    Constipation from Antacids

    Antacids can help enzymes be more effective. Enzymes are in a time-release capsule so they won't come out until they get to the intestine. That's how they're supposed to work, anyway. If stomach acid is high, it can eat thru the capsule before the intestine and um... something happens...

    just a question ( ur opinion)

    Weather you're sick or not, I say if your heart's not in it then don't bother with college. College really isn't for everybody.
