First seen Jul 21, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 3 times
Summary
This study tests whether a daily supplement called Enzymax DuoBiotics can ease symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in adults. The supplement combines digestive enzymes that break down food in the stomach with a probiotic and prebiotic that support gut bacteria in the intestines. Over 12 weeks, researchers will measure changes in symptom severity and quality of life in 120 participants, comparing the supplement to a placebo.
