Udo’s Choice Digestive Enzymes Gold | Advanced High-Potency Digestive Enzymes for Protein, Fat & Complex Carbohydrate Breakdown

Stronger enzyme support for real-life digestion.

Udo’s Choice Digestive Enzymes Gold is our most advanced, high-potency formula - featuring nine plant-based digestive enzymes, including three targeted proteases and alpha-galactosidase for complex carbohydrates. Designed to support the breakdown of protein, fat, fibre and hard-to-digest plant foods, this blend is ideal for active lifestyles, high-protein diets, and anyone needing deeper digestive support.

Loved & trusted in the UK for over 20 years, Digestive Enzymes Gold is the original, clean, plant-based formula — designed to work naturally with your digestive system.

Why You’ll Love It

Digestive Enzymes Gold is a high-strength, broad-spectrum digestive enzyme blend formulated to help your body efficiently break down:

• Proteins (three different proteases, plus bromelain)

• Fats (lipase)

• Starches (amylase)

• Complex plant carbohydrates (alpha-galactosidase — ideal for beans/pulses)

• Vegetable fibre (cellulase)

• Lactose (lactase)

Perfect if you:

• Follow a high-protein diet
• Eat a plant-based or vegetarian diet high in beans, lentils and pulses
• Are an athlete consuming increased calories
• Experience heaviness after fatty meals
• Want enhanced nutrient breakdown and digestive comfort
• Need a stronger formula than our standard Digestive Enzyme Blend

What Makes Digestive Enzymes Gold Different?

✔ 100% plant-based enzymes - no ox bile, betaine HCl or animal derivatives

✔ Survives stomach acidity naturally - no enteric coating needed

✔ Measured using FCC standards - the global gold standard for enzyme activity

✔ Ideal for athletes, active individuals, and high-protein diets

✔ Great for plant-based eaters (beans, pulses, whole grains, and fibre-rich diets)
