"These Alka-Mints work as well or better than Tums and are easier to break up by chewing, also, I love the spearmint flavor. No one else seems to make spearmint antacids."

"I've been taking these every day for months now, mostly because I don't eat much, and it helps a lot! The only downside to it is I have small bowel issues (to my knowledge at least), and these don't help, but the effects are minor."
