Research Promise. Every benefit below is supported by human clinical studies indexed in the
National Institutes of Health (NIH) via PubMed, with full texts available in the
National Library of Medicine (NLM) PubMed Central, PMC when available. We also reference reviews from
leading health organizations and insights from top global universities to keep guidance aligned with credible science.*
Clinically Studied Benefits
• Helps break down dietary starches (carbohydrate digestion)* — Amylase contributes to starch hydrolysis in the human GI tract. (NIH/PubMed — Martens, 2022)
• Helps break down proteins (protein digestion)* — Proteases participate in gastric and intestinal protein breakdown in vivo. (NIH/PubMed — Minekus, 2022)
• Helps break down fats (fat digestion)* — Lipase supports dietary fat hydrolysis for absorption. (NIH/PMC — Iqbal, 2022)
• Helps digest lactose in dairy* — Lactase assists with lactose breakdown to reduce intolerance-related discomfort. (NIH/PubMed — He, 2020)
Additional / Promising Evidence*
• May ease occasional bloating/abdominal discomfort in pediatrics* — Pediatric enzyme blend studies suggest symptom improvements in small cohorts. (NIH/PubMed — Borali, 2021)
• May aid overall nutrient utilization* — Reviews discuss digestion–absorption relationships relevant to energy from food. (NIH/PMC — Sheng, 2024)
• May support gut barrier/microbiome context* — Digestive function interfaces with gut integrity and microbiota. (NIH/PMC — Lazar, 2021)
University / Academic Context*
• Gut–immune interactions (Harvard/NIH context)* — Reviews outline how digestive function relates to mucosal immunity. (NIH/PMC — Belkaid, 2020)
Global Evidence & Authoritative Reviews*
• Digestive health overview — NIH resources summarize digestive processes and enzyme roles. (NIH/NIDDK)
We monitor research from leading institutions — Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Mayo Clinic, Cleveland Clinic, Cambridge, Oxford, Stanford, Yale, Tufts, University of Florida, Oregon State University – Linus Pauling Institute, Columbia, Cornell, and more — to keep our guidance aligned with credible science.*
