This plant-based digestive enzyme supplement helps you enjoy every holiday meal without having to worry about tummy issues.

What Are Digestive Enzymes and What Do They Do?

Digestive enzymes are special proteins that help your body turn food into nutrients. Each type of enzyme has a different job:

  • Some work on fats
  • Some work on proteins
  • Others work on carbohydrates and fiber.

According to John’s Hopkins, “Some people don’t have enough digestive enzymes, or their bodies don’t release the enzymes as they should. This means they can’t break down certain foods and absorb nutrients.” If your body doesn’t make enough enzymes or you eat larger meals than usual, your digestion can slow down. 

This can lead to bloating, gas, or heaviness after eating. Taking a supplement like Enzymedica Digest Gold helps your body digest food more efficiently, making it easier to enjoy big holiday meals without discomfort.

About Enzymedica Digest Gold

Digest Gold is a high-potency digestive enzyme blend made from plants. It helps your body break down proteins, fats, carbohydrates, fiber, and lactose. Enzymedica’s Thera-blend® technology allows these enzymes to stay active through your entire digestive system, from your stomach to your intestines.

It is 100% vegan, non-GMO, and free of gluten, dairy, and soy. It also contains ATPro®, a blend of nutrients that supports your body’s natural energy production during digestion.

Ingredients in Digest Gold

Each capsule contains a mix of plant-based enzymes in the proprietary Digest Gold® Enzyme Blend that work together to support complete digestion:

  • Amylase – Breaks down starches like bread, potatoes, and pasta.
  • Glucoamylase – Works with amylase to further break down complex carbohydrates into simple sugars (like glucose) for energy.
  • Invertase – Helps digest sucrose (table sugar) into glucose and fructose, making sweets easier to process.
  • Lipase – Helps digest fats and oils from foods such as butter, cheese, and sauces.
  • Protease – Breaks down proteins from foods like meat, eggs, and beans.
  • Cellulase – Helps your body digest fiber in fruits, vegetables, and grains.
  • Xylanase – Assists in breaking down plant fibers found in whole grains and vegetables.
  • Hemicellulase – Helps digest hemicellulose, another form of plant fiber that can cause bloating if not broken down properly.
  • Lactase – Breaks down lactose, which is the sugar found in milk and dairy products.
  • Maltase – Converts maltose, a sugar from grains, into glucose for energy.
  • Alpha-Galactosidase – Helps digest complex carbohydrates in beans and vegetables that often cause gas and bloating.

These enzymes work together to help your body break down a variety of foods, reduce digestive discomfort, and support healthy nutrient absorption.

Other ingredients include the 100% vegetarian capsule and ATPro®, which is made up of ATP, Magnesium Citrate, Phytase, and CoQ10.
