Great taste, great value, great item!
We discovered papaya enzyme when my brother, who has had GI problems since birth, was in elementary school. A friend of the family suggested it. It works better for general heartburn and discomfort than anything I've ever tried. I've had papaya tablets that taste horrible. These are not those tablets. These taste pretty good, tho' they do require quite a bit of chewing to not have sharp pieces going down. Papaya is not a miracle worker. It's not going to completely heal your GERD, but it's definitely a great alternative to Pepto Bismol or Tums.

Great taste and action
Very good tasting and really helps with the digestion especially if you are taking any weight loss medications that slow the movement of food from your stomach. This really helps eliminate gas and the bloating feeling you get when taking these kinds of medications.

A MUST-HAVE STAPLE
I never run out of Papaya Enzyme. I always have a bottle of it in the fridge. In my opinion, it is the best thing for an upset stomach and heartburn. I first tried Papaya Enzyme over 32-years ago when I was pregnant with my son and experiencing heartburn, and I have used it for that ever since. For bug bites (including mosquito,) bee stings, and blackberry bush/rose bush thorn pricks, I crushed some tablets, add a touch of warm water to create a paste, and apply it to the affected area to relieve the itch and pain. It is a great meat tenderizer, too !! I throw a few in with meat I am marinading...yes, it is true !! I can't recall where I first heard about it as a tenderizer, but it works. I've been pleased with this brand. They taste great and are a very good value.

Helps ease gas and bloat
This helps my digestion. It helps to stop gas and bloat after I’ve eaten something heavy. Yeah I know it would be best if I didn’t eat something heavy. But it helps ease pain and discomfort and get your body to process your food quicker. Or at least it does for me . I just wish it had a little bit less sugar.

Excellent quality
I use these for indigestion and to coat my stomach whenever discomfort arises or before eating food that normally trigger abdominal distress, particularly foods I know I shouldn't be eating in the first place. I used to take TUMS, Rolaids, Prilosec and other OTC antacids for years, without knowing the long-term consequences or the damage they cause to your gut flora. Papaya Enzymes have made a very big difference. While they take a little longer to work, I have found them to be just as effective. For severe cases, I'll eat a small piece of ginger along with them and that usually does the trick for me or anyone else I have recommended them to. The Papaya tree yield quite a bit of healing properties that aid and cure a multitude of ailments (fruit, leaves and seeds). Like any other natural remedy, it takes time to really see the impact or it effects. Do your own research regarding Papaya and be sure that you check with your doctor or pharmacist before using the enzymes as they can interfere with certain medications as well as pregnancies since it has been traditionally used as a Prophylaxis in some countries. Do yourself a favor and get this brand, stay away from those that have food colors and additional added sugars. Note: these are slight chalky in comparison to another brand that I have used but it's not off putting and clears up rapidly as they dissolve. So far this and one other comparable brand have been the best that I have found out there (I suspect they are both packaged by the same source). Stay away from those sold in Wal-Mart unless it is a last resort to find relief.

Gentle, effective, and tasty—our whole family uses them!
My whole family—even the kids—love these papaya enzymes! They’ve been a great help with mild digestion issues or occasional upset stomach, and they work surprisingly fast—usually within 15 minutes. I especially appreciate that they have a pleasant, naturally sweet flavor, no chalky texture, and no aftertaste. They’re easy to chew, which makes them perfect for both adults and kids. We keep them on hand at home and always take them when we travel. They’ve been a reliable go-to after heavier meals or when our diets are a bit off. The fact that everyone in the family actually likes taking them makes it even better. ✅ Pros: • Gentle and effective for mild digestion issues • Kid-approved sweet flavor • Easy to chew—no chalky texture • Works quickly (about 15 minutes) • Great for home or travel ⚠️ Cons: • You might go through them quickly if the whole family uses them regularly Highly recommend these for anyone looking for a gentle, family-friendly digestive aid that actually works and tastes good!

Fast relief for indigestion and bloating
This product is the only product I found that actually works for indigestion. A very natural product and much better for you than products with so many additives. I have bought one for my daughter in law also. It works instantly and is also great for bloating.

We have been taking this for probably 5+ years. It helps with my horrible stomach aches every time. Even my not so horrible ones.

The established reviews are congratulatory, however, my gums are old and sensitive. Chewing these acidic tablets caused a inflammatory response, despite using a milk drink chase. Ouch, sore mouth for a fortnight.
