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?

      Disregarded

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      Paying for my own Celiac screening at WalkInLab so a positive result doesn’t become part of my medical history

      By Oldturdle · Posted

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      Does Dailymed.nlm.nih.gov site have filters for gluten?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/

      A lot to think about here. Does anyone have any recommendations for third party laboratories that will do full panel celiac screens private pay in the U.S.?
