Clinical Trial on Digestive Enzymes: Effects on Post-Meal Response to High-Macronutrient Meals
NCT06949735 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: PHASE2 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 24
Last updated 2026-05-01
Summary
This study aims to show how digestive enzyme supplements help the body break down fats, proteins, and carbohydrates, especially after eating a high-macronutrient meal. Digestive enzymes are essential for nutrient absorption, but some people-such as those with certain medical conditions or high-protein diets-may not produce enough on their own. Poor digestion can lead to bloating, discomfort, and gut imbalances. This clinical trial tests a delayed-release, porcine-derived enzyme blend to see if it improves digestion and reduces symptoms like bloating and gas after eating a high-macronutrient meal.
