HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Digestive Enzymes pH by NHC Natural Healthy Concepts
Our pharmacy team’s full take, with four database checks built into the cards below — a summary of what is known, not a grade of the product itself.
What’s inside
Partial disclosure
This product has three active digestive enzymes. Protease breaks down proteins, lipase breaks down fats, and amylase breaks down carbohydrates — together they're meant to aid the digestion of food.
The rest is inactive ingredients: calcium carbonate, microcrystalline cellulose, and a few other binders and flow agents that make up the capsule.
Does it work?
Not established
The evidence for these enzymes is limited. For lipase specifically, the data shows insufficient evidence to rate it for inflammatory bowel disease, dyspepsia (indigestion), or prematurity.
We don't hold effectiveness ratings for protease or amylase in the data we have. That means we can't tell you whether this product will actually help your digestion — the science isn't established enough in our files to say.
How safe is it?
Well-documented data
Protease and lipase are generally well tolerated by most adults, but both can cause digestive upset or allergic reactions in some people. Anyone with a serious digestive condition should only use this under medical guidance.
Protease carries a rare risk: occupational exposure to related enzymes has triggered allergic reactions like runny eyes, sinus inflammation, or asthma in some people, though that's mainly from airborne exposure in industrial settings. For pregnancy, protease safety hasn't been established and is best avoided unless your doctor prescribes it.
Lipase also has little safety data in pregnancy — use only if advised by your doctor. Neither has solid safety data during breastfeeding, so check with your healthcare provider first if you're nursing.
Meds to double-check
No known interactions
No interactions are documented in our data for the ingredients we could check. We don't hold interaction information for amylase, so you won't find it in our search tool.
Run your medications through the checker on this page to be thorough.
The bottom line
Scorecard at a glancePartially disclosed formula with no established evidence rating for its marketed use. No medication interactions are currently documented, and safety information is well characterized.
This is a basic digestive enzyme blend that's generally well tolerated by healthy adults. If you have a serious digestive condition like inflammatory bowel disease or if you're pregnant or breastfeeding, talk it over with your doctor or pharmacist first — the safety data is thin for those situations.
No medication interactions are documented, but check your exact medications to be sure.
