The side effects of Diastase + Pepsin are:

  • Diarrhoea
  • Abdominal Pain
  • Feeling of sickness
  • Skin Rash

How Diastase + Pepsin works

  • Diastase, commonly known as alpha-amylase, is an enzyme derived from the controlled fermentation of fungi, particularly Aspergillus oryzae. Its primary function involves the breakdown of complex carbohydrates, such as starch, into simpler sugars like maltose in the digestive tract, facilitating carbohydrate digestion.
  • Pepsin, a key enzyme in gastric juice, helps digest proteins from foods like meat, eggs, seeds, and dairy. In pancreatic insufficiency, where the pancreas doesn’t produce enough enzymes, pepsin is often used as a replacement. Hormones regulate the production of pancreatic enzymes, and disruptions in this process can affect digestion. Conditions like cystic fibrosis, pancreatic cancer, pancreatitis, and pancreatic surgery may require enzyme replacement therapy due to inadequate enzyme production.
