Digest & Restore Protocol: For Slowed Digestion
The Digest & Restore Protocol targets the digestive side of GLP-1 use: fiber and magnesium for regularity, digestive enzymes for post-meal heaviness, and a probiotic for stool consistency and gas. Choose this if digestion — not fatigue or muscle — is your main complaint.
Slowed gastric emptying is the point of the medication. The trade-off is a gut that behaves very differently than it used to: meals that sit, gas that builds, and a bowel pattern that has gone from predictable to unpredictable.
This protocol addresses each of those with a tool that matches the mechanism, rather than throwing a laxative at all of it.
- Fiber and magnesium for regularity
- Digestive enzymes for the meal-sitting-in-your-chest feeling
- A probiotic for stool consistency and gas over four to six weeks
- One monthly delivery, one clear daily schedule
Who this is for
- Constipation that hasn't resolved with water alone
- Bloating and gas that got noticeably worse after starting or increasing a dose
- Meals that feel like they're still there hours later
- Stool consistency that swings between hard and loose
How each piece works
- Fiber adds bulk and holds water in stool, making it easier to move through a slowed intestine
- Magnesium draws water into the bowel and relaxes intestinal muscle — evening dosing also supports sleep
- Digestive enzymes break down protein, fat, and carbohydrate alongside a meal that's emptying slowly
- A probiotic gradually shifts the gut environment that changed when your diet volume and composition changed
Your daily schedule
- With your largest meal: digestive enzymes at the start of the meal
- Mid-morning or mid-afternoon: fiber with a full 300–500 ml glass of water, away from other supplements
- Same time daily: probiotic
- Evening, before bed: magnesium glycinate
- After your largest meal: a 10–15 minute walk — free, and it measurably speeds transit
Ramping up without making bloating worse
The most common mistake is starting everything at full dose on day one. Fiber in particular needs a ramp: begin at roughly a third of the label dose, hold for a week, then build over two to three weeks.
If bloating increases rather than decreases after five to seven days, reduce the fiber dose instead of pushing through. The goal is a dose your gut tolerates every day, not the biggest dose you can manage once.
What to expect, and when
- Enzymes: noticeable meal by meal, from the first day
- Fiber and magnesium: typically three to seven days of consistent use
- Probiotic: four to six weeks — judge it on the month, not the week
- If severe pain, vomiting, or several days without a bowel movement occur, contact your prescriber rather than adjusting supplements
