Waste of money
Not only will they be inactivated by the acid pH of your stomach (although it may be temporary as the pH will change again in subsequent parts of your digestive tract), an enzyme in your stomach, pepsin, will start to chop apart protein. Most enzymes, including digestive enzymes, are made out of proteins. So in essence, the digestive enzymes you just consumed will be chopped up before they go the next part of the digestive tract.
You also already make most of the digestive enzymes and secrete these in particular locations (saliva contains amylase, stomach has pepsin, pancreas secretes many other enzymes such as lipase, proteases, etc. You already make these substances.
One more thing - think of a digestive enzyme like a pair of scissors. It does the same thing over and over and over again. Can't imagine why you would want to add 'extras'.

Tablet not as easy to swallow
I use my mortar and pestal to grind the tablet and put in morning smoothy. Also sprinkle on organic burgers for my dog. Capsuls are more convenient.

It Works
I tried this product in the past and ran out. I could tell the difference when I wasn't taking it.

Good stuff.
My Dr. said take digestive enzymes. I faxed him three choices to see which he recommended using ONLY the ingredient label of three different brands. (No brand names, no prices in the fax). He picked Swanson's! I was so happy because they were the best choice for me and most affordable.
Keep it up Swanson's!

IT"S NOT GLUTEN FREE
For those of you who are avoiding gluten, this
is not gluten free. The ingredient barley malt
contains gluten. I like Swanson's products a lot,
but I do wish that they would remove the gluten from this. That way, a lot of people could use
it who can't at this time.

SWANSON Digestive Enzymes
WOW!! I was pleasantly surprised that I really like the way these work! To be honest, I really wasn't expecting them to be very good because they are a tablet and their cost was so low compared to other digestive enzymes, BUT my husband & I had been taking Source Naturals Daily Essential Enzymes caps for quite a number of months and weren't getting as good of results as I thought we should,so I decided to try these. With the very first use, we both thought we experienced a noticeable improvement! My husband only has to take 1 at each of lunch & dinner, and I take 1-2 at lunch and 2-3 at dinner, depending on how heavy the meals are. (None at breakfast, because I always have a whey shake.) My digestion is much weaker than my husband's, so I have to take more enzymes, plus HCL in addition. I'm sure that there are some formulations out there that are stronger and work even better, but for the low cost and good formulation of these, this product will work just fine!

It really works!
I will not ever go a day without these wonderful digestive enzymes! They really work in breaking down the foods. It worked the very first day I used them! I know my system loves it. I even told a friend about it. They tried it for a week and wanted the website address so they could put in their own order.

If it works why change . . . . .
So I have been taking Swanson Digestive Enzymes for at least the last year. I started taking 2 per meal and decided to try another brand/dosage . . . . well that was a bad idea.
Seems my body works better using the Swanson product - great stuff, won't change again.
I am 47 and eating healthier requires more digestive enzymes . . . .

I have been using these for several years and hiughly recommend them. Put it this way, if I run out before I order more, I have immediate trouble using the bathroom. I highly encourage you to try them.

A great supplement
This has helped my entire digestive system. I think human beings are poor digesters and this has helped me get the most out of what I eat. I just take one with each meal and I don't have to worry about it. High quality at a great price!

These have made a wonderful difference in my digestive process - as we age, this seems like the key to helping with digestion, as our own enzymes are not as plentiful.

Great digestive aid!
I recently became acquainted with this product during a detox program. On my raw journey, I was concerned about eating SAD on my vacation...but digestive enzymes were a great help! No tummy problems!

I Take These on the Advice of Dr.
My Dr told me these would be great to take along with my other Swanson products, at meal time as we get older we lose some ot the enzymes we need to digest our food.

Makes a difference with the fast foods we have been subject to. No longer worry about the effects of eating out, not knowing the type of foods ingredients. Does wonders for comfort and digestion.

Does not work
I have used other products in the past that gave me a bowel movement once or twice daily. This product did not work at all. Would not recommend to anyone.

Key to wellbeing
For me, good digestion is Key to well being and Digestive Enzymes make me feel great. I cannot do without them. I often run out of other supplements because I am too lazy to re-order, but when I am low on digestive enzymes it gives me the incentive to re-order.
