Gut: Although PPI therapy can be helpful short run, sometimes for the long run it can reduce stomach acid an cause problems with digestion. Gut problems typically need a multifactorial approach. Stay away from coffees, teas, soda, tobacco. Consider the followng: probiotics, bovine colostrum, digestive enzymes. Paradoxically some people actually need to take more acid especially when then eat.
