NOW Foods Gluten Digest is a comprehensive digestive enzyme blend formulated specifically to promote the complete digestion of cereal grains and gluten proteins. Gastrointestinal discomfort caused by gluten can affect everyday wellness, making social dining and favorite meals a challenge.
This premium formula contains BioCore DPP IV (Dipeptidyl peptidase IV), a highly specialized enzyme with specific activity against the characteristic proline bonds found in cereal grain proteins. By targeting these resilient bonds, it helps your body break down complex food components more efficiently.
Additionally, the formula is fortified with proteases and amylases to address other protein and carbohydrate components that commonly co-occur in grains. Ideal for individuals seeking daily gastrointestinal support and improved digestive comfort, this formula helps manage accidental hidden gluten consumption.
This product is vegan, non-GMO, kosher, and soy-free, making it a clean addition to your wellness routine. Please note that this dietary supplement is designed for general digestive comfort and is not intended for individuals with Celiac Disease.

I was so glad to find a product that is dissolvable since my elementary-schooler only drinks from a bottle and doesn't take pills. You can take apart the capsules and dissolve them in warm water by shaking vigorously. You can also stir, but you have to squish lumps up against the side of the container to break them apart. Also works in cold water although I think warm is optimal.My child is on the autism spectrum, and I read that people with autism often struggle with inability to digest gluten and dairy, causing gut discomfort that exacerbates "symptoms" of autism (see book The Un-Prescription for Autism by Janet Lintala). My son is unable to communicate if he's uncomfortable (especially since digestive issues would be something he'd have dealt with for years and would assume was normal). We gave Gluten Digest a try, figuring it couldn't hurt (and introducing it slowly), and it has helped SO MUCH with his frustration. He is less moody and able to cope better. He's also sought out hugs a bit more, which is unusual (I don't know if that's related). It was worth a try for us, and we are so pleased to find it helping!
I have been treating myself for intestinal hyperpermeability, or "leaky gut", my holistic doctor diagnosed me with, and was concerned when I learned that many who have this problem have or develop gluten and/or dairly sensitivities or intolerances. "Leaky gut" is where the GI enterocytes, the cells that line the intestinal tract, are damaged to the point where they lose the "tight junctions" between them that usually prevent food particles, bacteria, and immune complexes (often created from exposure to gluten) from entering the systemic circulation. When this happens, it leads rapidly to systemic inflammation and sometimes even autoimmune diseases where the body's own immune system attacks the body's own tissue and organs. This is how I was diagnosed was my doctor discovered I had Hashimoto's autoimmune thyroiditis, a form of hypothyroidism, and the "leaky gut" is either a culprit of contributing to causing the disorder, or at the very least a result of any autoimmune disorder because of the abnormal inflammatory response. Sometimes immune complexes formed to gluten in the intestinal tract leak into the systemic circulation and directly cross-react with various tissues in the body, such as the thyroid gland, triggering the autoimmunity. The only way to tell if gluten sensitivity is a factor is to more basically closely monitor for dietary reactions to gluten, or to dairy, which is another culprit, or more gung-ho to do a major dietary overhaul on a trial basis by eating gluten and/or dairy free for a few months and then rechallenging the gut with those antigens again to see if there is a negative reaction..I wasn't aware of having any food intolerances, and had few to no GI signs except for some acid reflux, and so I started out with continuing to try to eat as healthy and mindfully as possible, and didn't eliminate any foods right away, paying close attention for any consistent adverse reactions. Anyone with "leaky gut" has a good deal of dysbiosis, maldigestion, and malabsorption, so I started out treating myself with good strong probiotics (Hyperbiotics PRO-15 regular strength 5 billion cfu "pearls" three times daily at first, then switched to Hyperbiotics PRO-15 Advanced Strength 15 billion cfu once daily) and broad spectrum digestive enzymes (first I used Doctor's Best digestive enzymes) after every meal, for a month, and I noticed a good deal of improvement in reduction of acid reflux, and better digestion and absorption of different foods, as well as vitamins, minerals, and other supplements I was taking, just from these changes. (Drinking skim milk had started bothering