We know it’s hard to find clean skincare + nutrition for sensitive skin.

That’s why we’ve crafted products for you that are formulated with purpose so you can start rebuilding healthier, happier, calmer skin.

Our products are based on research AND the experience of our founder Jennifer Fugo, MS, CNS, LDN as a clinical nutritionist working with thousands of sensitive skin warriors.

Jennifer’s philosophy is simple — to best support your sensitive skin, you must take an outside-in AND inside-out approach.

Now that you’re ready to ditch the mass-produced, skin-irritating, petrochemical-filled dry skin products from big box stores, the DermaQuell skincare line is an excellent choice. Especially because of our natural formulas crafted to hydrate, nourish + support dry, itchy, sensitive skin.

Every DermaQuell product is crafted in the USA in small batches in a woman-owned + operated GMP-compliant facility that prioritizes sustainable sourcing, fair trade + cruelty-free business practices. We go the extra mile to ensure the appropriate quality control for every batch by doing third-party testing to guarantee safety + stability.

NutraQuell supplements support your body + skin from within based on Jennifer’s many years of clinical nutrition experience working directly with people all over the world dealing with sensitive skin challenges.

Sourcing clean, effective ingredients to craft NutraQuell supplements in GMP-compliant US-based facilities is a top priority — as well as making sure the products are...

✓ Safe and contain what's listed on the label

✓ Free from the allergens listed for each product

✓ Third-party tested

We've done the legwork so that you don't have to!

This is what sets the Quell Essentials skincare + supplements apart from other brands, helping you to support your health with products you can trust that are made with you + your unique sensitive skin in mind.

Looking for an enzyme-only digestive aid?

Digest Aid is a great option that relies on a broad spectrum of digestive enzymes to support optimal digestion of protein, fats, carbs and other sugars and starches found in food. Poor digestion of food may result in poor absorption of nutrients and may foster imbalances within the gut microbiome as the microbes there get access to your partially undigested food.

Digest Aid is great for those who are sensitive to betaine HCl and bile (since it doesn’t contain either). It is also a vegetarian supplement. This product is manufactured in a GMP certified facility.

There are 90 servings (90 capsules) per container.

FAQ

Does Digest Aid contain soy, dairy, gluten or shellfish?

Digest Aid is shellfish free. While there are no ingredients sourced from soy, dairy or gluten used in this product, they are not tested for at the finished good level. Therefore, we cannot guarantee that Digest Aid is soy, dairy or gluten free. 

Should I take Digest Aid with meals?

Yes, it’s best to take Digest Aid about 5 minutes before you start eating. However as long as you take it within the first 5 to 10 minutes of eating, it will still be helpful.

What is the best time of day to take Digest Aid?

Ideally, you should take Digest Aid 5 minutes before you start eating a meal, not a snack.

Can Digest Aid be taken every day?

Absolutely, with meals. No need to take it with a snack.

Is Digest Aid safe to take during pregnancy or while nursing?

If pregnant or nursing, consult your healthcare practitioner before taking this product.

Is Digest Aid vegan or vegetarian?

Technically yes, it is vegan, but our manufacturer does not do the testing required for the certification of that claim.

What is the difference between Digest Aid and Digest Aid Plus?

Digest Aid is a full-spectrum enzyme product with clinically significant levels of digestive enzymes. It does not contain any bile nor betaine HCl. Digest Aid Plus contains a smaller collection of enzymes in addition to ox bile and betaine HCl. So it is a more comprehensive digestive support, though it does contain animal-sourced ingredients (ie. ox bile).

If I don’t know if I have H. pylori, which digestive enzyme is better for me?

While we cannot give you tailored nutritional advice, Jennifer typically recommends using an enzyme-only formula like the Digest Aid if you fail the low stomach acid testing, but don’t know if H.pylori is an issue unless otherwise directed by your doctor or practitioner. The enzyme formula does not contain betaine HCl so it will not increase the acidity of your stomach unlike our more comprehensive digestive aid -- Digest Aid Plus which has both betaine HCl and ox bile.

Can Digest Aid be opened up if I can’t swallow pills?

Unfortunately, you cannot open Digest Aid capsules to sprinkle on food. 

Are there any allergy concerns or contraindications with taking Digest Aid?

You may react to this product if you have an allergy to:

  • Pineapple (listed as bromelain)
  • Papaya (listed as papain)
What's in Digest Aid?

Digest Aid is a comprehensive formula that includes the following broad range of enzymes (listed below with their functions) at clinically significant levels*:

  • Amylase - Breaks down carbohydrates
  • Lipase - Breaks down fats
  • Proteases (such as Trypsin and Pepsin) - Breaks down proteins
  • Cellulase - Breaks down fiber
  • Invertase - Breaks down sucrose
  • Alpha-galactosidase - Breaks down carbohydrates in legumes
  • Pectinase - Breaks down pectin found in fruits
  • Hemicellulase - Breaks down plant fibers
  • Lactase: breaks down lactose
  • Beta-glucanase - Breaks down beta-glucan, a special type of fiber found in yeast, grains and mushrooms
  • Bromelain is a mixture of proteolytic (digests proteins) enzymes from the pineapple used to support healthy inflammatory responses
  • Papain is a mixture of proteolytic enzymes from the papaya plant most commonly used for digestive support

Note: This product contains Bromelain (from pineapple) and Papain (from papaya) enzymes. This product is not recommended for those who are sensitive or allergic to those particular fruits.

How to Use Digest Aid
