Enzymedica VeggieGest, Digestive Enzymes for Vegan, Vegetarian and Raw Diets, Prevents Gas and Bloating, 60 Count

I combine this enzyme with betaine HCL with pepsin by nature life and it has been the biggest game changer in my digestion. It contains more Alpha-Galactosidase than any other enzyme brand I’ve found (most don’t even have that enzyme) which is why I bought it - it specifically helps the body break down plant fibers. Boy does it help! I can eat radishes and arugula and celery again! (I have not been brave enough to try broccoli or things in that line yet haha) but that is next.I also use Digest gold from this brand if I’m eating a big dense meal. Sometimes I take both together if the meal warrants it.Let me say that for years my digestions has been getting worse and worse and I didn’t understand why. Recently I was diagnosed with hEDS and prior to that I already knew I had low stomach acid, between these two issues I couldn’t eat much of anything without getting sick. The betaine hcl may not be the answer for everyone as it’s only for those who have low stomach acid but you can google it and there are ways you can test yourself at home to see or you can seek out a doctor. I just tested it all at home and again my life and digestion has gotten so much better.The important part for this review is it was not just the betaine as that did help but I was still having issues… it wasn’t until I discovered this brand of enzymes and used them with it that I saw the results I had truly been looking for. They are expensive but if I’ve learned anything in my health journey it is this…1- you cannot trust all supplements on Amazon.2- the cheaper ones often fall short (I have tried so many cheaper digestive enzymes before that didn’t work nearly as well)3- It’s worth it to at least try the more expensive stuff once rather than continuing to spend money trying to find a cheaper one that works.Hope this helps others and best of luck in your healing journey!

I eat a mostly plant-based diet and cook the majority of my food, so I’m generally able to avoid the vegetables that I thought I’d never be able to feel normal after eating anything with even a touch of onion or garlic; these keep me from getting the dreaded “bubble-gut” and associated pain after eating. Highly recommend if you have GI issues from dysautonomia or other autoimmune issues - these truly make a difference. Now, I’m not saying I can bite into a raw onion like an apple after I take one. But, I’m no longer stuck in child’s pose with a hard, distended gut if I have, say, scallions in my miso soup. And that’s definitely a win.

I have numerous digestive issues, but the punch line is that I have to carefully manage my diet and avoid things that are too hard for me to digest. With the Gastro I am able to eat a wider range of things that would normally cause me significant discomfort, including rice and greater quantities of fresh vegetables. It is worth trying for anyone with chronic or temporary problems digesting vegetation and grains. It does not help with proteins, so you would have to get something else for that.

This brand is the only one where I can feel the difference. I eat a lot of cruciferous but also like this formula for meat and dairy. I feel less full after eating. I take one cap if I eat one serving of cruciferous, two caps if I add a scoop of beans or more broccoli or meat. My digestion gets sluggish from dairy or whey protein beyond small amounts. I would say taking one cap three times a day has helped to keep things moving.

This is totally useless! No effect! I got had by this buy! Please don't buy this!

I have tried many enzyme supplements and this one reduces my bloating the most. I take one before my first bite of fruits and veggies and another in the middle of the meal if 15 minutes pass from my first pill and I’m still eating. This has been a huge game changer for my IBS allowing me to eat some fruits and veggies again without flaring.

I have had great success with now being able to digest vegetables.

The other products that claim to help with bloating, distended stomach and pain, and gas do not work for me. This is the only product that, if I take it with my first bite of (usually lunch), comes closest to ensuring that i will be able to continue working, breathing, and standing like a normal human being. **Note that it does not work as well for my husband, but if Beano and Gas-X do not work for you, I would definitely recommend trying this!
