Remember though - when your period comes - you may have to increase the dosage from 1 to 2 tablets as it says on the package.
Do you know why you have to do that?? What is it about the period that changes things? I'm just curious. I started mine today, and forgot to up my dose, so I guess I'll take another one with lunch.

The package says - Trigger events, trigger foods, being sick with a cold or flu or menstrusting may also require supplementing whatever dose you may find best. I found that I did have to take it when I got my period - would assume this is due to hormones.
I also take Acacia 2 Tablespoons a day.

I just wanted to add that I've been taking Digestive Advantage for a week now and I can see an improvement!
I'm mostly stable following Heather's diet, but I can imidiately tell when I've cheated. This last week I've been the most stable since starting the diet in Jan, and I've fallen off the wagen twice (and I flew to LA for the weekend, which usually sets me off a little).
So I say thumbs up for DA!

I started it last week, but I was also on my period so my tummy was not happy. Anyway, there was a whole lot of gas/bloat last week, and I was in the ER on Sunday night. So, no progress yet (and maybe some negative progress), but I'm feeling fine today.
I'll keep you updated.

I'm an A - I've been taking the DA for 2 or 3 weeks now and it I have hardly any gas/bloat compared to what I used to get. I used to get crippling pain daily for hours - not I get it every few days and it is manageable. I vote "YAY" for DA!!!

Why have I never heard of this before? Is it new? I think I'm going to buy it today, and I feel excited about it. Does it really work? Better than other meds?

It's enzymes and some amino acids. My box is at home, so I'm not sure exactly, but the website is http://www.ganedenbiotech.com
