For the patient who is bloated after eating anything — not after one trigger food, after everything. Seven plant enzymes covering carbohydrate, protein and fat, dosed to the meal rather than to the clock.
Bloating and heaviness after every meal often comes down to enzyme capacity — whether the body produces enough amylase, protease and lipase to finish breaking down what was eaten. Undigested food reaching the lower gut ferments and produces gas. Total Enzymes supplies seven plant enzymes covering carbohydrate, protein and fat.
When it happens after everything rather than after one food, the problem is usually not the food. It is the capacity to break it down.
Digestion is not one event. It is a sequence of chemical steps, each one run by a specific enzyme, and each one capable of running short. Carbohydrate needs amylase. Protein needs protease. Fat needs lipase. If any one of those steps runs at reduced capacity, the meal does not stop moving — it simply arrives at the next section of the gut less broken down than it should be.
That is where the familiar complaints come from. Heaviness that lands an hour or two after eating rather than immediately. Bloating that tracks with meal size rather than with any one food. Discomfort after fatty meals specifically. A sense that food is sitting rather than moving.
Undigested protein fragments reaching the lower gut are a recognized contributor to discomfort and to immune reactivity in sensitive individuals. The goal of enzyme support is straightforward: finish the job upstream, so that what arrives downstream is small enough to be absorbed rather than large enough to provoke.
Look at what the usual guidance says: eat slowly, eat smaller portions, go for a walk, drink water, avoid carbonated drinks. All of it is sound and none of it is wrong. Notice what every item on that list has in common — each one reduces the amount of food arriving at once, or helps move gas that has already formed.
In other words, the standard advice works around a capacity limit without ever naming it. The clearest statement of the mechanism comes from the National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases, which describes undigested carbohydrates passing to the large intestine where bacteria break them down and create gas. That is the enzyme step, described precisely, with the enzyme never mentioned.
Eating less is one way to stay inside a limited capacity. Supplying the enzymes is the other. Neither one is a substitute for a diagnosis if symptoms persist.
They are not, and almost nobody says so. The 60-count carries a 360 mg blend with lipase at 65 LU. The 120-count carries a lighter 146 mg blend with generally lower activity units, most notably lipase at 11 FIP.
Several online retailers currently list the 120-count bottle while displaying the 60-count blend figures. If you are titrating a dose, or if lipase is the enzyme that matters for your presentation, that difference is not academic. Verify which bottle is in your hand before assuming a capsule-for-capsule equivalence carries across sizes.
| Enzyme (60-count) | What it breaks down |
|---|---|
| Amylase, 4,500 DU | Starches and carbohydrates into simpler sugars. The primary carbohydrate-digesting enzyme in this blend. |
| Protease, 15,000 HUT | Protein into amino acids and smaller peptides. Undigested fragments are a recognized contributor to discomfort and immune reactivity. |
| Lipase, 65 LU | Dietary fat into fatty acids and glycerol. The enzyme behind the cholesterol support indexing — and the one that differs most between bottle sizes. |
| Invertase 25 INVU · Malt Diastase 150 DP | Sucrose and complex carbohydrate breakdown, extending amylase coverage. |
| Lactase, 200 LacU | A supporting amount within the broader blend, not a concentrated dedicated dose. Marked lactose intolerance needs a dedicated lactase product. |
| Cellulase, 60 CU | Plant fiber cell wall breakdown, releasing nutrients trapped within. |
| Chromium (chelate) 3 mcg · Beet root | Trace mineral cofactor and a whole-food base component. |
Plant enzymes work across a range of pH environments, which extends their activity along the length of the gastrointestinal tract rather than confining them to one stage.
Because the job scales with the load. A large or heavy meal presents more substrate than a light one, and a fixed daily capsule count ignores that entirely. The label figure is one capsule daily. The working range at Absolute Health is one to four capsules per meal, adjusted to the individual and the meal, with two at bedtime so the last meal of the day is not left unsupported overnight.
That range sits meaningfully above the label. It is active therapeutic use rather than baseline maintenance, and it belongs under a provider's direction rather than being self-escalated. The instruction that matters most: read the individual response rather than following a fixed number indefinitely.
General digestive support across all three macronutrient classes. Undigested food or bloating after meals. Cholesterol support indexing, where lipase is the directly relevant enzyme, since incompletely processed fat is handled differently than fat that has been properly broken down. Children and anyone unable to swallow a capsule, since it can be opened into food or liquid with no loss of effectiveness.
It also pairs. Where acid production and enzyme output are both limiting, it is used alongside Hypo-D — different steps in the same process. Where bile flow limits fat digestion specifically, GB-Plus complements rather than substitutes for the lipase here. Where barrier repair is a target alongside digestion, Total Leaky Gut runs with it.
