Summary

This study tested a digestive enzyme supplement in 24 healthy adults to see if it helps break down fats, proteins, and carbs after a high-macronutrient meal. Participants took either the enzyme blend or a placebo and reported symptoms like bloating and gas. The goal is to find a simple supplement that eases digestive discomfort.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: digestive enzyme supplement (porcine-derived blend)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could point toward an over-the-counter supplement to ease bloating and discomfort after eating a heavy meal.
What could go wrong: This is a small, early-phase trial with only 24 healthy adults. The supplement may not work better than a placebo, and results may not apply to people with digestive disorders.
