canned slices) are pasteurized and the heat treatment of the product denatures the bromelain, so you will need to use fresh pineapple, or a supplement to get any benefits from this treatment. As always, YMMV.
My friend gained positive results from this eye floaters remedy EyeFloatersCure45.blogspot.in I am now recommending it to clients who complain that they keep viewing lines and dots in their vision, and they all keep stating success with no negative effects in any way. Just thought I`d provide this a thumbs up!?
i swear TO GOD THEY ARE GONE!!! You need Tumeric with Black Pepper in it. They also include in the same pill Tumeric, Boswella, Sage, Lemon Balm, Thyme and Piperine - pepper, all in one pill. Took 6 months for them to go away. I get it online from INFOWARS.COM and its called BODEASE. . $20 for 2 month supply-very good price for a stacked dose. Some of their stuff is a little high price, dont bother with the silver, but this stuff is FANTASTIC. Another GREAT thing is COCONUT OIL-non organic, get it anywhere . $20 for a gallon and i got rid of cancerous sores. 1/2 teaspoonful daily and its GREAT on popcorn.
Thank you for the great info, going to try this out. From my own experience, I started adding Nutrex spirulina (3g daily) to my smoothies and have noticed my floaters improved within only a day or two. I'm not sure if spirulina is supposed to help with floaters or not, but it was a welcome "side effect."
When I had eye surgery about 5 years ago I had to take Bromeliad tablets for six weeks which was taken to reduce bruising and aid in healing. This was surgery to remove white areas on eyelids and upper cheek and also cosmetic eyelid surgery
I am being told that the Journal of American Science is basically a fraud and the article is not substantiated professionally. Also, that a fruit company supported the study. I hope I am wrong, but please let me know if I am. I posted your video on an Eye Floaters support forum and was immediately shut down saying there is zero validity to it.
I had PVD in both eyes at the same time and my situation was dramatic. They were like falling all over the place for a couple months. I quit driving it was so bad. I stopped working full time and went to part time. It bout drove me nuts. I seem to have hundreds when this started. Some as long as two inches and dark. Now 4.5 months later it's much improved. Many are gone and all are lighter. I'm hoping it will get better. Can you take a Bromaine supplement instead?
I've been trying this out for about 2 months with occasional pineapple eating and it seems to have lessened the amount of floaters I have/make them less noticeable. However they're still definetly there

I thought eye floaters were normal until watching this video because I've had them for as long as I can remember. I was watching this video and realized that I haven't noticed them recently. I started eating pineapple/mango smoothies for breakfast every morning starting a month or so ago. I'm wondering if that's why I stopped noticing floaters.
My right eye got hit by a soccer ball on August 15, 2023. I saw several eye doctors but finally found one who detected a retina tear. The retina tear caused a PVD and a huge big black floater that looks like a worm. After getting my retina tear fixed, I began drinking a glass of pineapple juice every day, followed by a small serving of fresh pineapples after lunch and dinner. Fast forward to Septemeber 2023, the big floater has become significantly smaller and lighter in color. I'll be going for a follow-up checkup next week. Hopefully, everything goes well.

Update?
The FDA will never approve anything that won't make a drug companie money.
Chuck W I agree. I’ve come to now believe that. After seeing thing’s in a new light. Sooooo true.
Ok boomer
that's because the drug companies ARE the FDA. have been since the '80s, thanks to Ronnie Ray-gun. before him, the drug companies had to constantly bribe the FDA in order to get their way. RR saved big pharma a lot of money, he did. he should be on mt rushmore.
Ya, you're right.
The only reason is that the drug companies won't do the research on it to bring to the FDA, and with good reason. It costs $2.5B to bring a drug to market. Most drugs fail somewhere along the way, so that money also needs to be recouped somewhere.
But be aware that I am not trying to defend the drug companies here. While they are forced to pay a lot to bring a drug to market, at the same time this keeps other companies from popping up and competing with them. The FDA is working to limit competition.
Drug companies pay for protection and pass that cost on to consumers.
Started consuming fresh cut pineapple on a daily basis a few months ago after seeing this video and my floaters are already almost completely gone now. Thanks for the tip.

