    With all these concerns about Lanzoprazole - why are we taking it - isnt there another / better way to improve the problem - I stopped after reading that it gave a high % of of rats cancer when tested - any one got any decent advice on what kick starts the acid release - white bread does it for me everytime -but not spicy food ?

    Taking Lansoprazole for a number of digestion \"issues\". I have had no ill effects and the tablets have helped reduce all my previous symptoms so I only have positive things to say.

    I'm on 1 x 30mg per day and always take it before a fibrous breakfast which I believe helps eliminate any possible side effects.

    I found that fatty foods in general are difficult for my body to digest and changing my diet along with taking the tablets has had a positive effect on my health. I have also cut out much of the bread and pasta I used to eat which causes bloating and excess acid production.

    I appreciate that it may not work for some people but it's good for me and I certianly fell much better for it.
