A year or two ago, I noticed that my ears (mostly the left) would get sore during the night. I assume it was pressure on the cartilage. Some time after I discovered my sensitivity to proline, and reduced my intake of it, I noticed that I no longer developed sore ears. That's hardly a solid cause and effect, but it does seem like the most likely reason for the change, since proline is so important for cartilage development/maintenance. So, for anyone who suffers from cartilage pain and is desperate for relief, experimenting with a low-proline diet might be worth trying. However, some people might have cartilage problems that are made worse by reducing proline, so watch for that.

Hmmm...
To proline or not to proline...that is the question.
