Bloating has a handful of usual suspects. Work through this quick checklist to narrow yours down.
1. Is it tied to specific foods?
If beans, dairy or cruciferous veg reliably set it off, you likely lack the specific enzymes to break them down (lactase, α-galactosidase, cellulase).
2. Is it every meal, regardless of food?
Across-the-board heaviness points upstream — to overall digestive capacity rather than one trigger.
3. Did probiotics or fibre make it worse?
A telling sign. If the gut environment is not digesting well, extra fibre just ferments. Enzymes first, then probiotics can settle.
4. Is it worse with age or stress?
Both reduce natural enzyme output.
What to do next
If your answers point to food-specific or across-the-board digestion, broad-spectrum enzymes are the logical first step — they cover protein, fat and carbohydrate in one go.

Frequently asked questions
How do I know if bloating is from enzymes?
If it happens after most meals or specifically with beans/dairy/fibre, low enzyme capacity is a likely factor.
Should I take probiotics or enzymes first?
Enzymes first — a well-digested gut gives probiotics an environment to settle into.
