5.0 out of 5 stars It IS better than Beano
After testing the same number of tablets (5) and same mode of intake (chewing instead of swallowing whole) on the same batch of vegetable soup with cabbage, I have determined that Bean-zyme works better than Beano. Beano only delayed onset of symptoms by 2 hours. Bean-zyme eliminated the symptoms altogether. In addition, chewing Beano is like eating chalk, whereas the...

2.0 out of 5 stars Bean-zyme Ingredients
The main ingredient in this product is the same as Beano. However, several of the inactive ingredients are different -- like Bean-zyme has corn starch and sorbitol. So this is likely a good product if you're ok with their inactive ingredients. But they are ones we prefer to avoid so we're going back to Beano.

Beano only delayed onset of symptoms by 2 hours. Bean-zyme eliminated the symptoms altogether. In addition, chewing Beano is like eating chalk, whereas the Bean-zyme is slightly sweetened with something, which makes chewing the tablets bearable.

I had a good sized amount of scallions, beans, butter, butter milk, pork and orange juice: This stuff works; nothing happened even though I had taken it a few minutes after eating a lot. I only had a few burps spaced out over a long time. I took two instead of one the first time like one reviewer suggested. On top of that paying just regular shipping got me delivery in 3 days.

4.0 out of 5 stars As good as Beano for less, April 14, 2008

Often 1 tablet of either brand doesnt do it for certain foods. 2 usually helps a great deal.

I wish they offered a bigger discount for buying in quantity.

For those buying 1 bottle, shipping is 26 cents cheaper at that auction site that rymes with Flea. (same price)
Edit. They no longer sell it on fleabay but I think buying it direct from their website might be a little cheaper

When I hit 40, I started having all kind of disgestive issues. Became lactose intolerant. Digestive Advantage solved that. (I cant drink milk or eat ice cream but everything else is fine)

I take a pro-biotic at least once a day and sometimes twice. That and taking fiber capsules has taken some weight off my midsection and I feel a whole lot less bloated all the time.

Throw in this generic beano when needed and its almost like I was young again. (Except when I forget to take something, then the issues come right back again !)

I hate getting old.


EDIT...a few years later.... I have since tried Digestive Advantage Gas Defense formula and its better than Beano or the knock off but its more expensive. So you have to decide for yourself if you want to spend the extra.

I would say a Digestive Advantage is about 150% as good as a beano and you can take it in the morning instead of right before. Although if I am eating especially gassy foods, I will take another right before the food.

5.0 out of 5 stars At least as good as bean-o, and chewable!, October 13, 2006

I eat 4 cups of (cooked) frozen mixed vegetables including corn, green beans, peas, and carrots nearly every evening. I find that 5 or 6 of these tablets does seem to limit the production of gas in my intestines. This product works as well, or better, than the more expensive bean-o, and they are chewable, which makes them a lot easier to gulp down discretely when eating out at a restaurant.

Last night we stopped to eat German food (Sauerbraten, spaetzel, cabbage, and beer) before a 3-hour James Taylor concert, and I didn't fart once all evening long!

Now I can eat and not have to limit what veggies I have or how much garlic I put in when cooking. Although the directions say take two pills I take three at least 30 minutes before eating and everything is good.

I've been using Bean-Zyme for over a year. It works as well as, if not better than Beano. Digestive issues are tough to deal with, and if you are troubled by certain foods such as cabbage and beans, chew a couple of these tablets just before you eat and it can really, really help.

There are no side effects that I've experienced, and it is a good idea to keep the product in your refrigerator.

You'll wonder how those 'bubbles'fade when you take Bean-Zyme Digestive Aid. Works wonders with Bran, Cauliflower, Broccoli, Beans, and all the other healthy foods that cause gas. I use it all the time and no longer have problems as I try to keep a healthy diet.

I use it just as directed or sometimes a little late (like during the meal). My wife uses one pill more than directed and the same with the timing.

We find that it always works at least as well as Beano and may even be better. She thinks so anyway. And there can be no doubt that it is cheaper. Cheaper to the point of being reasonable! Yay!

This product works very well, even if taken a couple hours in advance. Now I can binge on vegetables as often as i like, raw or cooked.

For those who say it doesn't work for them, perhaps they should increase the dose - I take 2 to 4 tablets depending on what I'm eating - or experiment with the timing.

I am a big fan of Beano. Everyone in my family takes one a day, or one with key meals. Beans are wonderful food -- lots of fiber. But, well, we all know the downside. This "Bean-zyme" product is far cheaper than Beano, and after one full bottle of 100 pills, I can say, just as good. And, yes, we have tried other "digestive aids" and they don't do the job. So, five stars.