I had many floaters for many years and then went on gluten-free diet (no wheat, oats, barley rye) and read labels carefully. I was looking get rid of back pain inflammation and "wheat belly" which happened within only 3 months. What I hadn't expected was to see my eye floaters disappear. Gone. I was amazed. Read into it. Inflammation is key, and gluten-caused inflammation is a plague. Bromelaine makes sense as an anti inflammatory, but I suggest getting off all pasta, breads, oats, and every form of gluten - your health will improve dramatically. I also used to get serious colds/flu 3-4 times a year ... since being gluten free I literally have not had any colds or flu in over 4 years - astonishing to me - thought you'd like to know ...
Inflammation is the cause of a lot of ills. I did what you did for tinnitus and it receded. I went back to eating carbs and it resurfaced. Now the floaters. Are you still doing well on your diet and did you incorporate bromelian? Thanks.
Thanks for your post, it sounds worth to give it a try!
It may just be the carbs.

Would love to see my floaters go away. I sometimes find myself swatting at flies that aren’t there. 😂😂
Mine are mosquitoes just as I lie down at night.
Me too!!!
J Segal I have those gelatinous looking ones AND the black “bugs”. I have AMD in both eyes as well as Glaucoma in both eyes. I have had the wet AMD in my right eye for 16 yrs and have had an injection every 4 was since then. I would always have more black floaters after my shot and the Dr said it was blood which didn’t away within days. Then my left eye went from dry to wet AMD and I have begun shots in that eye also every 5 weeks. Since that time, the little black bugs have become 3D! I can actually see some of them closer and some further away giving them a 3 dimensional appearance. WHY? My dr.says he’s never heard of that and I wonder if I’m actually seeing this or if it’s an optical illusion.. o something like double vision.
Does anyone else have the 3D black spots? They are very small compared to the black spot that shows up directly after my injection, but I never saw this anomaly (3D) until I began receiving injections in both eyes.
Actually, the gelatinous floaters (2) in my right eye are so bad, the will actually block a letter on the eye chart, and when trying to read with a magnifier, if the move into my sight line the can block a whole word. They look just like your example at the beginning of this lecture.
If you know more about this 3D or how to look around the larger floaters, I’d appreciate any help. Thanks,
Connie

Go to your Dr to check why you have floaters. Could be serious and or fatal

I think most of our health problems in general are diet related.
Exactly. Switch to NON-GMO foods.

I used to believe in the primacy of diet in health, but my experiences--by way of overwhelming illness with which doctors only added to my frustration ... and my earnest quest for well-being that ensued--I have come to believe our environment plays a larger role, with the primary influencer being our own energy fields. Yes, minimizing toxin exposure is great, as is organ and system cleansing, but we are powerful energy manipulators. So much so that we can undermine health with a belief or emotions. Just a thought.💞

You failed to mention that the pineapple has to be raw, rather than canned. Canning heats the fruit and changes the enzyme structure, which is why you can't put raw pineapple in jello--it won't gel because the enzymes change the gelatin protein.

what helped my floaters was almost always wearing 'shade' lens so even watching TV inside was muted. Also, definitely practicing the 20/20 rule .. if you do 20 minutes of tablet/computer screen/even book reading/ spend at least 20 seconds focussing on an item at least 20 feet away ... not just stopping the close work but actively focusing i.e. look out a window at a garden and focus on various plants/leaves/trees minimum 20 feet away
Sounds like the Bates method.
Very helpful thanks
Two months ago I watched this video. I tried the pineapple thing, it works 100% my floaters are almost gone. Drink the juice as well.

Very interesting. I am 74 and have had floaters in one eye due to an assault 20 years ago. I knew of the enzyme and was taking it to help with digestion after a long stay in hospital. After five days of use, I became aware of a greater clarity of the vision in the affected eye. I was unaware of this potential effect until I listened to this explanation.
It takes up to 3 months to see any change, so your vision cleared up very likely because of something else.
Got my eye floaters after having had laser ablation at an eye surgeon for "narrow angles" which I was told is a risk for glaucoma. My eyes have never been the same, and I super regret it.
About ten years ago I remember looking into a blue sky and being disturbed by how bad the floaters were. Around 2015 I decided I liked making smoothies and got whole pineapple which I cut up to keep in the freezer along with other fruits and veggies. Purely unscientific, but I'm now 55 and my eyes are very clear.

