Review: It really works! Take with protein meals only! - Lately I’ve been having gut issues including acid reflux, bloating, indigestion etc. When I eat certain meals I notice I get full really fast then the other symptoms follow. After doing some research I decided to buy this. I took it with my first bite of breakfast and feel fine! But do your research and only take this with meals where there is PROTEIN as this will help break them down properly. Also make sure to get some l glutamine, aloe Vera gel, and zinc carnosine to help attack your gut issues at the source and heal them. These won’t heal your gut but they are a good supplement to take while you are in the process of healing and make digesting food so much easier.
Review: Used for heartburn - Help so much with heartburn. If you know you were gonna eat or drink acidic things take these before and you’ll have no problem. There is no taste. Small and easy to swallow.
