Really?

Dear Intestines,

Would it really kill you to function properly every once in a while? Really?

Because we would think, evolutionarily speaking, that it'd be easier for everyone involved if you actually worked the way you were supposed to.

Just a thought,
        The rest of nicole's body.

Three words:

Zygest
(Digestive enzymes. Take 2-4 with each meal, depending on how your body deals with what you're eating. Can take more if you're still uncomfortable.)

Theory: body produces less enzymes as we age. We need help.

and

Beta Pepsin
(HCl Acid. Take 1 with each meal.)

Theory: Believe it or not, reflux can be stopped if you take acid with your meals. If you have too little in your stomach, the body sends a message to MAKE MORE MAKE MORE MAKE MORE. Only, the acid doesn't actually show up until the food is no longer present. Hence, leftover excess acid, and icky. Take acid with meal = body is happy = no reflux.

I'm not a doctor, so talk to a nutritionist or professional to discuss other meds and herbs you're on. But my acupuncturist has said it's safe in combination with just about anything, and I've used these for years with no difficulty.

Thanks for the tip. What I really need to do is get over my paralyzing fear of disappointment and start trying things again. It's just that I hate getting my hopes up only to have them bashed down into a bloody pulp with a baseball bat.

Ah. Well my problems were related to swallowing anger. Also not recommended. But enzymes & acid truly do help on a day-to-day-basis.