What might be at issue here is the amount of sugar that is in pineapple. Taking the bromelein itself might be a better option especially for those with high blood sugar levels.
I’ve had floaters as long as I can remember. I recall asking the eye doctor about the little strings when I was a child. I am now in my late 50s. The floaters are significant enough that my eye doctor sometimes has to wait for one to shift to complete a portion of the eye exam. It definitely affects my night driving and my ability to read music.
My first single floater came in my early 20's.looked like a semi transparent strand of beads with a knot in the middle. Now after more than 30 years the vision field is full of semi transparent strands. Now I am pretty used to it and I play with them chasing them as they drift away, hunt them down, catch them...... sometimes it's fun sittings down outside on a sunny day
@MR De LeónHave your floaters improve over time or they are the same?
I was in early 20s as well when noticed a floater for a first time.. Went to eye clinic and they didn't find anything. Since then their numbers are growing. I'm 39 right now and even can't count it. month ago I went to eye clinic again for a pain in my eye. They didn't find what causes pain but said I have possible an entry stage of glaucoma. Going to a doctor again in a couple of month to see any changes.

I have had floaters my entire life. Made a MASSIVE diet change about 3 months ago. Every morning I do a real fruit smoothie. Milk, greek yogurt, protein powder and a cup and a half of fresh fruit. Mostly blueberries and dragonfruit. Sometime pineapples, oranges, banana, grapes and strawberries. Try to mix it up. And, I don't notice my floaters at all anymore. I have also lost 24lbs during that time with lots a walking. Over 300 miles. Not sure what caused them to go away but I am sure the healthy eating is definitely a factor.
I had a bad problem with floaters years ago. Started drinking Kombucha to improve health. One day I noticed I had no more problems with floaters. Eventually went total fermentation with Kefir, fermented cabbage and eating sourdough bread eliminating all other breads. I have no health problems now.
Your floaters disappeared?
I tried 250gms of fresh pineapple for 7 months. I never missed a single day. I had a dilated eye exam a few weeks before I started. I also had another one at 7 months. The opthalmologist was aware of the study. He was skeptical, but he was willing to observe and record my progress. I saw NO improvement at all. I really wanted it to work. The eye is much like the brain. It has a blood-brain barrier-like membrane. It stops many chemicals and compounds from entering the eye. Bromelain is one of those compounds. I gave it a really honest attempt. I am healthy, fit and active. I wish it worked, but, sadly, it didn't.
So it's hogwash then?
I take bromelain every day for other reasons. I still have floaters. I have found out though that Choline - 1000 mg
Inositol - 500 mg
Methionine - 200 mg
L-Lysine - 1-3 grams is supposed to work. I'm going to try it.
Good to know, thanks for sharing your story.
@@tessmoore3762 did it work
I had eye floaters for years but since taking a supplement which includes bromelain they have disappeared entirely..it works..
Hi! May i ask what the supplement is? 💕
Lie?
@@BellaAnn-y1v I don't lie..
@@MsCazanova55 sorry didn't want to offend u... Just can u tell me the reason why ur floaters actually appeared? ((
@@BellaAnn-y1v I don't know why my floaters appeared. I had them for years since adolescence and it wasn't severe so it didn't bother me that much. It's only since taking a supplement with bromelain that they have completely disappeared. I can only speak from my own experience.
About 2 years ago, I first noticed what looked like eye lashes appearing in my vision. I was relieved to find out that other people had them and that they were called “floaters”. It turns out that for the past year, I have been buying fresh pineapple chunks since they are always sweet and flavorful, especially through the winter months. Until I saw this video, I hadn’t really thought much about the floaters lately, and now I realize why. I hadn’t been noticing the floaters. I had to stand in front of a white wall and move my eyes around for a few minutes before I saw any at all. So I can say, since eating fresh pineapple regularly, the floaters are definitely reduced. Now, I have to look for them to see them, whereas before I couldn’t miss them. They tend to be smaller (a dot vs. an eyelash) and appear in the bottom of my eyes.
this is really encouraging !
Thank you for giving me hope!
Make sure you go to optometrist as well. Floaters can also be a sign of detached retina. Also blood work. I’m watching some videos now as my optometrist made note and told me that my retina on edge has changed colour so looking at foods etc
For eye health. Also drink water. I don’t drink enough
It’s quite common to adjust to floaters over time, independent of diet. My own anecdotal experience is just that. I rarely am aware of my floaters unless I look for them…..as I did when seeing an article on this subject.
Pineapple is pretty benign, unless you are allergic or have diabetes, since it contains significant sugar. There doesn’t seem to be much information on whether bromelain is found in the vitreous humor after eating pineapple for some period. And the question arises of the effects of bromelain on collagen in other parts of the body.
In short, a lot more study is needed. Meanwhile, people have been eating pineapple for millennia. So it likely won’t do much harm, with the exceptions noted above.
@@intuitivediane
Especially if the floaters are accompanied by flashes or sparkly light.
I grew up in Hawaii. We never removed the core from the pineapple. We also cut the pineapple too to bottom, so each slice was a long, thin wedge, containing the long section of core at the ridge of the wedge. We also used salt to cut the acidity!
I recently bought a pineapple and couldn't believe how acidic it was. I burnt my tongue.
This is very informative. Thanks.
Mark Richmond, " We also used salt to cut the acidity!"
@dl7596 so don't put salt on it?
In 2009 I had two pituitary surgeries at MD Anderson, and upon waking, had an incredible craving for pineapple. I ordered some with every meal. The nutritionist noticed and came by to visit, saying "your body is craving the anti-inflammatory properties of bromelain, let's get you a supplement."
That's very interesting. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks for saying it’s not FDA approved. That’s a great clue that it likely works.
Hahaha
one pineapple a day keeps the floaters away
Lol
That's a lot of sugar.
Really?
I eat pineapple often
One piece or slice of pineapple keeps the floaters away.
I had a leg ulcer last ~april 2019, and in mid summer 2019 I ate about 4 cans of pineapple a day. I had to limit sodium, found out meat was making me swell, etc so I just started eating cans of fruit, which mostly contained pineapple. The fruit was helping so I became a part time fruitarian.
My leg ulcer healed up within a month, vs trying to heal it for ~7 months via nurse visits. I stopped eating pineapple, but I'll start, again, tomorrow. I stopped, because I started eating normal food again, and it was like a habit that faded away.
I did develop some serious eye problems last spring '19, and can't recall if the pineapple helped me, but the eye problems are still there. This time I won't focus on the leg, since it healed up, but I'll focus my eyes.
I started taking copper two weeks ago, and it's doing wonders for my energy. I've been anemic since I was 16, so I'm assuming the copper is helping my anemia. I'll find out in March with blood tests. I found out copper is in pineapple, too and I'm wondering if it's not just bromelain, but the copper, too.
I have bromelain supplements in my cabinet. I haven't taken any in months, but just took some right after I watched this video.
If the pineapple and bromelain, together, help, than I'll definitely leave a comment and let people know. I've had floaters since I was 14, now 34. I had no idea what they were, until this past year.. I'd see them everytime the sky was gray, or when I'd look at the snow.
If anyone else wants to know if the pineapple and bromelain helps, you can find me on Facebook. I may forget about this post. You can simply write me a message and ask, "How are your floaters." I have two jobs, so it's been rough finding time to make an appointment among other things, but if they get worse than I'll eventually try to get laser surgery.

