‘The missing piece’ — User says this $18 digestion hack helped them shed over 15 pounds

Shoppers say they’ve discovered a new digestion hack, and some claim it has been helping them shed pounds, too.

The supplement gaining traction is Physician’s Choice Digestive Enzymes, a blend of digestive enzymes, prebiotics and probiotics designed to “promote digestive function in the gut.”

Per the brand, the formula contains three soil-based probiotic strains selected for their ability to survive in the gut, along with organic prebiotics intended to support the growth of beneficial bacteria. A one-month supply retails for around $17 on Amazon.

The brand suggests taking just one pill during mealtime. According to several users, the reported benefits include less bloating and gas, more regular and easier bowel movements and even weight loss.

“After taking these pills for two weeks I feel better than I’ve felt in months,” one reviewer, who was previously dealing with various health issues, shared.

“Eating isn’t painful, I can tolerate food now, I mentally have an appetite, and I’ve also lost 16 pounds after two weeks,” they continued.

It’s not just the glowing costumer reviews backing their effects. While probiotics aren’t considered a proven weight-loss treatment, the research around their benefits is still quite promising.

A systematic review on probiotics found evidence of a trend toward preventing weight gain and modestly reducing body weight in some people with overweight or obesity.

“I take one after my biggest meal. It’s like your food was digested so good your bowel movements will be solid, easy, and no bloating,” another reviewer noted. “I feel like a kid again.”

The Physician’s Choice formula is made in made in the U.S. under strict quality-control standards and is third-party tested for purity and potency. As with any supplement, be sure to consult your physician before use.
