Digestive Enzymes

Posted , 3 users are following.

I suffered for many years with hemorrhoids then anal fissures. I've finally gotten that under control but now have stomach troubles. Often after eating I get very bad gas pains, cramping then sometimes diarrhea. I've tried to figure out if certain foods are the culprit but can't determine. Has anyone tried digestive enzymes?

    Kathy,have you tried cutting out all dairy products?Milk seems to be in so many food products that you have to read all the ingredients on everything you buy. It certainly helped me. Yes,then I added probiotics in capsule form, which helped a lot.

    I also take a lactase enzyme if I am not too sure of the food I am eating,just in case it contains a dairy item. But not every day.

    hi Kathy, because you have health issues already go see your doctor and ask to see a dietitian, you have had a change in bowel habits that is the rules i was told and you need to know this!