Makes total sense why mine went away when I started using pineapple, in my morning smoothie. It’s been 3 months and I haven’t noticed them, seems completely gone
Give me your whatsapp
Fun fact: the enzyme BROMELAIN found in pineapple and papaya is known for breaking down protein. That's why when most people eat pineapple it gives them an itchy feeling in their mouth. That's the pineapple digesting you while you're digesting it. No worries, once you swallow 😜, it's all good. BROMELAIN is found mostly in the stem and the skin, maybe that's why most people cut those parts off, some without knowing because that's how we were taught to prepare them.
not true for everyone...i get terrible stomach ache after eating pineapple or drinking fresh juice...too bad cause i love pineapples! 😂
I did try this the morning after having 2 new floaters in my left eye yesterday. I ate too much of the pineapple thought I believe because I did have my mouth hurt, But, the worst part was that after I ate supper, my belly started hurting read bad for over an hour & then I had diarrhea. As I read up on pineapple, I learned that too much of the enzyme, Bromelain, can cause both of these symptoms. Please be careful to NOT eating too much!!
I've always thought it was silly when people said this, but I HAVE NEVER CLICKED ON ANYTHING SO FAST. It would be amazing to get some improvement in my floaters- I've had multiple in both eyes for years.
How do you deal with it?
@@JohnBarrow1961 I try to ignore it, but I do wear sunglasses frequently- I find that helps obscure them a little. Sometimes I use colored overlays when I read if the floaters are really distracting me.

