Any Problems With Enzymedica Supplements?

Has anyone else had problems with this supplement? Could I be reacting because I'm just not waiting long enough for it to break down before I eat dairy, or could it be a reaction to the supplement itself?

I've had two lactose-type reactions both times I've used this stuff -- Lactaid works just fine for me.

I've been using Enzymedica's DIGEST GOLD, which seems to be helping me digest things better (based on the quality of my stool.) I don't think I've had any reaction to it, but I'm not positive (I'm pretty newly dx'd, and am still bloated and constipated). I don't eat dairy, though.

good luck.

I take digest gold. At first I thought it gave me a rash on my neck, but now I don't think that was the cause. I think the rash came first.

I stopped using it for a while, but now I'm back on it with no problems. I don't have a problem with lactose, so I don't know about that.

I would trust your body. If it is making you sick then stop using it and return it. My health food store will take supplements back even if they have been used.

I used the Tepnel home gluten test kit on Enzymatica Digest Gold and it recorded a strong positive (greater thatn 10%). I am trying to contact Enzymatica to see what they have to say.

Eroralaeta, did you hear back from Enzymedica regarding their enzymes and gluten content? Are these enzymes safe for celiacs? I started taking Enzymedica V-gest 4 days ago and it looks like I am getting some gluten somewhere. Could it be the enzymes?

      Understanding that normal is <15, I started off with 250+, then using the same lab it took two years to get to 11, the last test was 3. So, it jumped back up for some reason which is why I suspected gluten in my diet somewhere. I do not do dairy, eggs, oats, or soy. I am vegan and gluten free, and take numerous supplements with the help of this forum.

      I just want to post this new study here--it seems that for those who don't recover on a gluten-free diet may be in this group: https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/scitranslmed.adp6812

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      It does seem like brushing would be needed, and like anything else, a little daily exposure can lead to serious issues for celiacs.
