Fungul Diastase + Pepsin Syrup

Fungal Diastase + Pepsin Syrup is available with the branding “SERVOZYME” and is a digestive supplement used mainly to cure gastrointestinal disorders. It is also an appetite enhancer (stimulates appetite) that successfully cures acid indigestion (heartburn), gas (flatulence), epigastric discomfort (pain in the upper abdomen), and eructation (belching). Fungal Diastase+pepsin may also be employed to cure other gastrointestinal disorders such as pancreatic insufficiency (lack of ability to form pancreatic enzymes) and abdominal pain. Indigestion is the failure to digest the complex form of food, with a sour stomach, formation of gas, along mild pain/discomfort in the stomach.

Fungal Diastase + Pepsin Syrup has two digestive enzymes: Fungal Diastase and Pepsin. Fungal diastase is a starch-hydrolysing enzyme that hydrolyses complex carbohydrates (polysaccharides, i.e. starch) into simple carbohydrates (monosaccharides, i.e. simple sugar). It facilitates digestion in chronic disease, bloating of the stomach, flatulence, and indigestion. Pepsin, on the other hand, is a protein-splitting enzyme that facilitates the breakdown of large protein molecules into small protein units (amino acids). Together, Fungal Diastase+pepsin thus addresses stomach ailments and digestive disorders.

Medical Benefits

• This medicine is beneficial in relieving stomach ailments such as indigestion, heartburn, gas, and abdominal pain.
• Fungal diastase is an enzyme that hydrolyzes starch or is an amylolytic enzyme, which hydrolyzes the starch into simple sugar (maltose) for carbohydrate, fat and protein easy digestion.
• Pepsin is a proteolytic enzyme (protein digesting) that hydrolyzes the large protein molecules into small proteins (amino acids).
• This composition thus induces the digestion of proteins and carbohydrates and aids in absorption of the intestine’s vital nutrients.
