I was recently released from the hospital after a severe gallbladder attack that left me nearly incapacitated for days. I chose not to have my gallbladder removed until I had time to research alternatives; however, I was terrified to actually eat anything since just about EVERYTHING causes a flare up.
I decided that if I didn’t want my gallbladder to get angry I should probably help my digestion out as much as possible, so I purchased the most expensive and best-rated digestive aid I could find. It worked pretty well but I was running low and my Amazon subscription wouldn’t arrive for about a week. I didn’t want to go without or to pay so much for my regular product without my 20% discount so I bought this.
It seemed extremely inexpensive and, with all the good reviews, I thought I should give it a try. One thing I should mention…it isn’t as inexpensive as it may appear at first because the serving size is two capsules; therefore, there are only 45 servings per 90ct bottle. It also has less enzymes and less of each enzyme than my normal aid. That being stated, it is by far much better than my other brand.
I was tentative to try it at first so I started off slow (with the food, not the supplement). I gradually increased the amount of food and the the variety as the days passed. I found that I could eat the same things as I was before but without any discomfort at all! No gas, bloating, nausea, migraines, etc…non of the “s***ty” symptoms of an attack. I still limit my fat intake and take Betaine when eating any meat but this is a gem!
I don’t know how or why it works better. It just goes to show you that labeling is not 100% proof of effectiveness.

So between ibs and bupropion, i admittedly have more gad than id like to admit. When i started eating chickpeas, this turned into a nightmare.
When i take these as i eat beans or chickpeas, i have no gas. Literally less gas than i had even before eating beans and chickpeas. The first day i took these, i had 2 chickpea burritos. I was prepared for gas, but hopeful there would be at least less. The next day, no gas. At all. This stuff is amazing.

I have IBS and these help with certain foods beans being the worst and onions. They are not 100% but soften the gas and bloating from many foods. Also they seem to work better if you use them daily.

meh. expensive when thinking that you need 6 a day – it comes to a 15 days supply. the ones i bought before were about $20 for 80 days. do the math. i couldn’t find the ones i bought before.
i guess they do what they should – i never noticed a miraculous difference, but over time my issues cleared, and I think digestive enzymes helped.

I have chronic relapsing pancreatitis and for years was suffering with its symptoms: NVD, nasty abdominal cramps and when I’d have a relapse, it put me down and out for ~24 hours. I was having to be very careful with what I ate and when – and even then, would still relapse every few weeks.
Then I decided that maybe my digestive system could use some help with breaking down food and that my pancreas wasn’t producing enough enzymes or the right mix of them. At first I tried Pancreatin type products, which are essentially ground up & dried pork pancreas. This did help, but I would stlll have symptoms on occasion.
Enter these wonderful little capsules: since I began using them [2 with every meal], I have been symptom free and able to pretty much eat whatever I want and whenever I want. I even make sure to keep a small packet of them in my pocket everywhere I go, in case I’m somewhere a meal might be happening.
These enzymes have greatly improved the quality of my life and hope they never stop making them or I’ll be lost. I like the fact they are vegetable sourced and very affordable, since I take them daily.

work good

I don’t like to be without these!! They’re very helpful for me for digestion and they’re gentle on the stomach. I have tried a few different ones and these are my favorite bc they don’t overstimulate my stomach, but rather quietly help me digest my food. They help me with bloating too. They don’t taste or smell weird either.

These digestive enzymes work well for me if I’ve eaten a lot of vegetables or a large meal. I usually take two with a larger dinner or none with a smaller dinner. These are my favorite general purpose digestive enzymes.

These digestive enzymes works when I feel burning or gastric issues in my gut I usually take them between the mean. there’s no taste but little bit smell. I feel they are effective and value for money. they are not appetite suppressant or pain relief do ask your doctor before taking them

A great digestive enzyme I have used for a long time.

it’s affordable, however i still had lactose issues when taking lactose milk daily. I switched to a different brand to help reduce my lactose issues they had more enzymes which i thought was improvement from this brand. However it does come with double the price. so if you are on budget this works great. if you looking for best then it depends why you are taking this and different brands will have different formula that might work better.
