Medical Uses for Adolph's Meat Tenderizer
By Cynthia Myers, eHow Contributor
Adolph's Meat Tenderizer was introduced in 1947 by two ex-GIs who
discovered the ability of the product to make rougher cheap cuts of
meat tender. The primary ingredient of Adolph's Meat Tenderizer is
papain, an enzyme that breaks down the tissues in meat, rendering them
more tender. This same enzyme has several medical uses, making
Adolph's Meat Tenderizer a handy addition to first-aid kits.
A phytobezoar is a ball of food, made up of vegetable fibers, skins,
and seeds, bound tightly together in an indigestible ball. Phytobezoar
can cause intestinal blockages and pain. In the February 2007 issue of
Pharmacotherapy magazine, David Cloney, MD, Erica Baker, PharmD and
William Baker, PharmD reported on the case of a man with a phytobezoar
who was treated with one teaspoon of Adolph's Meat Tenderizer
dissolved in water before each meal for seven days. At the end of the
seven days, the phytobezoar was gone, dissolved by the enzyme in the
meat tenderizer.
Insect Stings - Adolph's Meat Tenderizer neutralizes the venom of bee
and wasp stings. Make a paste of meat tenderizer and water, and apply
it to the sting. Or dissolve meat tenderizer in water and soak a
cotton ball in the solution. Apply to the sting for 20 minutes.
Jellyfish Stings - As with insects, the papain in Adolph's Meat
Tenderizer neutralizes the protein in jellyfish venom, relieving the
sting. Sprinkle the meat tenderizer directly on the wounded area,
covering it completely and leave it on the skin until the pain
subsides.
Intestinal Parasites - Papain taken before or after each meal has been
shown to be an effective treatment for intestinal parasites.
Third-world countries get papain from the skin of papayas, but meat
tenderizer offers a commercial form of papain.
Removing Thorns and Stickers - Sprinkle the affected area with meat
tenderizer and allow to sit for 10 minutes. Cover the area with
adhesive or duct tape, then pull off the tape. The stickers and thorns
should stick to the tape and come out.

Portuguese Man -O- War
Also called the bluebottle, can be found in the Gulf of Mexico. The
Man -O- War has a gas-filled chamber that is used like a sail to
propel it through the water. The Man -O- War is iridescent blue, with
long tentacles that can reach up 180 ft in length. The tentacles
contain a poison, which causes the stinging sensation.
Jelly Fish
Their bodies are hemispherical in shape, that are tough and thick,
white, milky, or bluish in color. Their tentacles are short and fused
into a tight bundle that contains a poison that will also cause a
stinging sensation.
Treatment
1. Immediately get away from the creature as they can sting many
times.
2. Protecting your hands with a towel scrape the tentacles and/or
slimy deposits from the skin.
3. Packing the area with wet sand, and then wash it away with water
(repeat as needed) will also help remove the remnants of the jellyfish
from your skin.
4. Make a paste from Unseasoned Meat Tenderizer and rubbing alcohol,
and then apply the mixture to the affected area. Unless affected area
is the genital area, then use water to make the paste instead of
rubbing alcohol.
The meat tenderizer applied to the affected area detoxifies the
effects of the venom. Once the pain has subsided, wash away the paste,
and treat area, as you would sunburn.

How to Treat a Bee Sting with Meat Tenderizer
By braniac
Instructions
1 Remove the stinger as soon as you can, if it's still attached to
you. When bees sting, their stinger detaches from their body and if
you've swatted at them, most likely you've driven the stinger into
your skin.
2 Make a paste of the meat tenderizer and water. Place about a
tablespoon of tenderizer in a shallow saucer or bowl, and mix with
just a drop of water. You'll want to keep the tenderizer in a paste
form, and not mix into a liquid. If it's not sticking together, add
just a drop more at a time.
3 Use a cotton swab to apply the paste to the bee sting. Use enough of
the paste to cover the sting and the surrounding area and to cover the
area with a generous layer.
4 Leave the tenderizer on the sting until it dries, anywhere between
10 and 20 minutes. After that, clean the area with a damp washcloth.
If the site is still red or inflamed, apply an ice pack for 20
minutes.

I've heard soy sauce has synergistic effect with meat tenderizer. A
little MSG goes a long way too.

I have a sneaky feeling two GIs in 1947 weren't going to name anything
Adolph's....

Here in the South, the old saying is, if you have an earache, get a
woman you dont know to piss in your ear. Then wrap a warm brick in a
wash rag and lay it on the ear.
Quite a feat Id say, getting a woman you dont know to piss in your
ear, lol
