I had been taking digestive enzymes for a while and noticed a slight positive effect. I talked to my GI doc about them and he totally poo-pooed them,(no pun intended!) saying that I didn't need them - that we have all the enzymes we need in our bodies to digest our food. So I stopped taking them, but continue to have problems. Many times it seems that food just sits there, in my stomach, and doesn't move along as it should. Are there others out there that have similar problems that have been helped with digestive enzymes? Also, what about probiotics? What brands are the best or have been best for those of you that have used them or are using them? I realize that it's probably an individual thing, but I'm wondering what brand would be good to use shoud I decide to try them again. Thanks for your input!
By the way, I'm IBS-C with very occasional D and acid reflux (actually, NERD or non-erosive reflux disease, as my latest GI told me after my last EGD!)
