*Edit September 2022 - ten years?!? Where has the time gone?!?!! I came across this old review and had completely forgotten about how his behavior had gotten WORSE before it got better! I just wanted to add that after all this time, we are still using them! He takes one a day, unless he’s on antibiotics and then he takes one in the AM and one in the PM to help keep him square. We’ve tried other formulas a couple of times, but always came back to this. *Edit June 2014 We tried this product again along with a daily vitamin and Omega-3 pill starting in 2013 (a year ago) and WOW. I don't know why we didn't have any luck the first time around (maybe the first batch wasn't handled properly and was inactive?) But our son is now 12 and you can TELL when he hasn't taken one of these. When taken regularly he is more alert, it's easier for him to interact with people, he's more PLEASANT (preteen!) but let me say that the first 5 weeks on the product made me question why we were trying it again. It was strange because although he was making great eye contact and seemed to understand us easier he was also more of a handful behaviorally, ANGRY more often than not and his stimming went WILD. Like I've read for others, I really questioned if I wasn't making it worse and wondered if this could be worth it! It has been. I'm shocked at the difference and so glad we decided to give it another go. *Original review below. We were so busy trying to analyze whether this product made any difference in our 9 year old with autism I think we were trying to convince ourselves that it was working. We tried this for 3 months and never really saw anything concrete. He has been off of the D.G.+ for several months now and I honestly don't see that it made a difference. We will stick to expanding our son's diet through books, movies and games and continue weaning him off of processed junk by finding "Real" healthy alternatives so that he can naturally receive the right mix of enzymes, vitamins, probiotics and minerals that are found in non-genetically altered, non-processed, natural, whole, organic foods.

I have had lots of stomach issues for the past 3 decades to where I can barely eat anything without suffering afterwards. I have been using some of this company's other products with amazing success. So when I stumbled on some reviews of this product saying that it helped others with irritable bowel, lactose intolerance, and gluten intolerance I decided to give this product a try. I'm so glad I did! Over the past 2.5 years, I only have dietary issues when I run out of this product!!! In fact, I've gone from a level of lactose intolerance so severe that without handfuls of lactose pills I could only eat one bite of ice cream or pizza or I would be spending the next 12 hours on the toilet in severe distress to not needing lactose pills at all when eating several slices of pizza AND a mug of ice cream in one meal! I am SO THANKFUL!

Since turning 40 I've suffered digestive distress. It didn't matter what I ate. Up until I was 40 I had the legendary "cast iron stomach." I ate hot sauce, spicy Indian food, chilies, Mexican food, tons of sweets, fast food, fried and raw onions, and drank alcohol; you name it and it was in my diet practically every day. After turning 40 it was like a switch had been flicked and literally everything led to intestinal issues no matter how benign and bland my food choices were. I tried probiotics alone; exercise; a bland diet; lactose-free and gluten-free eating; anti-infammatory drugs, supplements, and foods; lactose enzyme supplements; everything; and nothing helped. I even started a hydrotherapy colonic regimine. It was at the colonic that the provider mentioned that when we turn 40, sometimes our bodies stop producing as much of the digestive enzymes as it had in the past, and that my symptoms sounded very much like this could be my situation, so I decided to give digestive enzyme supplementation a try. I chose Enzymedica Digest Gold Plus Probiotics because of the excellent reviews, and after cross-checking its reputation on other sites, and I'm so glad I did I could cry. I've been taking it for 3 days now and every single abdominal symptom is gone. I've eaten greasy food, fried food, sweets, I've even had a little alcohol, and I'm prefectly fine. I feel like someone gave me my body back. In case it helps someone to determine dosage, I take 1 with small snacks and 2 with meals, and if my food includes dairy, I add an extra dairy-specific supplement, as well.

Use these regularly when I eat big meals they're great for my digestion I trust this brand

I have read numerous articles about digestive enzymes and their effect on overall health - so that is why I take one every day. But I always keep extras in my purse and when someone in the family gets an upset stomach, or has eaten too much, etc., we now take two of these instead of an antacid - and they work ten times better. At first, my husband was skeptical but is now a total believer. I shared some with a friend of mine who has IBS and she called me to say it literally changed her life and that everyone was telling her she had lost weight - but it just took care of all the bloating and water weight, and that she felt better than she ever had. She takes one or two before every meal. This product has therefore far exceeded my expectations - and since it has a probiotic in it, no more expensive probiotics to buy separately. So while it may be a tad pricey, I'm only buying one product now instead of two. I will never be without this product.
