I dont think you need to. Enzymes are more for the fat content of things. I also dont think drinking a lot of soda/pop to gain weight is the best way. Many have tons of caffein which dehydrate you, its empty calories instead of healthy ones and doesnt CF give you enough gas? BUT to answer your ?? your Creon wont help with soda.

I am not one to preach the don't drink sodas thing because I myself overdosed on sodas growing up. That being said I wanted to tell you a few things you may or may not already know.

1) Soda acts as a diuretic. It will make you go and can dehydrate you so in essence you will keep getting thirsty and wanting more to drink and keep drinking it and in turn making the situation worse in a sense.

2) Sodas contain EMPTY calories. They have high caloric content but no fat or protein, so you are taking on all those calories for nothing. You are better served to ditch a soda at night and have a bowl of ice cream or some type of high calorie, high protein, high fat meal if you are looking to gain weight.

You will probably find if you cut back on sodas that you don't do to the bathroom as much, your stomach feels better, and you will gain some weight if you substitute a different kind of snack for a soda or two throughout the day.

You could TRY taking an enzyme with the sodas if you want I guess, but I never really saw the point - as Mel said they are mostly for Fat not sugars.

Take Care,
Lindsey

I do not agree to the "empty calories" thing... Sodas contain lots of sugar, so healthy or not, if your pancreas is still working or you use enough insulin with it, the sugar will be taken out of the blood and changed into fat in the fat-cells.
