Waterlilly: can you please explain your comment that PPIs help with food absorption? I don't understand how that can be if the point of the PPI is to drastically reduce your stomach acid, which is what breaks down your food to aid in absorption of nutrients. Thanks for the info!

I have EPI and my PPI helps the enzymes I take to digest food, helps malabsorption. It decreases my excessive acid to help digest food.
