Yes I also take digestive enzymes about every meal, and an acid supplement. Been doing that for 6 years.
The final piece for me was the vitamin A. I take about 10000 IU a couple times a week.
I got super sick back in 2014 and was diagnosed with multiple intestinal infections including c-diff. Thought I was dying. Went to a natural practitioner and did IV ozone therapy on me. It was stunning that lymphnodes which had been swollen for months drained within 2 hrs after the first treatment. Two more rounds knocked it out 100%. The pioneer in that field is a ND out of the northwest. He claimed that the ozone protocol could knock out Ebola infection within 2-3 days.
HCL should be taken after a meal. Digestive enzymes before a meal. Also, systemic enzymes do not have their own locomotion. They must be titrated to have ootimal effect. One way to do it, is with HCL take about 2-2.5 hours after food then wait another hour to take the enzymes.
