Digestive Enzymes
Guides and comparisons How to read a supplement label in the EU
Digestive enzyme supplements as capsules, chewable lozenges and tablets, including lactase, papain, enzyme blends and betaine products. Bottles hold 60 to 360 capsules, the chewable lozenges come in packs of 180 or 360, and duo packs that pair a probiotic with an enzyme come as 30 packs of two capsules. Enzyme amounts are stated in milligrams or in activity units, which differ from one enzyme to the next, so compare the units of each enzyme per serving and count the capsules or lozenges in a serving. Products that are only probiotics or only fibre have their own categories.

Frequently asked questions
How are digestive enzyme amounts measured on a label?
Enzymes are usually declared in activity units, and each enzyme has its own unit; some labels also give the weight of the enzyme ingredient in milligrams. Units of one enzyme cannot be compared with units of another, so compare lactase with lactase and papain with papain, per serving and in the same unit. The label lists every enzyme on a separate line.
What is the difference between betaine HCl and TMG?
Both are forms of betaine. Betaine HCl is betaine combined with hydrochloric acid as a salt, and it is often sold with pepsin. TMG (trimethylglycine) is the name used for betaine itself, without the acid. They are different ingredients, so read the title and the ingredient list to see which one a product contains, and compare milligrams of the same form.
How do I compare a single-enzyme product with a blend?
A single-enzyme product such as lactase or papain has one enzyme line on the label, so compare its units per capsule or lozenge. A blend lists each enzyme on its own line, so match the lines enzyme by enzyme. Then check how many capsules, lozenges or packs make up one serving.
