Changed formula, new toxic mold ingredients
I purchased a promotional pack of these a while back and used them almost daily consistently for the last year. There used to be wonderful. I got a new bottle a few weeks ago. I have had horrible GI symptoms, but never suspected the enzymes I have been taking for so long with such great results. After a few straight weeks of constant flatulence I knew something was seriously not right and something had to be causing this. I don’t know how familiar you are with the brackish sludge left in a salt water marsh at low tide on a sunny, humid day in August, but that isn’t what a healthy gut microbiome smells like. I look at the label and what do I see but ASPERGILLUS NIGER being used to derive enzymes from. I don’t care how much you process it. I have had sick building syndrome from Aspergillus Niger. People got so sick in that building that they gave up decades of state retirement to save themselves. Cancer clusters, autoimmune response, POTS syndrome, you name it. There is no safe amount for people who have been through this kind of exposure, and people who have been through that are typically reliant on supplements such as these to mitigate the damages to their bodies. Aspergillus niger secretes the same toxin as Stachybotrys. Perhaps not to the same degree, but it isn’t ok in any degree to a significant genetically vulnerable percentage of the population. The same population of people who need such supplements. SHAME ON YOU ZENWISE FOR CHANGING TO A TOXIC FORMULATION.
