What is Nested Naturals Super Enzymes?
Nested Naturals Super Enzymes is a supplement that can be taken in order to improve the digestion of food. It is designed to help people who have trouble digesting certain foods or people who suffer from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Large food molecules that enter the small intestine are broken down by specialized proteins called enzymes. This supplement contains the enzymes that help to break down the major food groups. This places less strain on the gastrointestinal tract when some of these foods are difficult to digest.
Ingredients
- Amylase
- Lactase
- Cellulase
- Hemicellulase
- Glucoamylase
- Protease
- Bromelain
- Papain
- Peppermint
- Ginger
- Fennel seed extract
The first five ingredients listed are enzymes that help to break down complex carbohydrate molecules such as those from whole wheat foods. The next three ingredients are enzymes which break down proteins from meat, beans and legumes. Interestingly enough this manufacturer does not include an enzyme to help the breakdown of fat molecules. Though many people don’t want to absorb too much fat, if the fats persist in the gastrointestinal tract they can cause irritation.
Peppermint, ginger and fennel seed extract are plant based products that have been shown to help digestion. Peppermint and fennel seed extract reduce spasms in the intestine by acting on the smooth muscle in the intestine. Ginger reduces nausea and vomiting.
Dosage
The manufacturer recommends taking one capsule a day with water. We find this dosage unusual and quite low, because digestive enzyme should be taken before every meal to help the digestion of that particular meal. Otherwise, digestive enzymes taken early in the day will not be present later in the day, when having dinner.

Our Final Review of Nested Naturals Super Enzymes
The ingredients included in this product are all natural and have a reasonable scientific backing. We find that the lifetime guarantee offered by the manufacturer, is quite a good indicator of their confidence in their product.
When we looked at the customer reviews for this product, we found that there were a number of positive reviews but there were repeated claims that the product did not work. We believe this is because the product is missing a vital enzyme and the dosage is simply too low.
It is also unfortunate that the manufacturer does not offer a discount for buying bulk because this means that the use of the product will be more expensive and tedious in the long run, as this product is intended for long-term use. We therefore believe this product is certainly adequate, but there are better digestive support supplements out there.
