This is our review for Enzymedica Digest, a dietary supplement designed to provide relief to those suffering with digestive issues such as constipation, diarrhea and Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). It provides the body with digestive enzymes that are usually lost when cooking the food. The manufacturer claims that enzymes contained in Digest are able break down fats, carbohydrates, protein and fiber.

Ingredients

  • Protease Thera-blend
  • Amylase Thera-blend
  • Lipase Thera-blend
  • Lactase
  • Cellulase Thera-blend
  • Hemicellulase
  • Glucoamylase
  • Invertase
  • Xylanase
  • Pactinase (w/Phytase)
  • Alpha Galactosidase
  • Maltase

Other ingredients: Vegetarian Capsule (water and cellulose).

Lactase helps break down lactose in whole milk and other dairy products. Protease helps with the digestion of different types of protein. Amylase helps with the digestion of carbohydrates. Invertase helps to divide sugar into sucrose and fructose. These and other ingredients on the list work together in improving the digestive health. However we have noticed that most of the ingredients are blended. This could lower the effectiveness of the ingredient and the product as a whole. Non-blended ingredients are known to be more effective than blended ingredients.

We have also noticed that there are many other ingredients that could have been added to this product to make it more effective. Enzymes like Reservatol, Catalase and Bromelain also contribute hugely in improving digestive health.

Dosage

The recommended dosage is one capsule with each meal. More may be taken as needed. We are concerned about this because some individuals might take more than needed because they have frequent meals. This also indicates that there is no set dosage limit.

Possible Side Effects

Difficulty in breathing, swollen tongue, throat, face and lips, rashes, blistered and swollen skin, and itching. This is not a complete list of possible side effects. You are advised to see your doctor is you experience any of these.

Price

Digest is available online, from the manufacturer’s website. It can be purchased for $11.99 per bottle of 30 capsules, for one-time purchase, and $9.59 for subscription purchase. A bottle with 90 capsules is sold for $32.99 for one-time purchase and $26.39 for subscription purchase. A bottle with 180 capsules is sold for $52.99 per bottle for one-time purchase, and $42.39 for subscription purchase. Digest is also available from online third-party retailers.

Guarantee

The manufacturer offers a 30-day money back guarantee. If you are unsatisfied with the product for any reason, you can return it to the retailer that you bought it from, within the guarantee period for a full refund. We believe that 30 days is too short for one to see the effectiveness of the product.

Our Enzymedica Digest Review– Conclusion

Enzymedica Digest is a viable product that could possibly have an effect in improving your digestive health. It contains the enzymes that the body needs to prevent issues like diarrhea, constipation and irritable bowel syndrome. We believe that Digest could have been more effective if the included enzymes were not blended, and if more enzymes that are known to be effective for digestive health were included.  We are also concerned that there is no dosage limit. Taking more capsules than the body needs might have a negative effect on the digestive health and on the overall health. In addition to that, the manufacturer’s guarantee is too short to determine the effectiveness of the product. With all this in mind and the possible side effects that you might experience, we recommend that you look for another product that will provide you with what you need as a customer.
