Caricol harnesses the digestive benefits of papaya. The papaya in Caricol is prepared according to Traditional Chinese Medicine and Ayurvedic principals, making it up to 4x as potent as regular papaya enzymes. It effectively and sustainably helps with digestive problems, including slow digestion, constipation, and flatulence. Papaya also contains anti-inflammatory compounds that can help soothe intestinal inflammation.

Caricol focuses primarily on general digestive health such as helping relieve occasional constipation or feeling of fullness after eating. Caricol Gastro is specifically formulated to help alleviate heartburn and acid reflux, and soothe inflamed gastric mucosa.

Caricol is a whole-fruit extract, retaining the beneficial compounds found in the entire papaya, whereas many papaya-based enzymes may isolate specific enzymes without the full range of nutrients. The proprietary preparation approach makes the papaya in Caricol up to 4x as potent as regular papaya enzymes.

Papayas contain active digestive enzymes like Chymopapain and Papain, which help to transform proteins to important amino-acids. Caricol® contains 3.75 times more Papain activity than the fresh fruit.*

Furthermore, Caricol® comes in handy stick-packs, which can be taken anywhere at any time.
