Below is general information about the safety of the known ingredients contained in the product GM-H3. Some ingredients may not be listed. This information does NOT represent a recommendation for or a test of this specific product as a whole.
LIKELY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately with lactose-containing foods. Lactase has Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) status in the US when prepared from Candida pseudotropicalis or Kluyveromyces lactis (104108,104109). Lactase has been used safely in doses up to 9900 international units (IU) and up to 13,500 food chemical codex (FCC) units (2371,2372,2373,106669).
CHILDREN: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately with lactose-containing foods.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION: LIKELY SAFE
when used orally and appropriately with lactose-containing foods.
There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of lipase.
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY UNSAFE
when recombinant human bile salt-stimulated lipase (rhBSSL) is used orally by premature infants.
Adding rhBSSL to infant formula or pasteurized breast milk increases the risk for serious gastrointestinal adverse effects in premature infants (101940).
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. Various proteolytic enzymes have been safely used orally in clinical research (716,964,965,968,969,6252,6253,10622,11457,18281,18284) (91104,91105,91106,91111,96449). Side effects are typically mild to moderate and most often include gastrointestinal effects. See specific monographs for more detailed information related to the safety of individual proteolytic enzymes. ...when used topically and appropriately. Various proteolytic enzymes have been safely used topically in clinical research (67835,67843,67845,91113). Some proteolytic enzymes might cause allergic reactions when used topically. See specific monographs for more detailed information related to the safety of individual proteolytic enzymes.
PREGNANCY AND LACTATION:
Insufficient reliable information available; avoid using.
POSSIBLY SAFE ...when used orally and appropriately. A gliadin-protected formulation of superoxide dismutase (Glisodin, Isocell Laboratory) has been used with apparent safety at doses up to 1 gram daily for up to 12 weeks or 500 mg daily for up to 24 weeks (106849). In combination with other ingredients, superoxide dismutase 140 IU and 10 mg have been used with apparent safety for up to 4 months and 12 months, respectively (20488,105502). ...when used parenterally, short term. Intravenous, intramuscular, and local injections of superoxide dismutase have been used with apparent safety, short-term (2230,2231,2232,2233,2241,2243). However, since some preparations are derived from animals, there is concern about contamination with diseased animal parts (1825). So far, there are no reports of disease transmission to humans due to use of contaminated preparations. Lecithinized recombinant superoxide dismutase 20-160 mg as a single intravenous dose has been used with apparent safety (105503). There is insufficient reliable information available about the safety of superoxide dismutase when used topically or in the eye.
CHILDREN: POSSIBLY SAFE
when administered via subcutaneous injection.
Superoxide dismutase 0.25 mg/kg twice daily until ventilator support is no longer required has been used with apparent safety in pre-term infants (2242).

General ...Orally, lactase is generally well tolerated.
Immunologic ...A case of lactase-induced contact dermatitis and immunoglobulin E (IgE)-mediated allergic rhinoconjunctivitis has been reported in a worker exposed to powdered lactase. Allergy to lactase was confirmed by prick test, open application test, and chamber challenge test (96348).
General
...No adverse effects have been reported in adults.
However, a thorough evaluation of safety outcomes has not been conducted.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Orally: Gastrointestinal adverse effects, such as necrotizing enterocolitis, when recombinant human bile salt-stimulated lipase is used in premature infants.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, when added to the formula or pasteurized breast milk consumed by premature infants, recombinant human bile salt-stimulated lipase (rhBSSL) can cause gastrointestinal adverse effects, including abdominal distension, flatulence, constipation, colic, abdominal pain, gastroenteritis, vomiting, regurgitation, and rectal bleeding (101940). Premature infants receiving rhBSSL also had a slightly higher rate of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) when compared with those receiving placebo. After review by a panel of experts, it was determined that the rate of confirmed or suspected NEC in infants consuming rhBSSL was 3.3%, compared with 0.5% in those receiving placebo. Although this rate of NEC is lower than the historical rate of occurrence in premature infants (11%), a possible increased risk for NEC cannot be ruled out (101940).
General
...Orally, proteolytic enzymes are generally well tolerated.
See specific monographs for detailed safety information related to individual proteolytic enzymes.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Orally: Gastrointestinal upset.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Topically: Allergic reactions.
Gastrointestinal ...Orally, some patients taking proteolytic enzymes may have gastrointestinal complaints (101517).
Immunologic ...Proteolytic enzymes are commonly found in laundry detergents and pre-spotter products. Rarely, protease specific IgE positive tests possibly related to these products have occurred. Exposure may be airborne or topical (102705). In addition, in case reports, occupational exposure to the airborne proteolytic enzyme pepsin has resulted in allergic rhinoconjunctivitis or asthma (102706,102707).
General
...Orally and parenterally, superoxide dismutase seems to be well tolerated.
Most Common Adverse Effects:
Parenterally: Pain and injection site reactions.
Serious Adverse Effects (Rare):
Parenterally: Anaphylaxis, possibly related to impurities in parenteral formulations.
Hematologic ...As an injection, superoxide dismutase may cause elevations in triglyceride and direct bilirubin levels. Cases of transient elevations in triglycerides and direct bilirubin have been reported after a single injection of lecithinized recombinant superoxide dismutase (105503).
Immunologic ...As an injection, superoxide dismutase can cause allergic reactions at the injection site in some patients (2235). It can also cause anaphylactic shock, which may be caused by product impurities (11008).
Musculoskeletal ...As an injection, superoxide dismutase can cause pain at the injection site in some patients (2235).
Neurologic/CNS ...Superoxide dismutase may be prepared from bovine liver. Products made from contaminated or diseased organs might present a human health hazard. There is also concern that spleen extracts produced from cows in countries where bovine spongiform encephalitis (BSE) has been reported might be contaminated with diseased tissue (1825). Thus far, there have been no reports of BSE transfer to humans from contaminated SOD products.