Persistent digestive symptoms warrant proper medical evaluation. This supports digestive function generally; it does not replace obtaining a diagnosis for a specific condition. Recent abdominal surgery should be reviewed with the treating surgeon before use, given the general caution around proteolytic activity near healing tissue. And marked lactose intolerance needs a dedicated lactase product rather than the supporting amount present here.
Because the same organs are on both sides of the conversation, with specific segmental relationships. Vagal outflow to the entire gut — governing overall motility and secretion — routes through C1 to C2. The stomach and liver are supplied via greater splanchnic fibers from T5 to T9. The pancreas and duodenum, the organ this formula supplements enzymatically, via greater and lesser splanchnic from T6 to T10. The small intestine, the primary site of enzymatic breakdown and absorption, via lesser splanchnic from T9 to T12.
Supplementation supplies the enzymes. Restoring segmental motion changes the signal governing how much of its own the body produces and how well it moves what it has broken down.

People searching this question are often quietly frightened, and that deserves a direct answer rather than a sales page.
Bloating that is severe, persistent, or getting worse — particularly alongside unexplained weight loss, severe abdominal pain, persistent vomiting, blood in the stool, or feeling full after only a few bites — warrants medical evaluation rather than a supplement. Those are the situations where delay is the actual risk. Please see a physician, and do not let a product page talk you out of it.
What enzyme support is for is the ordinary picture: heaviness and gas that track with meal size, that have been going on a while, that nobody has found a structural cause for. That is a large group of people, and it is a different group.
Only if reduced enzyme capacity is what is limiting you. If it is, the mechanism is about as direct as supplementation gets and the effect tracks with the meal rather than building over weeks. If it is not, no amount of enzyme fixes it. That is why this page states plainly that the lactase content is supporting rather than dedicated, and why persistent symptoms need a diagnosis rather than a guess. You should know quickly whether this is your limiting factor — not after three bottles.
Then dose it that way. This is one of the few formulas where intermittent use makes complete sense — taken with the meal that causes trouble rather than on a daily schedule. Titrate to the meal, not the clock.

When it happens after everything rather than after specific foods, that points away from a single trigger food and toward capacity. Digestion is a sequence of chemical steps, each run by a specific enzyme — amylase for carbohydrate, protease for protein, lipase for fat. If any step runs short, the meal arrives at the lower gut less broken down than it should be, where bacteria ferment what is left and produce gas. The standard advice to eat slowly and eat less is sound, and it also works by reducing the load on the same limited capacity.
Nothing here is a fast fix, and it would be dishonest to present it as one. Walking, water and time are what actually move trapped gas in the moment. Enzyme support works differently — it is taken with the meal to reduce how much undigested material reaches the fermenting stage in the first place, which is prevention rather than relief. If you want quick relief tonight and fewer episodes next month, those are two different interventions.
Visible distension that severe is worth taking seriously rather than self-treating. It can come from significant gas volume, but it can also come from fluid, from delayed gastric emptying, or from causes that need imaging rather than a supplement. If distension is severe, persistent, painful, or comes with unexplained weight loss, vomiting or blood in the stool, that warrants medical evaluation first. Enzyme support is for the ordinary post-meal heaviness picture, not for this one.
Not necessarily, and the phrase covers too much ground to be useful. Bloating after a large or rushed meal is normal physiology. Bloating after everything you eat suggests something is limiting — that could be enzyme capacity, bacterial overgrowth, motility, a specific intolerance, or a structural issue. Those need different answers. Enzymes address exactly one of them, which is why persistent symptoms warrant a diagnosis rather than a guess.
No, and this is the most important thing to know about this product. The 60-count carries a 360 mg proprietary blend with lipase at 65 LU. The 120-count carries a lighter 146 mg blend with generally lower activity units, most notably lipase at 11 FIP. They are not interchangeable capsule for capsule. Several online retailers list the 120-count bottle showing the 60-count blend figures, which is incorrect. Check which bottle is in your hand before assuming a dose carries over.
The label says one capsule daily. In practice at Absolute Health the working range is one to four capsules per meal, titrated to the individual and to the size of the meal, plus two at bedtime to support digestion of the last meal overnight. That is meaningfully above the label figure and is active therapeutic use rather than baseline maintenance, so it belongs under a provider's direction. Dr. Frazier's rule is to titrate to the meal, not to the clock — a large meal gets more capsules than a light one.
Yes. Open it and empty the contents into food or liquid. This does not reduce enzyme effectiveness at all — the capsule is only a delivery vehicle. This is how it is given to children and to anyone who cannot swallow a capsule. Children under 12 take a reduced dose, adjusted for size and presentation rather than a fixed fraction of the adult amount.
