Beano Digestive Enzyme, Preventive Gas Relief for Adults, Helps Prevent Gas & Bloating, 150 Tablets

Works great! I get a lot of gas due to eating a very high fiber diet. These help a lot to keep my bloating down and not passing so munch gas. Tasteless and no burps afterwards. Very good value for money!

I have SIBO, so gas pain is part of my daily life. I used gas x, peppermint oils, and all the anti-gas meds on the market, but Beano is the one I return to. I've tried a couple other digestive enzymes since it's not perfect and I do still have mild pain and burping on bad flare days, but this still gives the most consistent results. It helps it's a flavorless chewable, so I can just pop a few in my mouth and chew without needing a drink when out and about at like a festival and I just want to grab hotdog or getting munchy on a car ride.

Bottle and expiration date as expected. Great product.

Does the job pretty well---not outstandingly, but well enough

Beano is an over-the-counter dietary supplement designed to help prevent gas, bloating, and discomfort caused by eating certain foods. It contains a natural enzyme called alpha-galactosidase (α-GAL). How Beano Works Many healthy foods, such as beans, vegetables (like broccoli, cabbage, and onions), and whole grains, contain complex carbohydrates (oligosaccharides and polysaccharides) that your body can't fully digest on its own. When these undigested carbohydrates reach the large intestine, bacteria break them down, producing gas as a byproduct. Beano's alpha-galactosidase enzyme works in your digestive tract to break down these complex carbohydrates into simpler, more easily digestible sugars before they reach your colon. This process helps prevent gas from forming in the first place. Key Uses and Benefits Gas Prevention: Beano is specifically used to prevent gas, bloating, and discomfort associated with eating gas-producing foods. Digestive Support: It helps your body digest foods more efficiently, reducing occasional digestive discomfort. Wide Range of Foods: While commonly associated with beans, Beano can help with a variety of foods, including: Vegetables: Broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, carrots, corn, lettuce, onions, peppers, Brussels sprouts, beets, leeks. Legumes: Beans (black-eyed peas, chickpeas, lima beans, pinto beans, kidney beans), lentils, peanuts, and soy products. Grains: Whole-grain breads, pasta, oat bran, barley, rye, sorghum grain, breakfast cereals, granola. How to Take Beano It's important to take Beano at the right time for it to be effective: When to Take: Take Beano right before your first bite of the gas-causing food, or as you are eating it. Taking it too late might not give the enzyme enough time to work. Dosage: The typical recommended dose is 2-3 tablets per meal, or 1 tablet per serving of problem food. You might need to adjust the number of tablets based on the amount of gas-causing food you consume. Formulations: Beano is available in tablets (which can be swallowed whole or chewed) and "Meltaways" (strawberry-flavored tablets that dissolve on your tongue). Heat Sensitivity: The enzyme in Beano can be inactivated by high heat, so do not cook with Beano or add it to hot foods. Important Considerations and Side Effects Not a Drug: Beano is a dietary supplement, not a medication. Allergies: If you have a rare sensitivity to the ingredients (which can be derived from Aspergillus niger, a fungus), discontinue use. Individuals with galactosemia should consult their doctor before using Beano. Pregnancy/Breastfeeding: While there's no information to suggest Beano is unsafe during pregnancy or breastfeeding, it's always recommended to consult your doctor before use if you are pregnant or nursing. Diabetes: Beano breaks down complex sugars into simpler ones. While it adds a small number of carbohydrates, diabetics should consult their physician regarding its use and how it might affect blood glucose levels. Side Effects: Beano is generally well-tolerated. Rare side effects can include allergic reactions (rash, hives, itching, swelling) or minor gastrointestinal discomfort. If you experience severe or persistent side effects, contact your doctor. Gas-X vs. Beano: It's important to note that Beano works differently than gas relief products like Gas-X (which contains simethicone). Beano prevents gas by breaking down indigestible sugars, while simethicone helps break up existing gas bubbles. Always talk to your pharmacist or doctor before starting Beano or any new supplement, especially if you have existing medical conditions or are taking other medications.

It works for me, makes the digestion of some legumes at least a bit better, somerimes I take 1 pill & a half or two.

Did not do anything to help my digestive issue. Will not buy again

These things work !

Excellent item

sorry but this dietary supplement has no effect on gas, flatulence. I tried for several days, but it does nothing.

Product ok

This is a miracle medicine for people who have difficulty digesting foods like beans, cabbage family vegetables(Cauliflower, broccoli, Brussels sprouts) , onion and garlic. This is just an enzyme some of us are missing in our stomach/ digestive tract. This enzyme helps with digestion. Absolutely no side effects. Only thing is you have to take this table 15-20 min before eating a meal. It keeps a check on your stomach and a happy gut. I highly recommend this product.

Actually works wonders! Stops uncomfortable burping.
