Emergency enzymes

Post by shepherdmom31 » 27 Jan 2020, 11:42

Hi guys Im in a bit of a bind and need your advice. I’ve been ordering enzymes for my dog from the vet which come in the next day. This time I decided to try ordering from Enzyme Diane. I made the mistake of ordering on a Friday and I looks like my order is being shipped today. My dog is not going to have enough enzymes to make it that long. I have ordered a bottle from my vet that should be in tomorrow, but she doesn’t have enough for dinner tonight and breakfast tomorrow. Have any of you used any store bought enzymes that are listed on the Enzyme Diane website or any other type of emergency enzymes to get by? If so what did you use and did it work?

Thanks, Alyssa

Yes we have used the enzymes listed on Diane's site for emergency. Just go to the health food store and look for pancreatin for highest in protease, lipase and amylase. Make sure they are not plant based however. You might keep these on hand . You might need a few capsules or so to get to the strength you need.
