What You Need to Know Before You Apply

What is the purpose of this trial?

This study aims to investigate the effect of two digestive enzyme dietary supplements, THRIVE4U™ TG Lipase and THRIVE4U™ Spectrum Lipases in supporting the breakdown of fat after a meal. The first dietary supplement, THRIVE4U™ TG Lipase, contains a single lipase while the other, THRIVE4U™ Spectrum Lipases, contains a blend of lipases. Lipase breaks down fats to allow your body to efficiently absorb it from food. Poor digestion of fat can cause gastrointestinal symptoms and can impact quality of life. By improving the digestion of fats from high-fat foods, the lipase(s) may help reduce discomfort and support overall digestive health.
