Answer: Dosing is by the size of the meal, not age or body weight. Typically, it’s best to start with 1 capsule per meal, with the exception of TriEnza, which is 2 capsules per meal. Those eating a small meal, such as younger children, by find a half-dose to be adequate. There isn’t any upper limit with dosing, and no toxicity associated with enzymes.
