What do these taste like? I have had some brands that taste like orange baby aspirin :)
Shirley G

  They taste kind of like a sweet tart without the tart and just a little sweet. They are not unpleasant at all. I like them because they provide a little help in digestion, and can be carried everywhere you go. Definitely one of the tools in my toolbox. I work third shift and my stomach is not always ready or willing to digest food. I also found out that learning when and how to use fresh lemonade and or pineapple when my stomach lacks enough acid or calcium lactate when I have too much acid completes my toolbox in regards to the digestion/indigestion issue. Good luck!

Rudolph S

  They have a very pleasant, sort of pineapple like taste that is not chalky at all. I like that they are a natural food source and they really help my digestion considerably. Over the course of fifty years or so, the use of antibiotics has stripped my digestion of its flora and that does not replace itself. I highly recommend the papaya enzyme supplements. I take them every morning with breakfast.

E Louise S

  I have been using this exact same brand for 44 years! There is no aspirin taste or chalkiness. They have a mildly sweet fruit taste. They are perfect to use after a heavy meal, especially protein, like a ribeye steak.Hope this helps you. I swear by them.Barbara B.

Barbara A

  They don't have much of a taste at all. Nor are they chalky. I just munch on them with no problems. I did try the Super . . . They have a definite fresher (I don't know any other way to describe it) after taste. I prefer the ones you are asking about.

Ellen I

  I can relate. but these art more powdery then sugary. they taste more like little mint pellets.there's a slight chalky after taste but over all very little sugar.

stanley p

  They have a mild papaya flavor. A little chalky. They also have a mint flavor, which are okay, but I prefer the papaya.

Dawn F

  Slightly sweet and slightly citrus but not quite like baby aspirin. It is a very pleasant taste. I love this product.

Kathleen M

  Hi. Shirley:They taste like candies. I have been taking 3 after each dinner. My son also likes them.

SanSan Y

  These taste pretty good. They are nice and fruity with no bitterness. My kids love the taste.

Valerie B

  This brand has a papaya taste. It isn't too strong, and is pleasant to chew.

Marjorie A

  I have tasted better but my husband really liked them.

Will this help with acid reflux?
Original Papaya Enzyme
About
Original Papaya Enzyme
Andy L.

  I have heard someone claim that, however, stomach acid breaks down papaya enzyme - so it should be useless in addressing reflux. Try sleeping on a wedge that lifts your head a little higher. Do not eat or drink for at least a few hours prior to lying down. Drinking aloe juice might also help.

Deborah O

  My mom gave me 2-3 of the papaya enzyme chewable tablets whenever I had heart burn when I was a little kid. I totally forgot about it for about 10 yrs & saw it at the Vitiamin Shoppe & decided to give it a try again. Still works! It's all natural. What do you have to lose except heartburn?

Carmella W

  We bought this product because of issues with acid reflux. Taken as directed, we've found it to be very helpful. We like the fact that it's natural and it's tasty. We keep it with us all the time.

Victoria A

  Yes, Papaya is an excellent antacid substitute. I let them melt in my mouth and really enjoy the benefits.Try them, I'm confident you will benefit!

Steven S

  In my experience, no, this hasn't helped with heartburn. It can actually make some people's acid reflux worse.

Alicia A.

  No, this aids in the digestion of protein.
