HelloPharmacist Scorecard of Enzycore by SP Standard Process

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.

From our pharmacy team — supplement deep dive

Generated from HelloPharmacist’s pharmacist-curated databases and editorial rules · Last generated Jul 30, 2026

What’s inside

Low disclosure
Ingredient Transparency · database check
Low

Most active ingredients don't disclose an individual amount — you can't tell how much of each you're getting.

Why this rating?
  • The label discloses an exact amount for 0 of its 14 active ingredients.
  • “Proprietary Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label gives one combined amount (538 mg) without saying how much of each component you get.
  • “Vegetarian Enzyme Blend” is a proprietary blend — the label doesn't break down how much of each component you get.

Enzycore contains 14 active and inactive ingredients centered on a digestive enzyme blend. The main players are L-glutamine (an amino acid), bromelain (a pineapple-derived enzyme), and a mix of digestive enzymes: lipase, lactase, peptidase, invertase, glucoamylase, alpha-galactosidase, and three protease variants.

There's also kale powder for added nutrition. The inactive ingredients are cellulose, maltodextrin, and calcium stearate — standard capsule fillers and binders.

Does it work?

Strong evidence
Evidence for Intended Use · database check
By FDA rules, dietary supplements can’t claim to treat, cure, or prevent disease — so labels speak in careful marketing language. We discern each product’s intended use from its name, label claims, and label statements, then grade the clinical evidence for that use. How these ratings are computed
Strong

Clinical evidence supports at least one of this product's ingredients for its stated purpose.

Why this rating?
  • The label markets this product for: Digestive enzyme support.
  • We looked for evidence on: Dyspepsia, Lactose intolerance, Diarrhea, Pancreatitis, Peptic ulcers, Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) — and 4 related terms.
  • The strongest evidence on file: Lactase is rated "Effective" for Lactose intolerance (Natural Medicines).
  • Also on file: Glutamine is rated "Possibly Effective" for Pancreatitis.
  • Also on file: Glutamine is rated "Possibly Ineffective" for Crohn disease, Radiation-induced diarrhea.

The evidence for Enzycore's ingredients is mixed. L-glutamine is effective for sickle cell disease and possibly effective for HIV/AIDS-related wasting, postoperative recovery, and critical illness recovery.

Lactase is effective for lactose intolerance. The other active ingredients — bromelain, lipase, the other digestive enzymes, and kale powder — don't have established evidence in the data we hold; their effectiveness for various conditions remains insufficient to rate.

The evidence, ingredient by ingredient Glutamine Kale

How safe is it?

Well-documented data
Safety Information · database check
Well characterized

Adverse-effect, pregnancy, and general safety data are on file for most of these ingredients.

Why this rating?
  • We hold adverse-effect (side-effect) data for 5 of the 6 matched ingredients.
  • Pregnancy & breastfeeding safety ratings cover 6 of 6.
  • General safety write-ups exist for 6 of 6.
  • Remember: this measures how much safety information exists. Thin data is not the same as being safe.

L-glutamine is likely safe in pregnancy and lactation, though you should avoid supplemental doses unless your doctor recommends them. Bromelain should be avoided during pregnancy and breastfeeding due to insufficient safety data.

Lactase is likely safe in pregnancy and lactation. The protease enzymes and lipase have limited pregnancy and breastfeeding data; check with your doctor before regular use.

Common side effects from L-glutamine include belching, bloating, constipation, diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, and vomiting. Bromelain may cause diarrhea, flatulence, gastric upset, or headache.

Rare allergic reactions to bromelain or the protease enzymes are possible, particularly if you're sensitive to pineapple or enzyme dust.

Side effects, ingredient by ingredient Glutamine Kale

Meds to double-check

Moderate interaction found
Known Interaction Concern · database check
Moderate identified

The most serious documented interaction for these ingredients is Moderate. Check your medications for a personalized result.

Why this rating?
  • 2 of the 6 matched ingredients can interact with medications — Glutamine, Bromelain.
  • The most serious interaction on file is rated Moderate.
  • Some involve high-stakes drug classes: anticoagulant / antiplatelet drugs; seizure medications.
  • For scale: 191 individual medications appear in the full list. A big number alone doesn't make a product dangerous — what matters is whether YOUR medication is on it, so run yours through the interaction checker on this page.

Before taking Enzycore, check your prescriptions against anticonvulsant medications (seizure drugs), as L-glutamine may theoretically weaken their effect. If you're on blood thinners or antiplatelet drugs like warfarin, aspirin, or clopidogrel, clear it with your doctor or pharmacist — bromelain may increase bleeding risk.

Tetracycline antibiotics are a minor concern; bromelain might raise their levels, though evidence is limited.

Check your own medication Run your meds through the checker above

The bottom line

Scorecard at a glanceFormula with limited ingredient disclosure with clinical evidence supporting its stated purpose. Moderate medication interactions have been identified, and safety information is well characterized.

Enzycore is a digestive enzyme blend with L-glutamine and kale, useful if you have lactose intolerance or your doctor has recommended glutamine for sickle cell disease or post-surgical recovery. If you take anticonvulsants, blood thinners, or tetracycline antibiotics, check with your pharmacist or doctor before starting — your medications might be affected.

Talk it over with your own healthcare provider to make sure it fits your health and prescriptions.

Enzycore by SP Standard Process: Common Questions

Does Enzycore by SP Standard Process interact with any medications?
Yes. Based on its ingredients, Enzycore has a known interaction with 191 medications. Use the checker to see how it interacts with a specific drug.
How can one product interact with so many drugs?
Enzycore contains 3 active ingredients, and an interaction can come from any of them. We check every ingredient, combine the results into one list per medication, and show which ingredient and mechanism is responsible.
Where does this information come from?
The product label data comes from the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database (DSLD); the interaction data is built on the Natural Medicines database and reviewed by HelloPharmacist pharmacists.
Is L-glutamine safe while I'm pregnant?
L-glutamine is rated likely safe in pregnancy, though you should avoid supplemental doses unless your doctor specifically recommends them. Talk with your doctor about whether this product is right for you at this stage.
Can I take Enzycore if I'm breastfeeding?
L-glutamine is likely safe while breastfeeding, but avoid supplemental doses unless your clinician advises it. Bromelain should be avoided — safety data is lacking. Check with your doctor or pharmacist about the other enzymes before starting.
Will Enzycore help my digestion?
Enzycore contains multiple digestive enzymes like lipase and lactase, which help break down fats and lactose. Lactase is proven effective for lactose intolerance. The other enzymes don't yet have enough evidence in our data to confirm they work for general digestive support, so results may vary.
What's L-glutamine actually for?
L-glutamine is an amino acid your body uses to help repair and maintain intestinal and muscle tissue. It's established as effective for sickle cell disease and shows promise for recovery after surgery or illness, but your doctor would tell you if it's right for your situation.
Can I take this if I have a pineapple allergy?
Bromelain comes from pineapple, so if you're allergic to pineapple or have had allergic reactions to bromelain products, avoid this supplement. Rare allergic reactions including difficulty swallowing, throat itching, and asthma have been reported with bromelain exposure.
What's the kale powder in here for?
Kale is a nutrient-dense green vegetable added here for its nutritional content. It's safe in normal amounts and likely safe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, though the evidence for kale supplements for specific health conditions isn't established in our data.
