Also, instead of any digestive enzymes or probotics, he told me to take a supplement made by Endo-met called " Betaine HCL and Pepsin " . I have tried to research it a little but was wondering if anyone has any advice on this. I think I feel more comfortable taking probotics and enzymes as most fo yuo have mentioned..

Should I still take some extra calcium?? If there is another vitamin recommened - does anyone have a website to order off of.
