Lact Enz by Standard Process: Digestion Support, Gut Balance, Daily Care
I use Lact-Enz often in both my human and pet nutrition plans because it brings together two things most people need more of: digestive enzymes and probiotics. When your gut works well, your whole body feels better. In this guide, I will walk you through how Lact-Enz works, what is in it, who can benefit, and how to use it safely.
What Is Lact-Enz
Lact-Enz is a blend of enzymes and probiotics designed to support healthy digestion. Enzymes help break down proteins, fats, and carbohydrates. Probiotics help balance the gut microbiome. Together, they support smoother digestion, better nutrient absorption, and a calmer, more comfortable gut.

Key Benefits of Lact-Enz
Here is what I see most often in people who take Lact-Enz:
-
Better digestion after meals
-
Less bloating or gas
-
Improved nutrient absorption
-
A more balanced gut microbiome
-
Gentle, daily support for the digestive tract
How the formula works
Rice bran
Provides dietary fiber that supports gut movement and acts as a gentle prebiotic.
Enzymes: amylase, protease, cellulase, lipase
Each one works on a different category of nutrients.
Amylase: breaks down carbohydrates.
Protease: breaks down proteins.
Cellulase: breaks down plant fibers.
Lipase: breaks down fats.
Probiotics: Bifidobacterium longum and Lactobacillus acidophilus
These beneficial bacteria help restore balance in the gut, support regularity, and promote a healthy immune system.
These ingredients work together to help your body break down food more efficiently and use nutrients more effectively.
How I Use Lact-Enz in Practice
I reach for Lact-Enz when someone needs gentle digestive support without harsh stimulants or irritants. Here are common situations where it helps:
When digestion feels sluggish
Meals may sit heavy, cause bloating, or feel hard to digest.
When someone feels low energy after eating
Slow digestion can lead to poor absorption of nutrients.
When gut balance needs support
The probiotics in Lact-Enz help restore healthier gut activity.
During stressful periods
Stress directly affects digestion and the microbiome. Lact-Enz can help maintain stability.
Lact-Enz is not meant to replace medical care for chronic digestive disease, but it can be a valuable tool for everyday digestive support.
