This is built for fat digestion — the kind of support you look for after gallbladder removal or when fatty meals leave you uncomfortable. Its clearest active is **Ox Bile** at 200mg, which sits inside the 100–500mg range typically used on OTC labels to help you break down and absorb dietary fat. Worth knowing up front: that range comes from empirical use in fat-malabsorption cases, not large RCTs in healthy adults, so treat it as reasonable rather than proven.

The capsule also delivers pancreatic enzymes — protease, amylase, and lipase — to help you digest protein, carbs, and fat. These are reported in USP activity units, the pharmaceutical standard for pancreatic enzymes, which is a different measurement system than the food-enzyme ranges used to define effective OTC doses, so there's no clean way to map them to a studied dose. The 250 million LCU of adenosine triphosphate is similarly hard to place: ATP's clinical research uses a 400mg dose for athletic performance, not digestion, so its role in this formula is unclear.

This makes the most sense if you're managing fat digestion specifically — for instance after gallbladder removal — rather than looking for broad digestive coverage. The label has you take one capsule before your biggest meal, and the directions suggest pairing it with a separate full-spectrum enzyme product to round out everyday digestion.
