5.0 out of 5 stars Zypan is amazing!, April 26, 2008

Both my husband and I have been taking Prevacid for years now for GERDS (acid reflux). We have very different symptoms, his being heartburn, mine is a swallowing problem when I eat -esp. certain foods. We heard from a M.D./Naturopath that Zypan and vinegar (with the mother in it)could be helpful. We take 1-2 with each meal. My husband has totally gotten off Prevacid for several weeks and seldom has any problems at all. He's also almost completely off of the vinegar (used supplementally at first between meals as needed). Also his intestinal digestion has improved greatly. I have been off now for 3 weeks which is simply amazing for me (I couldn't miss even 1/2 a day without Prevacid) and am doing really well. I can't believe it. I was soooo scared of choking and asperating. What a relief to be off that harmful antacid cycle.
My sister has had Type I Diabetes for 40 years now and could NEVER have a normal BM. Now she does more than fine! Zypan is amazing!

5.0 out of 5 stars an absolute necessity for my daughter and I!, December 5, 2010

My daughter has been using Zypan for over two years with excellent results--in fact if we miss it for more than one or two meals you can see her stomach start to swell up (distension). I started using it a few months ago and wish I had tried it sooner. I have very low stomach acid and it has completely taken care of the debilitating stomach aches I got every time I ate, as well as helped my extremely bound up system become regular again (sorry if that's TMI, but if you're suffering with that like I was you'll want to know). My natural doctor said that when your liver and pancreas get over-taxed (for various reasons) it can slow down your production of digestive enzymes which then can cause severe stomach pain (and distension, bloating, gas, etc) and eventually leads to build-up of wastes in your system (poor/no elimination w/o help). It's a nasty cycle which builds on itself. Taking digestive enzymes takes some of the pressure off your pancreas and liver which allows them to heal and start producing enzymes again...which then leads to your system becoming more regular and functioning on its own again. This process takes time, though, especially if you have other things going on (we do), but one nice thing to keep in mind is that zypan is a whole-foods supplement and is not addicting.
PS My daughter is fairly young and has trouble swallowing pills so we crush hers up in a small amount of applesauce each time; it's not ideal but it works and she deals with the taste quite well. That's probably because she can feel such a difference with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars A MIRACLE PILL, January 19, 2009

I suffered from acid reflux for YEARS. I took Previcid, Prilosec, etc. Anything to help.
Then I went to a chropractor for tennis elbow and just ask out of the blue if he had something for acid reflux. He told me to try the Zypan. After a day it helped. Now I only take it occasionally, when I have a flair up. Yesterday I took 2 with lunch and 2 with dinner. Today, it is completely gone.
It is a miracle pill.
