I am currently on Ultrase MT-18...my dosage depends on what I am actually going to eat. I used to always take them right before I was going to eat..that's how I've been taking them for a cool 23 years. But Steve Jones a CF RN out of New York (some of you may see him?let me know..) was a guest speaker last month at a meeting I went to. He insisted that we take our enzymes 8-15 minutes before we eat so it is at the bottom of our stomach waiting for the food (no sooner or later)..since doing so I haven't noticed a huge difference but have noticed I have had more "sinkers" in the toilet. He says that's a main questions he asks all of his patients "sinkers or floaters" and before changing any dosages or anything he has the patients change when they are taking them and how many with what foods.
He mentioned that we need to get away from the standard "5 with meals 4 with snacks" kinda thing..Instead he insists that we need to judge on what we are eating and how much fat is in it then we make an appropriate decision.
I learned a lot from this guy..unfortunately it hasn't helped my blockage out too much haha but I have changed my enzyme regimen. He says he has had great success with patients BMI's who tweek when they take their pills.
