FAQ

What are the benefits of taking Swanson Papaya Enzyme Papain?
Swanson Papaya Enzyme Papain delivers 100 mg of papain, a protein-digesting enzyme naturally derived from papaya, in each vegan capsule. Papain helps support the breakdown of dietary proteins, promoting healthy digestion and digestive comfort at mealtimes. Unlike many chewable papaya enzyme products, these capsules are sugar free and contain no artificial colors or unnecessary additives, making them a convenient option for everyday digestive support.
How does papain support healthy digestion?
Papain is a naturally occurring proteolytic (protein-digesting) enzyme found in papaya. It works by helping break large protein molecules into smaller peptides and amino acids, supporting the body's normal digestive process. Taking papain before meals can help optimize protein digestion and promote digestive wellness as part of a balanced diet.

Swanson Papaya Enzyme Papain offers a sugar-free alternative to traditional chewable papaya enzyme tablets, which often contain added sugars, sweeteners or unnecessary calories. The vegan capsules deliver 100 mg of pure papain (12,000 USP units of activity per mg) directly to the stomach, providing targeted digestive support without artificial colors or added sugars.
How should I take Swanson Papaya Enzyme Papain 100 mg?
As a dietary supplement, take one vegan capsule with water before each meal, or as directed by your healthcare provider. Adults who are pregnant, nursing, taking medication or have a medical condition should consult a healthcare professional before using this or any dietary supplement.
Can papaya enzyme supplements support nutrient absorption?
Papain supports the body's natural digestive process by helping break down dietary proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids that are easier to digest. Efficient protein digestion helps your body utilize the nutrients from protein-containing foods as part of normal digestion. Swanson Papaya Enzyme Papain provides 100 mg of papain per vegan capsule to support healthy digestion and nutrient utilization at mealtimes.
