Love chili, lentil soup or roasted broccoli but not what comes afterwards? Beano contains alpha-galactosidase, a food enzyme that breaks down the complex carbohydrates in beans, lentils, vegetables and whole grains before they reach the gut bacteria that turn them into gas. It works in the digestive tract and isn't absorbed into the bloodstream.Key ingredient Alpha-galactosidase enzyme, with inactive ingredients for tablet stability No stimulants or laxatives; non-drowsy How to take it Adults and children over 12: 1 tablet with the first bite of a meal likely to cause gas For a large or heavy meal, a second tablet may be taken It must be taken with the meal, not after, because the enzyme works as you digest Stay within the daily limit on the package Not for everyone Do not use if you have galactosemia Ask your doctor first if you have diabetes, as it can change how carbohydrates are digested Pregnant, breastfeeding or managing a medical condition: get advice before use Mild digestive changes are possible at first. Stop if you notice an allergic reaction. Keep away from young children
