The Science Behind Cheater Eater and Gas Prevention
Cheater Eater™ tackles the root causes of gas and bloating by optimizing the digestive process. Our proprietary blend of pancreatic enzymes—including amylases, proteases, and lipases—facilitates the thorough breakdown of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats. Efficient digestion reduces the amount of undigested food reaching the colon, where it can be fermented by gut bacteria, producing gas as a byproduct.^(1^) The inclusion of betaine hydrochloride (HCl) increases gastric acidity, promoting optimal enzyme activity and aiding in protein digestion, which further minimizes undigested food particles.^(2^) Ox bile extract enhances the emulsification and absorption of dietary fats, preventing fat malabsorption that can contribute to bloating and gas.^(3^) Clinical studies have demonstrated that supplementing with digestive enzymes can significantly alleviate symptoms like bloating and gas in individuals with digestive discomfort.^(4^) By supporting comprehensive digestion, Cheater Eater™ helps prevent gas formation and promotes overall digestive well-being.
