Any Downside to Digestive Enzymes?

[Mag]

I am trying to stuff down more food than I am used to while on CBL.I am backloading every day unless I start getting fat…so far,so good.I have picked up some NOW super enzymes.I feel stuffed in the evenings and even a bit full when waking in the morning.If the enzymes are helping,how will I know and what will I feel?Is there anything that I naturally produce be reduced by supplementing with enzymes?

i have read things that say yes and no.. i personally would only take them if you are having huge meals or like for a CN type deal..

Robb Wolf has a podcast out about it, its an old one. He talks about taking enough to feel a burning sensation, then dial it down to about 1-2 capsules. They do help.

You shouldn't have any issues, unless you're way overdosing them. Which you'd likely be able to tell by the warm/burning sensation, that Tex mentions, in your upper stomach/lower sternum area.Using them can also help "train" your body to ramp up it's natural production of digestive enzymes.If you aren't having digestive issues (cramping, diarrhea, constipation, bloating, undigested food particles in your dook, etc), then you probably don't need them. How will you know they're helping? The issues will lessen/go away.
