Loomis Enzymes Ultra BDG Review

High-fiber diets generally contribute to improved regularity and reduced discomfort, as they promote bowel movements, enhance gas absorption, and support the fermentation of fiber by gut bacteria. However, some may experience increased gas production when transitioning to a high-fiber diet. Ultra BDG helps support the digestive system during times of high fiber intake. The product is presented under the heading Fiber Digestion. The formula includes alpha-Galactosidase, an enzyme that breaks down complex carbohydrates found in beans, legumes, and cruciferous vegetables, which the page says reduces gas and potential discomfort. It also includes carminative herbs such as fenugreek, turmeric, and black pepper, described as having long traditional use in easing occasional digestive symptoms. Marshmallow is listed for its mucilaginous properties to coat and soothe tissues. The enzyme blend is described as facilitating the breakdown of the encapsulated ingredients, converting them into nutrients that the body can absorb and use. A warning states that this product contains Buckthorn (Rhamnus frangula) and that users should read and follow directions carefully, not use it if they have or develop diarrhea, loose stools, or abdominal pain, and consult a physician if frequent diarrhea occurs. The page advises consulting a physician prior to use if pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or having a medical condition. The page states that these statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration and that the product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. The page lists the bottle size as 180 Capsules with SKU Ultra BDG 180. Price is hidden behind a login prompt, so no price or purchase details are shown.

No study has tested this exact formula for gallbladder support, fat digestion or comfort after meals. The largest part is a proprietary enzyme blend, so the amount of each enzyme is hidden. Small human studies suggest digestive enzymes can help break down food: in one placebo-controlled trial, an enzyme blend sped up food breakdown in the small intestine [1]. In people with poor fat absorption from pancreas problems, enzymes combined with bile-flow agents reduced fat in the stool [2]. In 15 people with long-term pancreas inflammation, enzymes sped up stomach emptying but did not improve gallbladder squeezing after a meal [3]. Turmeric here is below the curcumin dose studied. In people with fatty liver, curcumin lowered liver fat and shifted bile acids [4], but fat, not curcumin, drove the most gallbladder emptying in healthy adults [5]. Citrus bioflavonoids are below the dose that lowered a liver enzyme in liver disease [6]. Cumin, coriander and black pepper raised bile flow only in animals [7]. Fenugreek is a tiny amount compared with the animal studies that showed fewer gallstones [8]. Marshmallow, buckthorn and valerian have no studies for this goal. Animal and cell studies are never counted.

Biohacker Summary

Members Only9 of 10 recommend it
9 of 10 biohackers on our panel recommend it

Fenugreek, the main ingredient, gets a split verdict from the panel: of the seven who spoke about it, three recommend it, two are neutral and two warn. Those who recommend it point to blood sugar, with one suggesting soaking the seeds overnight and eating them before meals, and one also mentions it for period pain and its long use in traditional medicine. The two who warn say it has been disproven for boosting testosterone, and that it can leave one person feeling revved up and overly wired. The two neutral voices say it may affect testosterone but does not help the area most people need. Turmeric is a smaller ingredient in this product, and many on the panel like it for joints and inflammation, usually paired with black pepper for absorption, though a few caution about oxalate, stopping before surgery, or low hormone sensitivity.

RAL Summary

Members OnlyTier 3 for Gallbladder and Fat Digestion

Tier 3 rests on 720 reviews with 93% positive, plus thin human support for the enzyme blend for digestion [1][2]. The fenugreek animal evidence counts for little because the product holds only a trace amount.

Where the evidence disagrees: 2 of the 23 human studies found no effect.

Body systems: Digestive system, Liver and gallbladder

Combine with: Loomis Enzymes Ultra BDG is a formula designed around bile and gallbladder support, which is generally understood to include ox bile or bile salts, lipase and other digestive enzymes (the exact blend is proprietary, so check the label). It pairs well with a broad-spectrum digestive enzyme or a lipase-rich product taken with meals to improve fat breakdown. Phosphatidylcholine or lecithin, and taurine, support bile composition and bile acid conjugation. Milk thistle (silymarin), artichoke leaf extract and dandelion root can support liver function and bile flow. Betaine HCl or digestive bitters may help the upstream digestive cascade if stomach acid is low. Fat-soluble vitamins (A, D, E, K) or omega-3s may be useful if fat absorption has been poor. Those with gallstones, bile duct obstruction, or on bile-acid binders or meds should consult a clinician first, since bile-stimulating products can cause pain in obstruction.

Possible side effects: No major side effects reported.
