You eat a normal meal — and twenty minutes later you’re unbuttoning your jeans. Not full. Not stuffed. Heavy. If that’s most days, the cause probably isn’t what you eat. It’s what your body can no longer break down.
The part of digestion nobody talks about
Your body digests food with enzymes — specialised proteins that split proteins, fats and carbohydrates into pieces small enough to absorb. Enzyme output naturally declines with age. When it does, food isn’t fully broken down, and the leftovers settle in the lower gut.
What happens to undigested food
Gut bacteria ferment whatever is left behind. Fermentation produces gas — that’s the bloat — plus by-products linked to breath and body odour and dull-looking skin. Worse: even the vitamins and supplements you take can’t be absorbed without enzymes to unlock them, so they feed the fermentation instead of your cells.
Why “eat less” doesn’t fix it
Portion size isn’t the problem — processing capacity is. That’s why smaller meals, food diaries and cutting whole food groups often make little difference to the heaviness. The breakdown step itself needs support.
Supporting digestion at the root
Broad-spectrum digestive enzymes — covering proteins, fats and the full range of carbohydrates (including the fibre and bean sugars most people struggle with) — help meals break down properly in the first place. Complete breakdown means less residue, less fermentation, less gas.
That’s the mechanism behind SPIRO Plus: 17 digestive enzymes active across pH 3–9, paired with dual spirulina and chlorella CGF. You can read the full ingredient science on The Science page.
