GlutenEase, 60 CT

I keep this as a staple product because I don't have the enzymes to digest grains. Thus I've developed a grain allergy. I still love bread, cookies, and pasta but only occasionally. I take it also with Lypo for fats. When my stomach backs up after eating grain I know it is time for one of these. I don't do capsules anymore since I like to have burned a hole in my stomach a couple of times for trying to get the food to move on. So I empty the capsule into a small mug of warm water and down the hatch. In a few hours I'm much better. I've tried many other products but had issues due to the fact that enzymes are made from fungus that I'm allergic to as well. In fact the more probiotics I consume the sicker I get. I'm much more tolerant of this brand of enzymes. They have worked well for me for years.

My supplement for daily use. Always have two bottles… just in case.

Works like magic to keep your tummy bloat free!

UPDATE... I got a bad bottle of this - lots of rashes and stomach pain/bloating. Thought my reactions were getting worse or that GlutenEase was no longer effective, but had already ordered another bottle. I tried the new bottle on vacation and it works great - no rashes or stomach pain. I will continue to use, but may have to find another place to order it from if I get another bad one. Previous Post... I have been gluten intolerant for several years. I found this product in a health store a couple of weeks before I was going to travel to my home town and decided to give it a try since I was already nervous about finding foods I could eat on vacation. I decided to wait to try it out on my favorite bakery, then my favorite sub/pizza shop since it would be worth the 2 days of terrible stomach pain if it didn't work. Well, it worked - no stomach pain, bloating, etc. I ended up using it quite frequently for the entire trip and felt great. However, after about a week from the start of the trip, I had really bad pain in my joints - I had forgotten how bad my joint pain was before I gave up gluten. Thinking it may have been a fluke, I used GlutenEase frequently again and had the same increase in joint pain, plus I've started breaking out in a rash on my chest. So now I still use GlutenEase, but sparingly (maybe a couple of times per week) and have found that the joint pain and rash are not an issue. Some others have said that it even helps aleviate symptoms after accidental ingestion. I agree it helps, but only slightly for me (still have stomach pain, not usually as sharp, and it usually only lasts for 1 day instead of 2 days). I have found that the product is most effective if I take it at least 5 min. before I have gluten. Also, I will take a second capsule if I have something else with gluten more than an hour after I've taken the first one. In summary, it is a good product that really helps for eating out or on vacation. It works for abdominal issues, but not joint pain so use sparingly. Besides, if you are having a reaction to something you should probably listen to your body and avoid it if at all possible. Definitely buy this on Amazon because it is much cheaper here than health stores.

This product allows me to have regular bread & pasta. I don't over-do it though. I am Gluten intolerant NOT celiac. Too much is not good, there are minor side effects - very tolerable.

I am 42 years old and about 3 years ago was diagnosed with Celiac disease. After almost 40 years of being accustomed to eating pretty much whatever I wanted, some of those habits can be hard to break. In particular bread and other gluten rich items. I dont take these everyday, but I do take them if I feel I've overdone it on my gluten intake. I can say there is a noticeable difference between taking and not taking. If you have a gluten sensitivity or mild Celiac then these may help. I can't speak to results with a higher sensitivity or more serious Celiac.

I was able to eat crab rangoons with no ill effects! I was missing those so much from my gluten free diet! I am gluten intolerant and have been following a strictly gluten free diet since 2009. With stomach troubles for over 12 years, a GF diet was the only thing that helped me. I have no celiac markers and took all the celiac tests which came back negative, but eating even miniscule amounts of gluten would make me very sick for hours. From studying nutrition and having a good understanding of the digestive system, I thought the theory of a gluten enzyme to break down the gluten molecule could work, however I was skeptical. After reading a review that someone in my situation was able to take 2 capsules and eat a 6" subway sandwich with no emergencies, I thought it couldn't hurt to try it myself and figured crab rangoons would be worth it even if I did get sick. But I didn't get sick! I plan to stick to my GF diet and keep these pills around for restaurant dining, get-togethers with friends and family, and the occasional crab rangoon craving ; ). I also take supplements to heal the lining of my gut like BioGenesis Intestinal Repair Capsules, Metagest Digestive Support Formula, probiotics, and drinking aloe vera juice.

I have colitis (caused by a gluten sensitivity) and bought these hoping that they would allow me to eat gluten again. After reading reviews, I decided that I would try taking 4 pills with gluten, and then step the dosage up or down from there, depending on my reaction. The first thing I tried them with was a flat bread sub from Subway. I took 4 pills with the sandwich; it did not end well. Almost instantly my symptoms started to appear and I decided to avoid gluten for the rest of the week. The second thing I tried the pills with was pizza. I ordered a thin crust pizza from Domino's (this was before they offered gluten-free crust) and took 4 pills. To my surprise, I was able to eat an entire medium sized pizza without any gluten side effects! So then I decided to step it up and try the regular hand-tossed pizza crust. This time I took 6 pills and was able to eat the whole medium-sized pizza without my gluten side effects. Or at least that's what I thought. Taking the pills prevented my immediate side effects from showing up (headache, dizziness, feeling tired), but after an hour my stomach started to make really loud sounds, which kind of worried me, but I had no pain at that point. 30 minutes later, the pain kicked in, and it was real bad. Since I began taking this product, I have used it a bunch in different circumstances. It has definitely helped me when I've been eating out or on trips where it is difficult to find gluten-free foods. It seems to be different for every person, depending on their gluten sensitivity levels, so you will just have to figure out what works for you. In my case, I have learned to stick to eating gluten-free as much as possible, but when it's not possible, I will take some of these pills and eat the available items that contain the least amount of gluten. When I first started with this product, I was hoping it would allow me to enjoy my favorite gluten foods again. But alas, after testing it out, it seems that the pills only help me when ingesting smaller amounts of gluten.

Ottimo

Je suis un peu mitigée car j'ai l'impression que ses effets n'étaient pas les mêmes à chaque prise mais globalement je pense qu'il évite quelques désagréments avec la prise de gluten occasionnelle.

Awesome product

One of the best gluten digesting capaules...

Excellent product!
