Doctor's Best PepZin GI, Zinc-L-Carnosine Complex for Men & Women - Zinc Carnosine Supplement Caps for Gut Health, Digestive Support, & Stomach Comfort, Vegan, Gluten Free - 120 Veg Capsules

Okay I'm going to need you to hold onto whatever you're sitting on.. because this is going to blow you away. First off, I was skeptical of the reviews/ratings. Because how can a product with over 5K reviews and a solid 4.4 stars, I might mention, be THAT good? Nah.. But hey, I decided to give it a shot. Who knows? Maybe it'll actually help. As someone who has suffered from gastrointestinal issues for many years, I have been searching high and low for the most effective supplements without the high bill. My gastro issues had a domino effect and I succumbed to GERD, esophagitis, and gastritis to mention a few. These led to a constant unpleasant sulfur odor being emitted from my lungs/mouth without me having any control of this. I knew I desperately needed help. As someone who enjoys being social, gatherings became a big problem for me and mild depression began to set. To preface, I have tried everything from L-glutamine, Betaine HCl with bitters, turmeric/ginger capsules, probiotics, prebiotics, kefir, mastic gum, oregano oil, to fermented food and/or vegetables. Of course each for different purposes but all with the intent to eventually heal my detrimental stomach lining these gastro issues have caused. Desperate yet still hopeful, I came across this supplement and noticed beneficial effects from day 2 of use. Here's what I do- I take 2 capsules of Zinc Carnosine + Magnesium Glycinate every night before bedtime and I can literally feel the decreased inflammation when I wake up. There's no pain, no cramps, no bloating. I feel back to my normal self again. Is this a miracle pill? Probably not, but I will say it has significantly benefited me. I just wish I had my own personal endoscope to visibly see the dramatic effects but based on my symptoms, I am confident this is working. I am not fully healed but I'm only a week in and I am loving the effects. The sulfur odor is reducing, my stools are looking great, my brain fog has lifted, and the bloating is minimal. Just know- the key is consistency. If I can do it, you can too! I believe in you and your little healing gut. We got this!

