Enzy-Me

Well, I think I’m feeling a little better. I’ve been watching what I’ve been eating. It’s been sadly bland. I’ve been drinking more ginger ale than caffeinated soda — just can’t seem to break that habit.

I stopped by Wild Oats the other day and discovered that they sell Aloa Vera juice in several different flavors so I think I’ll be buying my juice from them in the future. I’ve been drinking about 5 or 6oz of that every night right before bed. Supposedly that’s supposed to really help with healing the stomach lining.

But that really wasn’t doing enough. I mean, the problem was that I felt the acid in my throat and could “taste” things later. I couldn’t bend over without a pain in the chest and a sharp “taste” of a previous meal or snack. Life was a constant annoyance. It’s just not ladylike to be burpy all of the time.

So I chatted with the guy in Wild Oat’s homeopathic section and we did some research in their little “library”. I came home with a bottle of Enzyme Complex and have been taking two before each meal. He suggested that if things felt heavy after a meal, I could take 2 more. I tried taking them all day yesterday and today and so far, things have been a little better. I don’t expect things to be better overnight, though I wish, I wish.

Now, how am I going to explain the gallon of Aloe Vera juice to Customs on my way into the UK?
