Yes, I used it a few times at the beginning of meals, when I was reacting, and having problems digesting my food. It did seem to help.

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

It made my stomach hurt. I have a cabinet full of bottles of supplements and medications but none of them helped. Diet is the only thing that has helped me.

Pat,

I hear you. I tried various digestion aids, also, and Betaine Hcl was the only one that didn't make me sicker, (maybe that's why I thought it helped. LOL). Even so, I only used it occasionally, when I was having episodes where my stomach seemed slow to empty.
