5.0 out of 5 stars A Really Good Idea for Those Over 60, July 27, 2010

This review is from: Solaray High Potency HCl With Pepsin - 250 Capsules (Health and Beauty)

I have the privilege of being a senior citizen, I earned that right one day at a time over a period of many years; contrary to what some young people believe, I have zero interest in being young again; I've already been there, done that, and got the T-shirt!

Being a senior citizen offers both advantages and disadvantages; one of the disadvantages is the reduced production of gastric hydrochloric acid, which compromises the breakdown of complex carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. In addition there is the problem of reduced function in other digestive organs resulting in less effective absorption of vital nutrients.

We need not despair as there is a wide array of supplements available that can help alleviate this problem; one of these is the Solaray HCL with Pepsin being reviewed here. The way I use the Solaray is in conjunction with Twinlab Super Enzyme Caps; what I've discovered works best for me is a combination of the two products taking one of each with every meal. This combination does the job for me and also saves money!

We all have different requirements and you may need to experiment with combinations to see what works best for you; the good news is you have many options that can help you deal with digestive challenges. A little experimentation should provide a workable solution.

4.0 out of 5 stars Digestive Aids, July 8, 2007

By 

B. Cazador "Truth Seeker" (Silver Spring, Maryland USA) - See all my reviews

I really like this digestive aid. I take three capsules before a meal and man does it make the difference. I don't know if this product is right for you but for me it's a blessing. Now, after using this product, my stomach doesn't hurt after I eat. I know that this review is subjective but, again, this product works for me.

3.0 out of 5 stars Works only with large doses, April 23, 2010

This review is from: Solaray High Potency HCl With Pepsin - 250 Capsules (Health and Beauty)

I have used many brands of HCL as I have to take it prior to eating in order to avoid severe stomach pain. I picked up the Solaray recently when my go-to brand was out of stock. While it does work (it is HCL, after all) you don't get much bang for your buck. While I only take 2 pills of my go-to brand before each meal, I had to take at least 5 Solaray capsules to get similar results. It would probably be a good choice if you need a low dosage of HCL, but if you are like me and need around 1200mg with each meal, this is not the economical choice.