I had acid reflux so bad I could not list all the problems it caused. I took Nexium for about a year until it wasn't enough and I went to 2 per day for several more years (and continued having symptoms of chronic gas and chronic nausea). My LES was (might still be) pretty much wide open and I was recommended for surgery but I felt it was crazy to have surgery when no Doctor could tell me what was causing the acid reflux in the first place! Acid reflux was making my life miserable. I sought out an Integrative Doctor and have taken several steps to rid myself of the reflux: sleeping on a wedge pillow, loosing weight, taking Yoga and exercising several times/wk, being tested for specific food allergies and avoiding certain foods, having genetic testing, changing my diet to limit processed foods and increase whole, organic foods, taking high level probiotics (50 - 80 billion) & taking several supplements to heal my intestines. I was also tested for heavy metals and underwent 24 IV chelation treatments (not for the faint of heart) because I had high levels of Lead and Mercury (among others) due to a genetic condition that keeps my body from being able to rid itself of toxins. I never could bring myself to do the GAPS diet but did add homemade bone broths and fermented vegetables to my diet. I tried the Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar treatment and it worked for about a month, then I had to quit because it was making my teeth more sensitive (had to have about 8 of them veneered because the acid from the reflux ate the enamel off). Keep in mind the above changes occurred over a period of almost 2 years. But, while all of the things I listed above helped relieve my symptoms, I never could get off the Nexium. The real irony is that Nexium keeps your body from absorbing B12 and B12 helps you rid your body of toxins. So the Nexium was like putting a band aid on a gaping wound. It was making everything worse for me. So, now to the review: Once I added this to my diet, I took if for a couple of months and was able to get down to 1 Nexium. I then took it for a couple of months and tried to come off the second Nexium. Just like when I took the ACV, it worked for about a month then my symptoms got worse. I called the Doctor to got back to 2 Nexium and (Thank God!) the prescription got hung up because insurance does not want to fill a 2/day prescription (runs around $1000). I had to just survive on OTC PPI's, DGL Licorice tablets and Gaviscon. I had one miserable week, then I noticed I started feeling better. I slowly weaned myself off those and now I am medication free (as far as acid reflux goes). I, honestly, can hardly believe it. I no longer have any acid reflux symptoms and have been medicine free for several months. The best part is that once I quit the Nexium my body became "regular" again. Nexium was adding to an already severe case of chronic constipation. I am not saying this product alone will rid you of your symptoms, but I can tell you that I literally tried everything and did not see real results until I used this product. I could probably write a book from all the information I have gathered from books & websites (and trial and error!) in my search to heal myself. I recommend, if anyone is plagued by the problems I have described, that you first find a Doctor that looks for the ROOT CAUSE of your problems and considers your diet part of your treatment. Then, be willing to spend the time and money that it takes to fully recover. Only a total lifestyle/mindset change helped me get better. And, believe me, I got lots of flak from family and friends when I started making these changes. But now they all are coming to me for advice because they see the profound change in my health. GOOD LUCK! Update: April 2015 Still Nexium free!!! After this review, I continued to struggle with occasional constipation and nausea (nothing on the level of before) so I decided to try going Gluten Free. It appeared to be at the root of my troubles. The constipation almost ended over night and I am rarely nauseous. I don't know if it is the gluten or the types of food that are made from wheat, and I really don't care! I do think it is important to not just replace these foods with GF substitutes on a broad scale (many GF processed foods have a higher glycemic index). The occasional baked good is OK, but eating whole foods is so much better. Processed food is processed food, don't let the marketers fool you by saying things are healthy just because they used some healthy ingredients like quinoa, lentil, black bean, etc. If the label has more than 3 - 5 ingredients, just avoid it. I have "fallen off the wagon" on exercise a time or two and find that when I get back into working out 4 or 5 times a week, I just feel better and have more energy. I no longer take tons of supplements. I still take a high dose probiotic and I take digestive enzymes with meals. Other than that, I take OTC Methyl Guard Plus for my genetic condition (2 codes on the MTHFR gene) and zyrtec for allergies. However, my allergies are much less than they have ever been and I think it is probably because my intestines are healing. I hesitate to even share this, because it is just so weird, but another thing I have done that (to my surprise) makes me feel much better, is (brace yourself) weekly coffee enemas. It is something I had read about and avoided for years until my doctor encouraged me and I am glad I gave it a try. It is supposed to help detoxify your liver and mine had been overloaded due to my genetic deficiencies. I think they are like Drano for the intestines. I really feel more comfortable and energized on the day I do them. Hope the update helps.

I’ve been using this PepZin GI supplement consistently and have been happy with it so far. The capsules are easy to swallow and don’t cause any stomach upset, which is something I’m always cautious about with zinc products. I appreciate that it’s non-GMO, vegan, and free from common allergens, which makes it easier to fit into my routine. While this isn’t something that works overnight, I’ve noticed it feels supportive when taken regularly, especially when my stomach is feeling off. It doesn’t have any noticeable taste or aftereffects, and I haven’t experienced nausea or discomfort. Overall, this seems like a well-formulated supplement from a reputable brand. If you’re looking for a zinc-carnosine option that’s gentle and straightforward, this one is worth considering.

i have been diagnosed with IBS for about 3 years now after contracting H Pylori and getting finished with a triple therapy regimen. I have tried everything for some time with no relief. In the end i finally figured out what works for me. Pepzin, DGL and Gastrazyme. The Pepzin works, DGL is better, Gastrazyme helps before the meal. DGL i take just one before going to bed. Pepzin i may take in the morning on an empty stomach. I felt the relief within days. the IBS still causes little discomfort from time to time but the regimen has greatly reduce the pain . opefully this helps some people out cause having to go the Proton Pump Inhibitor rout is probably not as great ever since they found constant use can lead to stomach cancer.
