What it is
A broad-spectrum digestive enzyme blend -- proteases, amylase, and lipase -- taken with food. These are the same categories of enzyme the pancreas releases to break protein, starch, and fat into absorbable pieces, so the blend lends a hand to the digestion already underway during a meal.
Why the evidence supports it
Supplemental digestive enzymes have a reasonable evidence base for easing the sense of heaviness and bloating after meals, and the mechanism is direct: proteases, amylase, and lipase break the meal into the smaller pieces the gut can actually take up. That ties straight to the cell's Exchange function -- better-broken-down food means the nutrients cells need can be absorbed. The framing stays honest: this supports normal digestion and comfort, it is not a treatment for a diagnosed digestive condition.
What it supports
- Supports comfortable digestion after meals
- Provides protein-, starch-, and fat-digesting enzymes
- Supports normal nutrient absorption
- A sensible option for post-meal heaviness or bloating
Which function it supports
Ties to the cell's Exchange function -- better-digested food means the nutrients cells need can actually be taken in.

Each ingredient acts on several of the body's functions. Taken together, this product touches these cell and mind functions -- follow any to see the mechanism in full.
The ingredients
Mechanisms drawn from our ingredient knowledge base (1 profiled ingredients). Structure and function only -- not a treatment claim.
The science on the ingredients
These studies are research on the ingredients and mechanisms in this product, not on the finished product itself, and they are shown for education. For this ingredient most of the published work is laboratory or animal research rather than human trials, so read it as biology worth knowing rather than proof of an effect in people.

No product works in isolation
Every cell function above -- Sense, Exchange, Transform, Build, Maintain, Adapt -- needs the same broad base of optimal micronutrient levels running underneath it, all the time. Digest-It-All is not a stand-alone fix; it is one piece that plugs into that larger system. The foundation comes first, and this supports it.

FAQ
What does Digest-It-All support?
It supports comfortable digestion after meals, provides protein-, starch-, and fat-digesting enzymes, supports normal nutrient absorption, and is a sensible option for post-meal heaviness or bloating.
How do I take it?
Take with the first few bites of a meal, especially larger or richer meals, with water. Follow the brand's serving size.
