You're more likely to benefit if: You feel heavy specifically after higher-fat meals (lipase may help with fat digestion) You get gas or bloating after dairy (lactase may help if lactose is the trigger) You notice predictable bloating after beans, certain vegetables, or starch-heavy meals (some blends include enzymes aimed at complex carbs) You can eat a small, protein-forward meal but feel uncomfortable when the protein is denser (protease support may help) A GLP-1-friendly way to interpret "success" is modest: less post-meal pressure, less burping, less gassiness, and a smoother digestion experience
Dual and triple agonists Tirzepatide is the first dual GIP/GLP-1 receptor agonist
