Description
Looking for an enzyme-only digestive aid?
Digest Aid is a great option that relies on a broad spectrum of digestive enzymes to support optimal digestion of protein, fats, carbs and other sugars and starches found in food. Poor digestion of food may result in poor absorption of nutrients and may foster imbalances within the gut microbiome as the microbes there get access to your partially undigested food.
Also, Digest Aid is great for those who are sensitive to betaine HCl and bile (since it doesn’t contain either). It is also a vegetarian supplement.
Digest Aid is a comprehensive formula that includes the following broad range of enzymes (listed below with their functions) at clinically significant levels:**
- Amylase: breaks down carbohydrates.
- Lipase: breaks down fats.
- Proteases (such as Trypsin and Pepsin): breaks down proteins.
- Cellulase: breaks down fiber.
- Invertase: breaks down sucrose.
- Alpha-galactosidase: breaks down carbohydrates in legumes.
- Pectinase: breaks down pectin found in fruits.
- Hemicellulase: breaks down plant fibers.
- Lactase: breaks down lactose
- Bromelain is a mixture of proteolytic (digests proteins) enzymes from the pineapple used to support healthy inflammatory
responses. - Papain is a mixture of proteolytic enzymes from the papaya plant most commonly used for digestive support.
- Beta-glucanase: breaks down beta-glucan, a special type of fiber found in yeast, grains and mushrooms
Note that this product contains Bromelain (from pineapple) and Papain (from papaya) enzymes in case you are sensitive or allergic to those particular fruits.
SUGGESTED USE: Take 1 cap 5 minutes before every meal.
Unfortunately, these capsules cannot be opened due to the nature of the enzymes inside of them.

Digest Aid has been overall very helpful for alleviating digestive discomfort. I have noticed less stomach aches and bloating since starting to take this before meals. Definitely would recommend it!
Taking Digest Aid has helped me be able to absorb more nutrients from my food than when I wasn’t taking any digestive enzymes due to my low stomach acid. I was vegan for nearly four years which I think greatly reduced the quality and acidity of my stomach acid among other things. I have not had any reactions to this supplement whatsoever. Highly recommend it if you feel like you’re not absorbing nutrients as much as you should!
I have been extremely pleased with P2 Detox Balance, Digest Aid + One Daily Multi. I started using these consistently about six weeks ago for red, irritated, and flakey skin on my face. The irritation is almost non-existent and the redness/flakes are much improved. Additionally, my digestion has noticeably improved. I definitely trust these products!
