Short-term relief in digestion
We examined how the papaya preparation Caricol® impacts digestive issues like bloating and constipation in a double-blind placebo-controlled study. Participants with chronic digestive complaints took either Caricol® or a placebo for 40 days.

While we noticed significant improvements in symptoms of constipation and bloating for some participants, these benefits didn’t continue after the washout phase. Unfortunately, the treatment showed no lasting effect on heartburn. Overall, Caricol® may help some digestive issues but the benefits seem temporary.

Panic attack relief
20 people found this helpful
My Life Saver. I’ve suffered from chronic gastritis with constant bloating, burping, fatigue, and nausea. This caused anxiety. After research, I tried these tablets. Within two days, I felt relief after being in hospital three times for gastric symptoms. Thankfully, I discovered these tablets; I take three after meals. They taste fruity and minty; they’re chewable! My symptoms are gone. Thank you for these; I've saved a fortune!

Excellent natural enzymes that help establish my digestive system, normalising my stool. I no longer experience bloating or heaviness after overeating since I began taking them.

It works! My husband has pancreas issues producing enzymes. Every meal, he suffers severe bloating. His medication was $800 a month, and probiotics stopped working. A friend suggested this, and it works immediately! He takes three after meals, and there's no bloating! Highly recommend for anyone with digestive issues.

A Power Warrior For Post Meal Digestive Support! When my digestive system causes discomfort from meals, I rely on Super Papaya Enzyme Plus. The chewable, pleasant-tasting tablets offer natural enzyme support and ease digestive distress effectively. Just three little tablets at the onset of gas or bloating and they perform wonders. We repeatedly purchase these and I’m impressed that their quality remains unchanged.