Rachel B. Try to drink lots of carrot juice ! Alas well ,also I think Vitamin A helps.
I know bromelaine helps with loosening mucus from bronchitis, which often is protein based from the disease process, so if it helps with floaters I'll definitely try it! Thank you for sharing this information!
This is true, I caught a horrible SARS virus in 2017. And had a terrible dry cough that lasted months. Until I had a natural craving for pineapple and ate 2 pineapples in the course of a few days. That helped towards my recovery.
My 18 year old son developed 2 translucent floaters on each eye about 7 months ago and recently after research my husband put him on nattokinase for a week and bromeline capsules. He stopped natto after a week because it isnt recommended for too long but still takes the bromeline. Last night he came in to tell us he barely notices them anymore. 🙌We are overjoyed and don't know which supplement was the one that worked but grateful he got relief. 🙏
Incredible 🎉😮
Pressed pause, ran to the store to buy pineapples.... Anyone with me..??

I'm giving it a crack. Goodness, that bromelain is prickly on the tongue! Only on day 2. 3 months is going to be loooong.
@@GemilyMez hows it going so far?
I've had floaters for so long, when I was a toddler looking up at the sky I thought I was looking at air bubbles. I'm used to them now. Some look like worms and others like little round "air bubbles." Sometimes they form perfect equilateral or isosceles triangles. It's rare to be able to look at them directly, as they're always sliding away. I'll eat some pineapple and test this out.
That's interesting because as a kid I would look at the sky and see similar "bubbles" but they move fast and appear to move to a single point. Like tunnel vision.
@@DoctorEyeHealth I’ve been describing this to my doctor and mom for years but no one knows what I mean. So those are eye floaters??
So they don't go 😞😞😞😞
Can you post an update on this ?
@@DoctorEyeHealth I think that you could probably see that best gazing at the clear blue sky away from the sun. Maybe the light from that source is polarized or something. I have speculated that the paths that they take are vasculature in the retina, and that the bubbles are white blood cells. Maybe the red blood cells are too small or transparent to see that way.
I use bromalaine works well with turmeric.. and lessons pain, inflammation.
Amazing stuff.
Pineapple helped my floaters go away. Now they’re coming back after 3 months without pineapple or floaters. The floaters aren’t near as bad as before. Just got more fresh pineapple🍍
You are great! Have a sense of humor, which is very necessary. Thanks.
Very Interesting. I had floaters 10 years ago. But I love pineapple, and 8 years ago I began eating pineapple and cottage cheese every morning for breakfast. EVERY MORNING. I was wondering a few days ago why I hadn't had any floaters in a long time. Guess this works!
How many floaters did you have? Now they are completely gone?
I've had floaters for over 25 years. Thankfully, I love pineapple, so I'm going to try this. It can't hurt!
How bad are your floaters and how have you dealt with thm?
Do give us feedback
@@JohnBarrow1961 My floaters are extremely bad. I've had them since the age of 10. My doctors told me they would go away within 3 months to 6. Well, I am in my 30s now and these same old floaters did not go away but instead became bigger and more obstructive. They are so bad that reading the eye chart at the doctor's office is pretty problematic. They my doctor is recommending vitrectomy surgery to remove them but said I will be at great risk for retina detachment. Let me explain what my floaters look like now: They first appeared as a tiny piece of tread ( I was 10 years old then) and now that tread has changed to something like a thick yellow phlegm ( that cold you cough up and spit out when you have a cold.) It's like a thick gel in front of my field of vision. It's one of the most craziest things could happen to a human being.
Please update
I never had floaters till I was poisoned by a weed called spurge that was in my salad gave me a small heart attack that night an was peeing blood next morning in 2 weeks had a flash in left eye an floaters in horseshoe shape started the went to eye doctor but they wouldnt do anything soon covered 60%of eye with 2 large floaters very hard to see so later I read about frankincense I put a drop or two on a bandaid stick to my hand an held closed over eye the fumes took floaters out to back to small horse shoe shape but never totally gone may try pineapple to if you use frankincense dont get liquid in eye could blind you it's only fumes that seemed to help did 2 or 3 times a day was a immediate improvement so I could see usually held next to eye till eye watered then quit
For those wondering, three slices of whole pineapple at 120 grams each equals roughly 0.75 lb. Because the core is hard to eat, it is best to just put it in a blender with some water and make a drink out of it. Pineapples are 10% sugar, so 360 grams (0.75 lb) will give you about 36 grams of sugar.
Hey Stanley, I'm a Vietnam vet too! 26 months in 336th Assault Helicopter Co. in Soc Trang 1968-1970. Welcome home brother.
120 grams equal 0.0265 lbs. the 0.75 listed about would be for three slices.
If one isn't diabetic, should they be concerned about eating too much pineapple?
Fruit sugar is different from other sugar, the rules are not really the same as adding granulated sugar would be from what I have assimilated from videos etc. Maybe im wrong always check with an expert.
@@julien1 Wrong, fructose (fruit sugar) affects you exactly the same as any other sugar. Those old beliefs are easily disproved
I have floaters. 60 year old male, otherwise healthy and strong with no other apparent issues. I am going to take 100 grams of pineapple per day, carefully record the number and size of floaters as accurately as I can, based on what I can see, and try and develop a fairly reliable means of measurement over the next 120 days. I understand that this might be insignificant in the greater scheme of things, but since I love pineapples and have not had too much of it recently, I will add them to my regular diet and see if it makes a difference over time.
Well I wish the best for you!
Use fresh, apparently.
What are your results today ?
Thank you for your info, I used to have floaters in the past when I was ill, but not any more. I did not know about the pineapple cure, but I do often put fresh pineapple in my smoothies. You could use a bit of help for selecting the pineapple. It is easy to pull a leaf off of a ripe pineapple, and that's a way to know that its ready to eat. The pineapple you have is way too green and too pale from inside. It is not ripe and it will have no flavor.
Do you have advice on how you cut them ? That is the part i don't like .
Thank you!
So glad I watched the video. After the thumbnail I was ready to squeeze pineapple juice in my eyes.