me a little initially but this went away quickly - this is the distinction is temporary and changing food sensitivities can be the norm as a result of "leaky gut", not necessarily implying they are the cause, especially if they are new).I added Betaine Hcl with Pepsin (NOW brand) as another enzyme supplement and a gastric acid supplement to help with the acid reflux (Google GERD and low stomach acid - it's counterintuitive), and then learned about Gluten Digest, which I thought also could help me better digest proteins that I might be starting to have trouble digesting, even though I had no obvious symptoms of this. Low stomach acid alone is enough to cause dysbiosis, maldigestion, and malabsorption, and "leaky gut", and this is made worse by taking acid reducers such as the omeprazole I had been taking, along with the NSAIDs I had also been taking. I reasoned that since with "leaky gut" actively affecting you it was common to develop new food sensitivities even if there were none to begin with, that taking the Gluten Digest might give me the help I needed to digest gluten for long enough so my intestines could heal without forming any more immune complexes or new food sensitivities. I took all three - Doctor's Best Enzymes, Betaine Hcl with pepsin, and NOW Gluten Digest, one capsule each, after every meal, and my digestion seemed to improve further, especially since I the Betaine Hcl had allowed me to wean off the omeprazole,I added to the supplements I was taking licorice root (Nature's Way), aloe vera gel caps (NOW), and slippery elm (NOW) all to help soothe and heal the GI tract, and these three also further reduce acid reflux. I had already stopped the NSAIDs and started taking MSM (Jarrow) and Meriva Turmeric root (truNature by Costco) for my arthritis instead. I started taking the amino acid L-glutamine (Jarrow) 1000mg two tablets three times daily, which is a direct treatment for "leaky gut" because it is absorbed by the enterocytes on contact to help them heal the "tight junctions", and this time I especially noticed another clear improvement after a few weeks of this in my absorption of nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and supplements, even further.Finally, after three months of treating my GI tract and my intestinal hyperpermeability, continuing all the above interventions and supplements as described, including all three en
I have gluten ataxia, where I get skunk drunk from eating gluten. It's the ultimate ultra cheap three day hangover. π I lived in mortal fear of all food for the first two months after finally figuring out what was wrong with me. After realizing how good I could feel once I cut out gluten/dairy/sugar/nitrates/chemicals I was not willing to ever go back to drunk land. No eating out whatsoever, found out the hard way that gluten can be hiding in anything. After doing some serious digging in the medical research stacks, I found reasonable evidence that the active digestive enzyme in this supplement may be able to help me.I have learned a few things.- I need to take the pill at least 5 minutes prior to eating stuff. Give it time to dissolve and be ready. If I take it with the offending food or after, it's useless.-for me it is not a miracle pill, dang do I wish I could eat pizza with this baby, but no. But it seems from my reactions to stuff that my level of sick/inflammation/allergy(whatever label you want to slap on there) is still pretty severe. My body still needs to heal. Maybe someday pizza is in my future, just not right now. However, this pill does keep me feeling good if I eat stuff that has hidden gluten in it. I could eat off the gluten free menu at Red Robin without getting sick, finally.One last side note? I was able to heal my body completely last summer with the GAPS intro diet, as hard as that was. My nerve pain was so bad that it interfered with walking normal, and I'm a young mom. It totally worked, even though it was really hard. After completing the gaps intro diet, I kept the main offenders (sugar gluten dairy nitrates chemicals) to a minimum and felt great. Then I fell off the bandwagon at Christmas. My body crashed hard in January, and that's when I really started logging symptoms and connecting dots that led me to gluten ataxia, along with the other stuff that also irritates. I will go back to the Gaps diet again this summer when life calms down a touch because I felt so great on it and after three months on 'The intro to gaps', I could be so much more free in what I ate as long as I was careful. Look on Dropy for a book called 'What Can I Eat Now?, 30 Days on the Gaps Introductory Diet' by Cara Comini, very helpful, especially when you feel wretchedly sick and just can't think straight. For me, having gobs of energy and full brain processing power was totally worth the sacrifice of my taste buds.
works good, easy to swallow, no aftertaste
