@vinnie694 - I have been using Creon for more than a year. It is a mixture of pancreatic enzymes(which due to surgery my pancreas does not produce, or not enough, anyway). It helps digesting the foods we eat, instead of them going straight to waste. It is rather expensive, but I clearly am benefitting from it , e.g. no running to the bathroom 15 min after eating, and most of the vitamins and minerals we consume are staying in my body.