@@phxsunsfaninsd same here even if i know it'll sting

For those of you hoping to get the same benefit from eating canned pineapple, you may be disappointed. The enzyme bromelaine is broken down in the canning process and there is very little active bromelaine in canned pineapple.
interesting! There's another comment saying that the amount would be higher in the canned ones. And then there's a comment of someone who tried the canned version and his floaters ahve improoved since.
What if it's not bromelaine but something else in the pineapple, it is said to contain several different enzymes. (Would not be the first time that researchers focussed on the wrong thing bringing success in their study.)
I recently watched a video about foods which reduce inflammation. Pineapple was in the top 5. They specifically mentioned Bromelain as the enzyme causing the inflammation reduction. Go team Pineapple
I always eat the pineapple core! It reminds me of bamboo shoot. I like the taste and crunchy texture, and figure it has good fibre content.

Hi Doc,
I saw improvement in less than 2 months. However, I drank pineapple juice. 2 coffee cups a day, 1 breakfast and the 2nd at lunch. 5 days skipping weekends. It appears it worked for me.

Did you juice it yourself, or buy in a can?
@Ari Casual - Hi! How are your eye floaters now? Did you purchase the Dole 8.4 ounce cans of juice to drink your pineapple juice 2x a day?
This was the best video I've seem on You Tube. I have huge floaters (as all my eye doctors have commented.) I followed your tip and have been drinking pineapple juice. My floaters are about 80% hidden. For some reason, pineapple juice seems to be better than chunks for this problem. And, if I'm off pineapple juice for a few days, they creep back. But THANKS. Relief from floaters has improved my vision.

For everyone who has eye floaters and are currently in panic: keep on reading.
I first encountered floaters when I was about 19 but somehow they moved out of my field of vision, then at 27 I suddenly had a bunch of them. At that time I also had bad anxiety, stress etc and I couldn’t stop looking for the floaters that it became a daily obsession. But: I overcame it. It WILL get better! Try to find the core of where the anxiety comes from, maybe with a little more help like therapy or someone you trust to talk to. Strangely, I still have floaters but I barely notice them because I’m not scared of them anymore. The mind is the magic! If I can do it, you can do it too!

@@BCS-TArunachalam what about your floaters situation now?
I noticed that you were using an unripe pineapple. When I lived in Hawaii, I learned that the more golden a pineapple was the sweeter and tastier it would be. Unripe pineapple feels like it burns your mouth tissues. The solution, search for pineapples that are golden between the segments on the outside, which you won't find very often, especially in the winter. Or purchase your pineapple and let it sit at room temperature to ripen.
Sorry I didn't see your post earlier. I posted a description of how to pick a pineapple in the grocery store earlier this afternoon. Alrhough I didn't describe your technique, I look for golden color of the rind as well.
Hi, I both grow and buy Pineapples at the store. WikiHow and Dole website says that a Pineapple will not get sweeter after it is picked so you should wait until it is evenly golden to pick it...i.e...ripened on the Plant.
"My" experience does not totally match up with that. Yes, letting my pineapples ripen to a Golden Yellow on the plant before picking are the sweetest and best pineapples I have ever had. But, I can get a GREEN store bought pineapple and each day for a week run water over the Green Leaves/Crown a few times a day and I also set it outside in the Sun for a little bit each day. Within 6 to 10 days it will be Golden Yellow and almost just as Sweet and Delicious as my Home grown pineapples. You can SMELL it getting sweeter each day in the kitchen as it continues ripen.
Makes me wonder if DOLE and WikiHow and Science have ever tried "my" technique to ripen one after picking. I know that keeping a damp paper towel over my Tomatoes that still have a vine attached keeps them ripening and fresh for a good while. So, based on that is how I started my way of ripening a Green Store bought pineapple. (I put it into the Sunshine as an added measure to help it keep photosynthesizing. :~) )
I have always sliced right though my pineapples making discs like he did here for the 1st method. I then cut them into 1/4's and eat the core and flesh to the Rind/Skin and toss the Rind/Skin into my Flower Beds.

