Episode Summary
Feeling bloated or gassy after healthy meals? You might be missing a key player: digestive enzymes. In this episode of Becoming Natural, I dive deep into how these powerful proteins help break down your food, why you may be running low, and how to naturally support your digestion without overdoing it.
Here’s what we’ll unpack together:
What digestive enzymes are and how they work

- What to look for in a high-quality enzyme supplement
- Real-life ways to rebuild your body’s enzyme power naturally
You’ll also hear how just a matter of a few years ago, we supported digestion without capsules and how small, intentional shifts—like chewing, raw foods, and bitters—can restore your gut’s natural function.
