Digestive enzyme supplements
Digestive aid. Break down food in the intestine. Destroyed during digestion or act locally. No direct brain effect — does not cross the blood–brain barrier.
Benefits
Provide enzymes (lipase, protease, amylase) that can ease bloating and aid digestion—essential in true pancreatic insufficiency.
Risks
Unnecessary for most people with normal digestion; can cause GI upset and mask conditions that need diagnosis. Prescription pancreatic enzymes require medical supervision.