As an experienced FYI. When you have flashes, you must go to the eye doctor quickly. This is often an indication of a detached retina, which if caught quickly, is repairable.

Have had really bad floaters. I recently had flu and drank lots of pineapple juice to soothe the coughing and when I watched this I suddenly realised how reduced my floaters were.
Bromelain - you can buy it in capsule form from many supplement providers. It's also helpful in wound recovery such as surgery by decreasing healing time and scarring.
@@turbonbc bromelin is concentrated pineapple enzyme. You could eat 3 pineapples, if you could, and injest less than a capsule of bromelin. More or less.
I've read that Bromelaine helps with COPD. I think most of the Bromelaine is near the core or harder part. And, it needs to be fresh pineapple as canned pineapple gets treated which destroys the Bromelaine or most of it. This is what I've read up on but not sure if it's accurate.
Pineapple worked for me. I didn’t even know it was good for floaters, I realized it last summer.

I think im falling in love with Doctor Eye Health
I am 67 and had floaters since I was about 5. It seemed to me that the number or severity has always fluctuated, although that may have been entirely psychological. I always just sort of rationalized that some of them had settled to the bottom of the eyes or stuck to some out-of-the-way place in my eyes. In more recent years, they have been increasing and most annoying when looking at computer screens. A couple of months ago, I had a laser treatment on one eye for what was described as scar tissue on the surface of that eye. I had cataract surgery on that eye about five years ago. Although the laser treatment wasn't for the floaters, floaters in that eye seemed much less severe following the treatment, although the floaters have recently become as noticeable and annoying as they were prior to the laser treatment. I am definitely going to try the pineapple therapy.
It worked for me! People are so quick to dismiss natural food treatments it seems (less profit for big pharma) but a few slices of fresh pineapple a day for 2 weeks and my vision is already way more clear of them!
Don’t know if it’ll last, but even if it requires occasional purchases of pineapple during grocery runs, that’s hardly a burdensome prescription.

I have had multiple floaters, some fairly long and branching shaped since my first eye exams in grade school. Now at age 85, I still see much smaller very faint floaters under uniform light field background conditions.

I am sceptical of everything, but willing to try anything that sounds possible.
Before I had Covid in the Spring, I had multiple floaters in both eyes. When I got Covid, I got really sick, and I could not eat for almost 2 weeks. I survived on juice and liquid yogurt which I had trouble keeping down most of the time. After I recovered from Covid, I realized that my eyes had cleared up. After some research, I found that prolonged fasting period, can force the body to recover proteins lost in the body so they can be reused. There seems to be a connection between fasting, and removing floaters in the eyes.

