Always consult your health practitioner if in doubt.
RiskMedium Risk
Overview
•Generally low-risk for healthy adults, but digestive enzymes can cause nausea, abdominal cramping, diarrhea, constipation, heartburn, or mouth/throat irritation in sensitive users.
•Contains wheat, making it unsuitable for people with wheat allergy and potentially unsuitable for strict gluten avoidance unless the finished product is verified gluten-free.
•Papain and bromelain are proteolytic plant enzymes; use caution with anticoagulant or antiplatelet drugs, bleeding disorders, or before surgery because of possible additive bleeding risk.
•People with pineapple, papaya, latex-fruit, or enzyme sensitivities may be more likely to react to bromelain or papain.
•Not ideal during pregnancy or breastfeeding unless a clinician approves; the label advises consulting a healthcare professional in these groups.
•This formula is not a substitute for prescription pancreatic enzyme replacement in pancreatic insufficiency, cystic fibrosis, or post-pancreatectomy care.
