简要总结
Flatter Me is a product that includes digestive enzymes in a way to support digestion of macronutrients and their constituents and provides herbs traditionally used for digestive health support. This trial aims to test Flatter Me against a placebo pill to examine differences in both subjective outcomes (feelings of bloating and indigestion) and changes in waist circumference (abdominal distension) after eating a test meal.
