Maxi Enzymes and Probiotics for complete daily digestive comfort
Slow digestion, bloating after every meal, a swollen belly, irregular transit, or post-meal heaviness that weighs you down in the afternoon?
These discomforts are among the most common and overlooked issues. They often indicate an imbalance between the digestive resources available and what the body needs to process. Essence Pure Maxi Enzymes + Probiotics provides a complete and simultaneous solution on both fronts: 18 digestive enzymes of microbial and plant origin to break down food as soon as it reaches the intestine, and 9 stabilized probiotic strains (400 million CFU) to sustainably rebalance the intestinal flora. As a bonus, it contains prebiotic fructo-oligosaccharides (FOS) to nourish these beneficial bacteria and accelerate their implantation.
One formula, three complementary levers of action. Available in 40-capsule (starter or maintenance course) and 80-capsule (full 2-month course) formats.
Why combine digestive enzymes and probiotics?
Digestive enzymes and probiotics act at two different but complementary stages of digestion. Enzymes work upstream, in the small intestine, to break down macronutrients into absorbable molecules. Probiotics act downstream, in the colon, to balance bacterial flora and reduce residual fermentation. Acting on only one of these two levels leaves the other without support.
With age, chronic stress, antibiotics, and an ultra-processed diet, digestive enzyme production tends to decrease naturally. Partially broken-down food then reaches the colon in the form of fermentable substrates: this is precisely what generates gas, bloating, and discomfort. The complex's 18 enzymes cover all macronutrients and many fibers, significantly reducing this fermentable load upstream.
ProbioAct Technology: probiotics that survive until they reach the colon
The main challenge for probiotic capsules is survival in the acidic environment of the stomach. The ProbioAct technology used by Essence Pure encapsulates the 9 bacterial strains in a protective matrix that allows them to pass through the stomach intact and reach the colon alive and active. This guarantees the advertised 400 million CFU at the moment of intestinal colonization, not at the time of manufacture.
The 18 digestive enzymes: complete coverage of macronutrients
The enzymatic complex covers all dietary substrates:
- Carbohydrates: amylase, glucoamylase, invertase, alpha-galactosidase, hemicellulase, pectinase, phytase
- Proteins: protease 4.5, protease 3.0, protease 6.0, papain, bromelain, peptidase
- Lipids: lipase
- Lactose: lactase
- Plant fibers: cellulase, xylanase, beta-glucanase
All enzymes are dosed in FCC (Food Chemical Codex) units, the international reference standard for enzymatic activity.
The 9 ProbioAct probiotic strains
The mixture of 9 active lactic ferments (400 million CFU per dose) covers both the Lactobacillus genus (colonization of the small intestine) and the Bifidobacterium genus (colonization of the colon), for a complete rebalancing of the entire intestinal microbiota.

Daily benefits
Reduction of bloating and gas
The enzymes alpha-galactosidase, hemicellulase, and cellulase break down fermentable fibers (legumes, cruciferous vegetables, grains) before they reach the colon. Less fermentable substrate means less gas produced and less bloating. The effect is generally noticeable from the very first doses taken during a meal.
Improved digestion of proteins, fats, and sugars
The complex of 5 proteases covers a wide pH spectrum (3.0, 4.5, 6.0), ensuring effective proteolysis in all segments of the small intestine. Lipase improves the digestion of dietary fats, especially in individuals with a weakened pancreas. Lactase allows lactose-intolerant individuals to consume dairy products with greater comfort.
Rebalancing of the intestinal microbiota
The 9 probiotic strains, protected by ProbioAct technology, durably colonize the entire intestinal microbiota (small intestine and colon). The FOS and inulin included in the formula serve as a preferred substrate for these beneficial bacteria, accelerating their implantation and multiplication.
Support after antibiotic therapy
Antibiotics indiscriminately destroy both pathogenic and beneficial bacteria in the microbiota. Taking Maxi Enzymes + Probiotics during and after a course of antibiotics helps to restore the balance of intestinal flora more quickly and limits common digestive side effects (diarrhea, fungal infections).
