Digestion Supplement Benefits

Live Bacterial Cultures

Our probiotics contain specific strains of live bacteria, measured in CFU (colony-forming units). Each capsule delivers billions of these cultures, formulated to survive stomach acid and reach the intestines.

Dietary Fibre Support

Fibre supplements like inulin provide a concentrated source of prebiotic fibre. Chicory inulin contributes to normal bowel function by increasing stool frequency.¹ One serving can deliver several grams of soluble fibre to complement your diet.

Digestive Enzyme Blends

Our enzyme formulations combine different types to target various macronutrients. These include proteases for protein, amylases for carbohydrates, and lipases for fats, working alongside your body's natural digestive processes.

Convenient Daily Formats

Choose from easy-to-swallow capsules, flavoured gummies, or unflavoured powders that mix into water or smoothies. Each format delivers the same core ingredients, just packaged for different preferences and lifestyles.

FAQs

What are gut health supplements?

Gut health supplements are nutritional products designed to complement your digestive system. They typically contain probiotics (live bacterial cultures), prebiotics (fibre that feeds beneficial bacteria), digestive enzymes, or combinations of these ingredients. Our range includes capsules, gummies, and powders formulated by Myprotein's expert nutritionists.

What's the difference between probiotics and prebiotics?

Probiotics are live bacterial cultures measured in CFU (colony-forming units) that you ingest directly. Prebiotics are types of fibre that serve as food for the bacteria already living in your gut. Many people use both - probiotics to introduce specific strains and prebiotics like inulin to support them. Some of our products combine both in a single formula.

How do digestive enzyme supplements work?

Digestive enzymes are proteins that help break down different macronutrients. Proteases work on proteins, amylases on carbohydrates, and lipases on fats. Our enzyme blends contain multiple types to target different food components. People typically take them with meals to complement their body's natural digestive processes.

What does CFU mean on probiotic labels?

CFU stands for colony-forming units, which measures the number of viable bacteria cells in a probiotic supplement. Higher CFU counts mean more live bacteria per dose. Our Daily Probiotic contains 10 billion CFU per capsule, whilst different products may offer varying amounts depending on their formulation.

Can I take digestive supplements with other vitamins?

Most people incorporate digestive supplements alongside their regular vitamin routine without issues. Probiotics and digestive enzymes work through different mechanisms than standard vitamins and minerals. That said, spacing out different supplements throughout the day can make your routine more manageable.

What's inulin and why is it in these supplements?

Inulin is a type of soluble fibre extracted from chicory root. Chicory inulin contributes to normal bowel function by increasing stool frequency.¹ It serves as a prebiotic, providing fuel for beneficial bacteria in your gut. You'll find it in our dedicated Inulin Powder or as part of comprehensive gut health formulas.

How should I store probiotic supplements?

Most shelf-stable probiotics should be kept in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Check your specific product label, as some formulations require refrigeration whilst others use stability technology that allows room temperature storage. Proper storage helps maintain the viability of live cultures until the expiry date.

What's the difference between your gut supplement formats?

Capsules offer precise dosing and are easy to swallow with water. Gummies provide a tastier option without the need for swallowing pills. Powders mix into drinks or smoothies and allow flexible dosing. All formats deliver similar core ingredients - the choice comes down to personal preference and convenience.

Who developed these digestion supplements?

All products in our digestion range were formulated by Myprotein's expert nutritionists. They've designed each supplement to deliver specific ingredients in effective formats, from single-ingredient options like pure inulin powder to comprehensive blends combining probiotics, enzymes, and botanical extracts.

Should I take digestion supplements every day?

Most people use these supplements as part of their daily routine for consistency. Probiotics in particular work best when taken regularly, as the beneficial bacteria need ongoing replenishment. Follow the serving suggestions on your chosen product and maintain a consistent schedule that fits your lifestyle.
