Description
Digestive enzymes are essential to the body's absorption and full use of food. The capacity of the body to make enzymes diminishes with age, and therefore the efficiency of digestion declines. NOW Papaya Enzyme Lozenges have a refreshing taste and support digestion when taken after meals. Our tablets are made from whole, unripe, spraydried Papaya powder, and contain 40 mg of Papaya per Lozenge. In addition, Protease, Lipase and Cellulase have been included for a full spectrum of enzymatic activity.

Burned charred tasting papaya enzyme its bad!

This formula has changed I think it may be toxic now, and it’s very disappointing. It has a burnt taste that gets so intense that it fills your mouth and nose with a smoky dirty taste and scent. I hope the toxicity doesn’t make people seriously ill? This has been our entire families, go-to digestive enzyme formulation for a decade. We have tried three different bottles over a years time hoping it was an off batch. Now none of us can stomach the burned charred taste. It’s really bad!

Although some consumers may feel the odor or taste of the product does not meet their personal preference, the results of all raw material testing have been found to meet specifications for purity, potency, and safety.

I have been buying these enzymes for years as they help my digestion immensely and immediately stop bloating etc. However, this last batch I bought was slightly rancid (as another reviewer said 'stale') but definitely tasted very off. This batch needs to be looked at by Now Company. I will have them independently tested. Lot # 3303083 15:20 EXR: 02/25 82970

I recently purchased this and the taste was awful !

Sorry to hear that the taste is not favorable for you. We do also carry ChewyZymes, which is a different chewable enzyme, as well as Plant Enzymes Veg Capsules, which should alleviate the need to taste all together. Thank you for leaving a review!

This was my 3rd order from f these enzymes. Unfortunately, the taste is off and they are stale. I have ordered another brand. They taste as though they are old. Wish I could get another bottle, but I’m hesitant due to the taste.

I plan to always have these on hand. One to two with meals has eliminated my heartburn and indigestion, and they have a pleasant taste.
I didn't read the ad correctly.

I didn't realize there were other ingredients besides Papaya. I got these for my rabbits and I don't know if they can have chlorophyll, so I won't use them. I should have paid better attention. Is my fault, not the company's.
Swanson; The source for reliable products.

The Papaya Enzymes products on this order were for a friend and received by her. She was pleased that the product relieved her digestion distress problem immediately and said they're on her list of supplements for the future, for sure. I have used Papaya Enzyme for years so I have no doubt of this most comforting result. At this time I do not need to order more for myself, but you're on my list of favorite resources. Thank you for maintaining quality. Very satisfied customer.......and friend.......

I find this product very helpful in aiding my digestion. So glad to find a papaya supplement that is non-GMO. It is very good tasting too.

When I first started taking Papaya Enzymes I was starting a decline in general health. After taking it for a short while, I noticed improvement in overall strength and in the condition of my skin and hair. My impression is that it improves digestion and absorption of nutrients needed for good health. I take it at least once daily after a meal or after taking my supplements.