Overall digestive comfort and energy
Better digestion means better nutrient absorption, a lower fermentative load in the colon, and less low-grade intestinal inflammation. The result: less post-meal fatigue, a lighter belly, and a general sense of well-being often reported within the first few weeks of a regular course.
How to use this supplement?
Recommended dosage
Take 1 capsule at lunch and 1 capsule at dinner, at the beginning of the meal or during it, with a large glass of water. Taking it at the start of a meal optimizes the enzymatic action on the ingested food.
Which format to choose?
- 40 capsules: 20-day starter course or monthly maintenance course for those wanting occasional support
- 80 capsules: full 40-day course (2 months at 1 capsule/day), an ideal format for long-term treatment of chronic digestive discomfort or microbiota rebalancing
Recommended duration of the course
A 1 to 3-month course is recommended for lasting rebalancing of the microbiota. The enzymatic effect on bloating and post-meal discomfort is noticeable from the first doses. The probiotic benefits on flora balance and transit develop gradually over 3 to 6 weeks.
Who is this for?
- People suffering from bloating, gas, or heaviness after meals: immediate enzymatic action on colonic fermentation
- People with lactose intolerance or sensitivity to gluten: specific lactase and peptidases included
- People who have recently taken antibiotics: rapid restoration of the intestinal microbiota
- People over 50: digestive enzyme production naturally decreases with age
- People suffering from Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): reduction of fermentative load and rebalancing of the microbiota
- People under chronic stress: stress reduces enzyme production and unbalances intestinal flora
Essence Pure quality and commitments
- 18 FCC digestive enzymes: international standard, guaranteed and measurable enzymatic activity
- 9 ProbioAct probiotic strains: gastric protection technology, 400 million active CFU upon reaching the destination

FAQ - Essence Pure Maxi Enzymes + Probiotics
Why take digestive enzymes if the body produces them naturally?
Digestive enzyme production is optimal in healthy young adults. It decreases with age, due to chronic stress, a diet poor in fresh foods, or partial pancreatic insufficiency. When endogenous production is no longer sufficient to process food intake correctly, enzymatic supplementation helps compensate for this deficit and restore optimal digestive comfort.
What is ProbioAct technology and why is it important?
Most probiotics do not survive gastric acidity (pH of 1 to 3) and arrive dead or inactive in the colon. ProbioAct is a microencapsulation technology that protects bacteria in a matrix resistant to gastric acid. The advertised 400 million CFU correspond to the active CFU after passing through the stomach, not the initial quantity put into the capsule.
Can these capsules be taken during a course of antibiotics?
Yes, but space the doses at least 2 to 3 hours apart from the antibiotic to prevent it from destroying the probiotic bacteria before they have had a chance to colonize the intestine. Taking probiotics in the evening, after the day's last dose of antibiotics, is often recommended.
Is the included lactase enough for lactose-intolerant individuals?
The lactase in Maxi Enzymes provides 1,263 ALU per 2-capsule dose, which is sufficient activity to improve digestive comfort when consuming dairy products in moderate quantities. For severe intolerances, supplementation with higher doses of lactase alone may be necessary. Maxi Enzymes remains useful as a supplement to cover all other enzymes.
Is this supplement suitable for vegetarians or vegans?
Yes, completely. The capsule is made of 100% vegetable HPMC (hypromellose). The enzymes are of microbial and plant origin (pineapple bromelain, papaya papain), with no animal-derived raw materials in the main formula.
Which format should I choose between 40 and 80 capsules?
The 40-capsule format is ideal for a 20-day trial course (2 capsules/day) or for light monthly maintenance (1 capsule/day). The 80-capsule format is best suited for a full 40-day basic course at the standard dosage, or for 80 days at 1 capsule/day, which is recommended for chronic digestive disorders or deep rebalancing of the microbiota.
