Supergest
Higher Nature
Overview
Supergest provides a broad spectrum of digestive enzymes and complementary herbs that are generally effective at supporting the digestion of various macronutrients. While many of the enzymes are known to be efficacious, the specific activity units for each enzyme are not disclosed, making it difficult to fully assess the optimal dosage and overall effectiveness. The inclusion of traditional digestive herbs like ginger and fennel adds potential synergistic benefits.
The Good
Broad-spectrum enzyme blend for comprehensive digestion of proteins, fats, and carbohydrates.
Includes lactase to aid in lactose digestion, beneficial for those with lactose sensitivity.
Contains cellulase and xylanase to help break down plant fibers, potentially reducing bloating and improving nutrient extraction from plant-based foods.
The Bad
Lack of specific enzyme activity units (e.g., FIP, DU, HUT) makes it impossible to verify optimal dosing for each enzyme, reducing transparency and confidence in potency.
Enzyme amounts are listed in milligrams, which is not a standard or informative measure for enzyme strength.
The individual amounts of specific protease types (Protease 3, Protease 4.5, Protease 6 Concentrate) are given, but their combined activity is unclear for overall protein digestion.
Is it for you?
