What our patients say:

Especially if you have low stomach acid like many people, and older people. I'd been struggling with histamines in foods and getting nasal congestion and sneezing after eating high histamine foods, and then when I took 2 of these with my meal, my nose didn't run one bit! I find this amazing to say the least. I won't have to resort to restricted diets any more if I take this to support my digestion. If you do take this, you might not need any other supplements, but if you don't, you're wasting your money because your stomach won't be acidic enough to digest your food or supplements anyway.

Standard Process products never disappoint. With the Modern American Diet, even the hardest efforts can still leave our systems needing more enzymes. When I take this consistently, only one tablet per day, I never get indigestion.

Great for Keto. I would take plenty of Apple Cider Vinegar but would still experience gas on my fasting days after eating. Now I take 2 before my meals and feel much better now
