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.

For the first time, I ordered papaya enzymes and I’m glad I did! Previously, I used pharmacy mezym but switched to iHerb. The large container will last ages, as I share it with my family. The chewable tablets taste good (a bit sweet), and when I had bloating after trying an unusual dish, taking 3 tablets eliminated the discomfort. Therefore, I highly recommend them.

I've been using these pills for a month and they've significantly reduced bloating and heaviness after meals. I've lost 2 kg without changing my diet or exercise. I take 1-3 tablets after meals, depending on how heavy the meal was. They're tasty, chewable, and effective against heartburn. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

Miracle for bloating
5 people found this helpful
Thrilled! This product has been a life changer! I’m absolutely delighted. I suffer from IBS and persistent bloating and gas, and this product has been nothing short of a miracle for me. After the very first dose, I noticed my abdominal bloating and gassiness decrease! Now I chew a few tablets before every meal. I’ve tried other OTC products like Tums and Beano, and this has been the most effective by far! My bloating used to get so bad that my trousers would become uncomfortably tight. This product resolved that. I am so happy. Cannot recommend it enough if you suffer from the same symptoms. They taste good and are easy to chew.

Helps digestion
53 people found this helpful
I was advised by my trainer to get these pills. I eat a lot of protein, which often leaves me feeling bloated. I noticed a difference after my first day. They help with digestion after meals. It's recommended to take 3 after eating, but I manage with 2. The pills are chewable, with a bit of a chalky texture but otherwise fine, and taste good.
