Eat the dinner. Skip the aftermath.
8PM™ is a six-enzyme complex — protease, bromelain, papain, lipase, lactase, and alpha-galactosidase — taken with meals to support your body's breakdown of the foods behind occasional bloating.* Every enzyme named. Every dose on the label.
Gas-X breaks up the bubbles. It was never designed to stop them forming.
Simethicone — the ingredient in Gas-X — is an anti-foaming agent. Its job is to merge small gas bubbles into bigger ones so they pass more easily. Useful. Also, by definition, late: the gas already exists.
Antacids miss in a different direction. They neutralize stomach acid — but that heavy, distended, post-dinner feeling usually starts further down, in the intestines, where the harder parts of a meal arrive incompletely broken down. The lactose in the cream sauce. The oligosaccharides in beans, onions, broccoli. Dense proteins, rich fats. What your own enzymes don't finish, your gut bacteria ferment. Fermentation makes gas. Gas makes 8:47pm.
Digestive enzymes work upstream of all of that. Taken with a meal, they support your body's own breakdown of food while it's still food — before it becomes a negotiation.*
Americans experienced bloating in the past week¹
¹ US national survey data, Clinical Gastroenterology and Hepatology (2023): ~14% of adults reported bloating in the past 7 days, ~30% within the past month. *These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.

HOW IT WORKS
A with-the-meal ritual, in three steps.
Named for the heavy-dinner hour. Built for every meal.
-
Before the meal
One capsule with each of your two biggest meals — with the meal or just before it. For most people that's lunch and the 8pm dinner that earned this product its name.
-
Enzymes work on the meal itself
Enzymes work while you eat — supporting your body's own breakdown of food while it's still food, before it becomes a negotiation.*
-
A ritual, not a rescue
Take it daily and the question stops being "can I risk the beans" and starts being "which beans." No cycling, no loading phase — just dinner, followed by an evening.

WHAT'S IN IT, EXACTLY
Six enzymes. Each one named, dosed, and there for a reason.
Vegetarian capsules. Made in the USA. Bromelain and papain are derived from pineapple and papaya — worth knowing if you're sensitive to either.
6
named enzymes per capsule
Every dose on the label, in the standard enzyme activity units — verbatim from the Supplement Facts panel. No hiding behind a single milligram number — activity units disclosed for every enzyme.
Makzyme-Pro™ Enzyme Blend
2500 HUT / 400 mgProtease blend with Lactobacillus cultures — works on proteins.
Bromelain
90 GDUFrom pineapple — works on proteins.
Papain
2670 TUFrom papaya — works on proteins.
Fungal Lipase

600 LACUBreaks down lactose — the sugar in dairy that many adults process poorly.*
Alpha-Galactosidase
300 GALUThe enzyme humans don't make — breaks down the complex sugars in beans, onions, and cruciferous vegetables.*
HUT, GDU, TU, FIP, LACU and GALU are standard enzyme activity units — enzymes are dosed by what they do, not just what they weigh.

What the research actually says.
Digestive enzymes do their work in the meal itself — breaking proteins, fats, lactose and gas-forming sugars into smaller pieces your body handles more comfortably.*
Ianiro et al., Curr Drug Metab (2016) — digestive enzyme supplementation review
Alpha-galactosidase taken with gas-forming foods reduced occasional gas and bloating in randomized, placebo-controlled trials.*
Ganiats et al., J Fam Pract (1994); Di Nardo et al., Aliment Pharmacol Ther (2013)
Supplemental lactase supports the digestion of dairy in people who don't make enough of their own — one of the best-established uses in the enzyme category.*
Montalto et al., World J Gastroenterol (2006); EFSA approved lactase health claim (2011)
HUT, GDU, FIP, LACU and GALU are standardized FCC activity units — they measure what an enzyme does, not just what it weighs. All six are printed on our label.
Food Chemicals Codex (FCC) enzyme activity standards

How 8PM™ works, in eight seconds.
Enzymes work on the meal itself — before it becomes a negotiation.*
What the drugstore aisle was actually built for.
| Criteria | 8PM™ | The old answers |
|---|---|---|
| What it is | Six digestive enzymes, named and dosed* | An anti-foaming agent, an acid neutralizer, or a shrinking list of safe foods |
| Built for | Supporting the breakdown of food during the meal* | After the gas already exists |
| Where it works | Where the heavy feeling usually starts — the breakdown of the meal itself* | The stomach, mostly. Bloating usually starts further down |
| When it's taken | With dinner, before the problem | At 8:47pm, mid-negotiation |
| The menu | You keep the beans, the dairy, the second helping | The "safe list" gets shorter every month |
| The relationship | A daily ritual | A drawer full of just-in-case |

