Pancrease

I currently take 5-6 pancrease MT-20's per meal. Even with this, they seldom help regulate me, my weight is low (about 120 lbs, 5'7"). I was curious how many others here take, how effective they seem, and any suggestions some of you may have. I take my enzymes about a half hour before I eat or I see no effects at all. I sometimes take them before, during and after as well (sometime doubling up on the dose if I eat a lot of veggies), still no changes. Weight has always been an issue with me, as is my vitamin levels. Sometimes my vit levels are close to non-existent.

Hi Kristoffer,
Trent takes 6 Ultrase before every meal and snack. He's about 5'9 and weighs around 170. Those seem to help him out quite a bit. I can always tell when he skips them at lunch time though!!!

I take three MT-16s. They help but I sometimes wonder if I even need them. I have never had any trouble keeping weight on, in fact I want to lose 5 pounds. But sometimes if I don't take them I get a stomach ache.
