Is anyone taking Zenpep rather than Creon? If so what foods work?

I take Creon and what has made a huge difference is the way I take it. For a main meal I eat a little but, then take one 25000 unit pill and another when I finish the meal. No diarrhea, feel great.

@cpblanco I was advised to take my Creon before my meal or snack for best results. I'm taking 3 capsules prior to meals and 2 capsules prior to snacks. The capsules contain 24,000 Units of Lipase, 76,000 Units of Protease & 120,000 Units of Amylase. After taking Creon for over a year I still forget to take it until I'm half finished my meal or snack and as much as an hour later if I gone out to eat and forgot to bring my pills with me. I definitely see the best results if I take all 3 caps prior to my first bite of food. Just my observation.