8PM™ is for you if…
It's probably not for you if…
Each enzyme, named and dosed.
No hiding behind a single milligram number — activity units disclosed for every enzyme. Here is the entire roster and what each one does. Vegetarian capsules. Made in the USA. (Bromelain and papain are derived from pineapple and papaya — worth knowing if you're sensitive to either.)
The one to know: alpha-galactosidase is the enzyme humans don't make — the reason beans have a reputation. It breaks down the complex sugars your gut bacteria would otherwise ferment.* Lactase does the same job for dairy.* The rest of the roster covers proteins and fats, so the formula isn't guessing about what you ordered.
Why we made 8PM™
"We didn't want a drawer full of just-in-case. We wanted the thing you take with dinner so 8:47 stops being part of your evening. Six named enzymes, every dose on the label, at a price that makes it easy to never run out."
— The VieBoost TeamRated by people who used to know 8:47pm personally.
Actually works without the groggy hangover
I've tried melatonin gummies, magnesium sprays, even prescription stuff. Everything either did nothing or left me feeling like I'd been hit by a bus the next morning. This is the first thing that's actually helped me fall asleep faster without that foggy 9am feeling. Three weeks in and I'm not checking the clock at 2am anymore.
Finally sleeping through the night
My sleep fell apart after my second kid was born. Tried everything from blackout curtains to white noise machines. This is the only thing that's made a real difference. Taste is fine, mixes easily, no weird aftertaste like some magnesium products.
Good, took about a week to notice
Didn't expect miracles on night one and didn't get them, but by day 5-6 I noticed I was falling asleep quicker and not waking up as much. Docking one star only because I wish the tub was bigger for the price, but I'll be reordering.
Recommended by my PT, glad I listened
My personal trainer mentioned magnesium glycinate for recovery and sleep and I found this brand through a mate. Genuinely didn't think a supplement could make this much difference to how rested I feel training days. Sleep quality up, recovery noticeably better.
No more melatonin dependency
I was on melatonin for about 8 months and started worrying about relying on it long-term. Switched to this and honestly slept better within the first few nights. Feels like a “real” solution rather than knocking myself out.
Great for shift work
Work rotating shifts and my sleep schedule has been a mess for years. This has helped me actually wind down when I get home from a night shift instead of lying there wired. Not a magic fix for shift work in general but a solid tool in the kit.
My wife stole the tub, ordering two now
Bought this for myself after a stressful few months at work. My partner tried it “just to see” and now we're both hooked. Subtle, no groggy feeling, just properly restful sleep. Ordering a second tub so we stop fighting over it.
Skeptical at first, converted now
I'm generally skeptical of supplement brands and their claims. Did my research on magnesium glycinate specifically (as opposed to cheaper oxide forms) before buying, and the sourcing here checked out. Three months in, sleep has genuinely improved and no gut issues like I got from other magnesium forms.
Helped with the 3am wake-ups
The name is accurate — that's exactly when I used to wake up and struggle to get back to sleep. Since taking this consistently for about a month, those wake-ups have become far less frequent, and when they do happen, I fall back asleep much faster.
Solid product, wish delivery was faster
Product itself is 5 stars, sleep quality noticeably improved after about 10 days of consistent use. Only reason for 4 stars is my order took a bit longer to arrive than expected. Will reorder regardless.
Non-negotiable part of my evening routine now
Take this about 30 minutes before bed with a bit of water and it's become as automatic as brushing my teeth. Genuinely can tell the difference on nights I forget — takes longer to drop off and I wake up more during the night.
Best sleep I've had in years, no exaggeration
I run my own business so my brain doesn't switch off easily at night. This has been the first thing to actually quiet that down. Falling asleep faster, staying asleep, waking up clear-headed instead of needing three coffees to function.
The 60-Day Guarantee

How the subscription works
Fair questions, answered
The name is the hour, not the instruction. Take one capsule with each of your two biggest meals — for most people, lunch and dinner. Enzymes work alongside the food, so with the meal beats after it.
Different job entirely. Simethicone merges gas bubbles that already exist; antacids neutralize stomach acid. 8PM™ is enzymes — it supports your body's breakdown of the meal itself, upstream of both.* Nothing in the bottle is a drug, and it isn't a substitute for one.
It's built as a daily ritual. You can absolutely keep it for the pasta nights, but meals are daily, so digestion support works best the same way. Sixty capsules is exactly one month at two a day — the math is not a coincidence.
The formula includes lactase, the enzyme that breaks down lactose — the sugar in dairy that many adults process poorly.* It also includes alpha-galactosidase, the enzyme for the complex sugars in beans, onions, and broccoli. If you have a dairy allergy (as opposed to trouble digesting it), this is not the answer — allergies are a different mechanism entirely.
8PM™ is formulated for occasional bloating after meals — the heavy-dinner kind. It is not a treatment for any medical condition. If your symptoms are frequent, painful, or getting worse, that's a conversation for your doctor, not a supplement label. Genuinely — go.
Pregnant or nursing mothers, children under 18, and anyone with a known medical condition or taking medication should consult a physician before use. The capsules are vegetarian (hypromellose) and the formula is free of dairy, gluten and soy — but bromelain and papain come from pineapple and papaya — if you're sensitive to either fruit, check with your doctor first.
On the monthly plan a fresh bottle ships every 30 days; the 60- and 90-day plans ship two or three bottles at once, matched to your usage — 60 capsules, one month exactly. You'll get an email reminder 3 days before each renewal. Skip, pause, or cancel anytime from your account in two clicks, or just reply to any email from us. No minimum commitment, no cancellation fees.
Then it costs you nothing. Use 8PM™ with your meals for up to 60 days; if dinners aren't ending better, email us and we'll refund your order in full — no return shipping, no forms, no interrogation.
Eat the dinner. Skip the aftermath.
