Was very skeptical but it works
I have acid reflux, had my gallbladder removed several years ago and suffer from IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). I had been taking Nexium for years but my health care provider upped the copay so I began looking for alternatives. Papaya enzymes are great for occasional heartburn but for severe cases such as mine it never relieves symptoms for more than an hour or so. I saw several reviews for this product saying it helped a lot with reflux. Plus, the added benefit of better digestion sounded too good to be true. I have now been taking this product for a week. I still have a bit of reflux sporadically but isn't enough to require taking anything for it and doesn't last more than a few minutes. Most products you have to take 30 minutes before a meal and I would usually forget until I was ready to eat. You take this one three times a day with meals. ADDED BONUS: I have lost five pounds this week.
UPDATE 11/15/2012: It has now been four months that I have been taking this supplement. I couldn't be more happy. I have NO heartburn. My IBS is almost nonexistent and I feel great. I will never be without this product.
UPDATE 01/05/2013: I am still taking this supplement everyday and I have NO acid reflux, heartburn, and/or indigestion. This supplement has gotten rid of ALL my IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) symptoms completely.
