It's useful and it's fast, and it does nothing about \u003cstrong\u003ewhy the gas formed\u003c\/strong\u003e. This formula works further upstream, on breakdown, motility, and muscle tension, which is a slower and broader approach.

Enzyme support matters most when \u003cstrong\u003edigestion is under strain\u003c\/strong\u003e — larger meals, richer meals, eating quickly, eating under stress, or the natural decline in enzyme output that comes with age.