But, what I am seeing doesn’t “float”, but remains stationary. Might be something else…
@@kentwilliams4152 You possibly have ters( i'm sorry this English word is hard to spell properly) I have these also which is a partial detachment of the retina. Those are still there. Floaters are disused proteins suspended around in the eye liquid. Your body can recycle those. The ters cannot.
I really wish they tested the Bromelaine supplement.
Thank you for this video! I have a patient with eye floaters and I guess this video came to my attention because Google spies on us! I love pineapple anyway and I know bromelaine has a lot of great healing properties
I started to exercise for at least 30 minutes a day since roughly a year ago. I now notice all my floaters have disappeared. Are there any links between exercise and floaters or am I just lucky?
Thank you Doc. I will try it also,I'm afraid I'm loosing my vision
Cut in any way you want, just eat the entire slice, including the central part 🤩🤩🙏🙏
That’s so weird. I have a lot of floaters in my eyes and a few weeks ago, I had a huge pineapple craving and been making sure to put it in my smoothie everyday since.
And?
I'm 54 years old and I've had a large stationary floater blocking the fovea in my left eye for about 5 years. After seeing this video last year I decided to try a bromelain supplement, as fresh pineapple gives me mouth ulcers. I took 2-500mg capsules a day for 120 days. At the end of my "scientific study" the bromelain had broken down the darkest parts of the floater and what little was left had settled below the fovea. The vision in my eye is almost back to normal. The only downside of taking the supplement is that the bromelain doesn't differentiate between eye floaters and collagen in the skin. I noticed that the skin on my forearms and hands looked thin and crepey after taking the supplement. It is because of this that I am on the fence about taking another round of the supplement to get rid of the rest of the floater. One thing to note is that processed pineapple (juice and canned slices) are pasteurized and the heat treatment of the product denatures the bromelain, so you will need to use fresh pineapple, or a supplement to get any benefits from this treatment. As always, YMMV.
What brand of bromelain supplement did you take?
@@pedro-nm7os I used Best Naturals bromelain supplement, 500 mg tablets, 120-count bottle.
I noticed my floaters lessened with adequate water intake i.e hydration
My friend gained positive results from this eye floaters remedy EyeFloatersCure45.blogspot.in
I am now recommending it to clients who complain that they keep viewing lines and dots in their vision, and they all keep stating success with no negative effects in any way. Just thought I`d provide this a thumbs up!?
Is what my doc said too... “Drink more water”.
i swear TO GOD THEY ARE GONE!!! You need Tumeric with Black Pepper in it. They also include in the same pill Tumeric, Boswella, Sage, Lemon Balm, Thyme and Piperine - pepper, all in one pill. Took 6 months for them to go away. I get it online from INFOWARS.COM and its called BODEASE. . $20 for 2 month supply-very good price for a stacked dose. Some of their stuff is a little high price, dont bother with the silver, but this stuff is FANTASTIC. Another GREAT thing is COCONUT OIL-non organic, get it anywhere . $20 for a gallon and i got rid of cancerous sores. 1/2 teaspoonful daily and its GREAT on popcorn.
@@fladave99 May i contact to you? twitter, Insta....I wondered how you got it
@@TuNguyen-tw8ye Sorry, I have no idea of social media. But you can reply to me on YT
Yay!! I love pineapple!! I'm sure we'll be hearing more and more about how foods can cure us of so many ills! I'm a big believer!!
I know my health changed incredibly when I turned plant based 3 years ago.
Elaine Petrakis Midnight Crafter yes ma’am, so am I. Now I am a believer. Almost five years ago I wasn’t.
Two months later, the flies in your eyes disappeared?
Eliane Petrakis . Please Update Did You See Any Improvements ? TwT i really need a cure
Thank you for the great info, going to try this out. From my own experience, I started adding Nutrex spirulina (3g daily) to my smoothies and have noticed my floaters improved within only a day or two. I'm not sure if spirulina is supposed to help with floaters or not, but it was a welcome "side effect."
Thanks for sharing. Interesting. I wonder if you keep taking just the spirulina it will work for the floaters?
How is it now?
When I had eye surgery about 5 years ago I had to take Bromeliad tablets for six weeks which was taken to reduce bruising and aid in healing. This was surgery to remove white areas on eyelids and upper cheek and also cosmetic eyelid surgery
Did the study have a reference group, who had floaters but who did not get pineapple, to see how many of them still had floaters after 90 days?
Eye Health QOTD 💥: Have your eye floaters ever improved? Do you think it was due to your diet?
I’ve had them since I was a kid. I’m 39 now. Still have them. They don’t bother me.
I am being told that the Journal of American Science is basically a fraud and the article is not substantiated professionally. Also, that a fruit company supported the study. I hope I am wrong, but please let me know if I am. I posted your video on an Eye Floaters support forum and was immediately shut down saying there is zero validity to it.
No I ended up with 2 vitrectomy operations, I ask if I could do any about them with no reply 🙂
I had PVD in both eyes at the same time and my situation was dramatic. They were like falling all over the place for a couple months. I quit driving it was so bad. I stopped working full time and went to part time. It bout drove me nuts. I seem to have hundreds when this started. Some as long as two inches and dark. Now 4.5 months later it's much improved. Many are gone and all are lighter. I'm hoping it will get better. Can you take a Bromaine supplement instead?
@@Ornelas11B 👍
I've been trying this out for about 2 months with occasional pineapple eating and it seems to have lessened the amount of floaters I have/make them less noticeable. However they're still definetly there
really?
I have suffering 1 month floater both eye
